That's great Hendo!

Just reading it out loud, a tune came to me, but I am no songwriter
and have no idea of how to convey it to you.  I'm sure others will as
well.

Do you actually run out of blue 2x2's?  I find them to be among the
most plentiful... I think it would be better to use a slightly more
rare piece for the chorus.  Otherwise, I think it's great!

One More Blue Two by Two
Lyrics by Hendo

Oh, I've been building all these years
Through sweat and through tears
Sure hurts when I step on 'em barefooted.

Some bricks are brand new
And a few of them blue
But so many are old and sun muted.
But...

CHORUS:
I need just one more blue, two by two
I've got thousands of blocks
But they're caught up in MOCs
And I need just one more blue... two by two

I've built castles with towers
Bought my trees and my flowers
And seen armies of minis galore.

Now I'm thinking of space
And building a Moonbase
But I'm one piece short for this floor.
'Cause...

CHORUS.

I've got plenty red plates
And some doors and some gates
I've even got a Lego® tattoo.

I've sorted my Freestyle
Yeah, it took me a while
But I still don't know what to do.
'Cause...

CHORUS.

CHORUS REPEAT.

:)

(...) That should be no problem. Just hook up a mic to your PC, sing the song unaccompanied, save it as an MP3 and transfer it using Kazaa! Could be a hit... (22 years ago, 19-May-03, to lugnet.fun)
