Liner Notes
Lyrics
everyone at the club was getting so turnt so turnt everyone hit the quan and did other trendy dance moves
i didn't get to go i had homework homework i didn't do it before it took me all night i cried
everyone at the club was taking selfies and stuff everyone did the nae-nae the dab and the whip what fun
i didn't get to go i had homework homework i didn't do it before and it took me all night i cried

The FOMO hits strong. I can relate to the narrator. Not sure how, just I can empathise in a way.
Like a mix of Rufus Wainwright and Bare Naked Ladies... Solid song!
You didn't even get to do The Whip. How sad is this?? You know, I used to be a teacher. Now I regret ever giving homework.
I like the simple trudging piano as a backing for your very emotional vocal delivery, slowing down towards the end of the line to give the vocal performance a feeling of hesitancy. Feels like something to listen to on a rainy day after getting splashed by a nearby car. Great work!
Brilliant bit of theatre, this, well worth the effort, and the use of varied time and emotion in the presentation absolutely makes it!
