This is sort of a goof of a song I came up while waiting to work on the set of a film I was working on on Thursday, 2/3. I had actually started to work on a different song on Wednesday, but that song became such a big one that I realized I wouldn't have time to do it justice, so I decided to put that off for another time. But the idea of this average trifle of a song (wink) came yesterday and I fleshed it out today.
It is Plain Jane
It's just Average Joe
It's sort of okay
It's merely so-so
It's middle of the road
About halfway there
Its almost good
But more than fair
It straddles the fence
It's not offensive
It's a little bit light
But it's just about right
About halfway there
Not a little too much
Overwhelms, no no
It's white bread and such
It is polite to think of mayo when I think of white bread
But mayo is the ultimate form of condiment
And there are mayos with chives and wasabi and flavors that are way fun
Of course, the one that is plain is the one that is really the main one. And the sane one.
This song is Plain Jane
It's merely so-so
Not for a maverick
But for your Average Joe
About halfway there
Not a little too much
Overwhelms, no no
It's white bread and such
This song's for you
And you and you
Yes you and you
And you and you
And you and you
And you and you
Yes you and you
But now it's through
Yes, now it's through
Hey hey it's through
Through and through
It's really through
Yes now it's through
Woe, yes it's through
Thank god it's through
Wait....it's finally through
The end

Very nice vocal and love the humour on the words, enjoyed the listen.

Great fun. Live the rhyme on one and one in the bridge.
Lovely uke sound too. Great delivery as well.
@kahlo2013 Feb 2022
Fabulous word play with wonderfully familiar phrases written so succinctly. Really fun! Flows well and your uke and vocal delivery is perfect! Made me smile!

Really enjoyed the wordplay in this song! Very clever. The condiment section was really fun.
@eas3637 Feb 2022
This song is perfectly acceptable! :)
Just kidding - it's amazing! Such funny lyrics - hilarious message and light tough. Love "It straddles the fence/It's not offensive."

Very cute! - love the ending. It's fun to make a song out of almost nothing, isn't it?! (and thanks for your comments on my 1st song - I am trying to work out the recording end this year - my 2nd done in GarageBand)

It's sort of a Seinfeld song "making something out of nothing". The rhymes are cute, and the playing is solid as usual. I like the mayo comments (although I think mayo is disgusting myself!)

I've been away for a couple of days working on a film. I started working on another song Wednesday, but as I worked on it, it turned out to be a bigger song that I knew that I was going to have the time for. But yesterday, I came up with an idea for a this simple song. I was able to flesh it out today, Friday, and here it is in all it's "mediocre" glory.
