My Daughter’s Seventh Birthday Song
Thanks to all of you who helped me with ideas for my girl’s b-day song. I carry the High School Musical b-day party theme through to the song, except I make the distinction that HSM is not real and sing about how her life is so much more fabulous. I played this song live for her b-day (just removed the guitar and vocal tracks) as Crash Lightning (http://www.crashlightning.com) and the performance was a hit. I never actually got around to making a decent recording with a bass track, but here’s my “demo” with first take vocals singing into my MacBook’s built in microphone. Stick around for the Euro dance groove at the end.

I got up today
I thought about all my dreams last nightAnd though they were nice
My real life is so much betterOn film it looks great
But it only just keeps repeatingIt’s just a storybook tale
It’s only something that I’ve been dreamingSorry Troy, sorry Gab
This is my life and it’s way to fabTonight, you’ll be dreaming all about me
Look at my life, I’m as wild as the seaIt’s just like they say
Except I’m more fabulous this wayThis has just begun
And I won’t stop rockin’ ‘til I’m done‘Cause this is for real
I’m turning seven yeah that’s the dealAnd I got the style
And all the moves that you’ll want to stealSorry Troy, sorry Gab
This is my life and it’s way to fabTonight, you’ll be dreaming all about me
Look at my life, I’m as wild as the seaWhen it’s said and done
I’ll be as bright at noonday sunSo stick around with me
I’ll take you higher than the bourgeoisie‘Cause this is for real
I’m turning seven yeah that’s the dealAnd I got the style
And all the moves that you’ll want to stealSorry Troy, sorry Gab
This is my life and it’s way to fabTonight, you’ll be dreaming all about me
Look at my life, I’m as wild as the sea
