How do you put your thoughts into lyrics?

[Manslick]

I am having a hard time writing lyrics. I have a crap tone of ideas and i do not know how to put them in song form. Any advice?

I know, you want song form.
Hit song - toe sucking fans.
Or poets who play.
Big song.
Big.
Catchy - funny - bright -
Current.
"Colloquial?" , She said in the slow, low sun set and you nodded yes.
How could you not?
When her brown eyes, so earnest.
Looked you up.
I saw you agree in soliloquy.
Well, me too - damn - I mean
Who wouldn't?
Me not.
I may catch my breath?

Boy, this girl is swimmy.
And they call me Jimmy.
Breast stroke.
Do some c0ke like all the other broke folk on the campus
anyone got a clean lamp?

Got to work at it everyday.
Heed your own word old man!

thoughts into lyrics.​

green bean.
a girl I seen
looked toward me
again

green bean
the girl I seen
is gone

so I seen a green bean girl
I said it to my mother
mother looked at me and said
"I know, - my little boy"

but mother..
"slow your roll my little boy
you not even a teen"
I wriggled

I danced
I flew a kite
I sweated hard
I sat with the fan in my face

hoping to come clean.

My answer is don't think just write, yes write about anything that comes into your thoughts than read it back after you may have written a page or so, next edit it.
That's it.

Truthful answer....I have no clue. I just shove 'em where ever they sound ok to me and then wing it from there. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

Count me in.

I type words, scratch words with a pencil or say words to my sweet wife.

For what is pop music without words?
