A fun little Monday number right here. This is a response to this week's mini challenge - to write a song where the title is a question. I was struggling for ideas, so I started typing question words (who, what, why, etc) into Google, and jotting down all of the auto-fill suggestions. Suddenly it dawned on me - why not write a song about the most common questions people ask Google? So I did; all the questions in the song are the some of the most common ones people ask Google. Whilst I've poked a bit of fun at it, I was struck by the fact that whilst all these people are searching for these things in secret and no doubt feeling alone, they're questions that lots of us want to ask. I hope they found the answers they were looking for.
No big production this time - just guitar and vocals. I also recorded it quite late in the evening, so I had to keep the volume down, but hopefully you get the idea.
What am I, Google?
Please tell me, Google,
I really need to know.
Oh please just tell me,
When's it going to snow?
What am I, Google?
Am I overweight?
Please tell me, Google,
Who shot JFK?
I really need an answer,
Won't you tell me what to do?
Please tell me, Google, what am I?
And why am I asking you?
Please tell me, Google,
Why am I so tired?
What am I, Google?
And when do you think I'll die?
Can you tell me if I'm pregnant?
And if I am, are we in love?
Or am I just a psychopath?
Or all of the above?
Why do cats purr?
Why do we dream?
Where is Chuck Norris?
Who unfriended me?
Do I have depression?
Should I quit my job today?
Am I an alcoholic?
Am I gay?
What am I, Google?
I really need to know.
Where am I, Google?
I've got nowhere else to go.
