HALF HOUR SONGWRITE - 2/6/19 - IRL - A Digital Doomsaying for @improv's WORST POP CULTURE TRENDS? Pick-a-Prompt - a Dtube exclusive!

---

It's video game vagary time on the HALF HOUR SONGWRITE CHALLENGE!

@improv's prompt actually shocked me, as I'd not yet heard of VIDEO GAME TEABAGGING, a reprehensibly obnoxious practice that definitely deserved to win the prize today. Coming in a close second were @wonderwop's MAN BUNS, and @mimismartypants' POM-POMS ON SHOES.

Congratulations @improv! 4 Steem Basic Income shares coming your way :)

Thanks as always to all the promptketeers! You guys rock in an epic manner and I couldn't do it without you :)

Lyrics:

IRL

IRL you can't respawn
And yes, it's just a game
But still it seems wrong
Come on...
We're only ghosts in a machine

So no one can see your face?
That doesn't mean your soul is safe
In this place
No one can hear you scream

And you are
Your avatar
So better hope
That you respawn
IRL

IRL

Reality
Is virtual
But you should take
It personal
IRL

IRL

'Cause if you look too close
You can see your ghost
In its hard candy robot shell

IRL

HALF HOUR SONGWRITE CHALLENGE is an ongoing daily Dtube vlog. Each day I challenge myself to write a song in 30 minutes, using a one word prompt provided by viewer suggestion through the PICK-A-PROMPT contest, or by @mariannewest's daily freewrite on the Steem blockchain.

On Sunday I'll be finishing one song from this week's Half Hour Songwrite Challenge, and posting the completed version. But on THURSDAY you, the viewers, get to decide which one! Thursday's video will feature numbered clips of each of the song fragments composed this week, and you get to vote for the one you'd most like to see made into a finished song. So be sure to tune in on Thursday and vote!
