Dailies 0x0A.09: Thirty-two rhymes in triplet time (2:08)

Triplet time. Some people call it Marilyn Manson time. Some call it the glam beat. Me, i've just rapped in it. Took the better part of several hours, loads of takes, a quick mixing session and here it is. It's not a serious song, more a case of doing something three-quarter-arsed to see how well i could do it and inspire me to do it better next time. :)

Sixty-four lines in triplet time, that's thirty-two different rhymes to find
as an exercise in surmising whether a triplet rhythm is actually better
or worse for verse than good old four on the floor, so let's be sure that
the groove that we're using is phat, delivering lyrics intact
bouncing up and down like a kangaroo on a trampoline and if you
aren't at least nodding your head on tapping your foot as you listen i may have to put
my foot down and demand you get into this groove here! what'll it take to get you to move here?
sorry for that cheesy rhyme; that'll be the last time

Eight down, twenty-four to go - quality control? nah, i don't think so
'cause it's better to play like this, to let fly with whatever i come up with
that's no matter how crazy or strange or confusing, amusing, perplexed or deranged
the result is in the end and it's worth it to play instead of feeling shameful it isn't perfect
to experiment with the parameters, to enjoy and create is what matters
building the skills to take me where i wanna go, fuck around to find out what i wanna know
and my playground is sound
i've said it before and i'll say it again - experimentation is not my enemy, it's my friend

i count sixteen done, sixteen left - uh, are you stick of me yet?
stupid Australian-accent git, rapping robotically, dribbling shit
apparently unaware of the fact that obviously skips should never rap
what the hell could a skip ever say? "I really miss Hey Hey it's Saturday.."
and i'm losing my will to write here, lacking musical play and delight here
but i have no choice in it because freestyling would be worse than this
Rhyme 23 is Shout out to Eris, goddess of Discord who's always there for us
RIP Pope Bob and all the rest, thanks for the wisdom, you've been the best

did I mention - and this is no lie - i get my best rap tips from Stephen Fry,
The Ode Less Travelled, the book he wrote about writing poetry - this is no joke!
i bought it in London on Oxford Street and sat at Marble Arch waiting to meet
my good friend Sandroo getting some tips on rhyme and of course rhythm too
consonance, assonance, slant rhyme, iambic pentameter and i'm
pleased to say, it's improved my flow, thank you Mr Fry
now we're out of beats it's time to wrap it up with one more rhyme
so thanks for the download, my name is Kurrel the Raven - hello!
