(Intro – stacked harmonies)
Ooooh yeah… (ahhh)
Ooo-wah ooo… (doo-wop, doo-wop)
Yeah yeah yeah…
⸻
(Verse 1)
I made a video, tried to be cool,
Ended up lookin’ like a fool,
I worked so hard, but she didn’t care,
Rena wasn't impressed with my video share
⸻
(Pre-Chorus)
And I thought maybe I’ve been doin’ it wrong
Tryin’ too hard instead of writing my songs
⸻
(Chorus)
Stick to makin’ songs for Rena (ooh-wah ooh)
I’m gonna stick to makin’ songs for Rena (doo-wop, doo-wop, doo-wop)
I can’t make a video to save my life
That's what Rena said the other night
So I’ll keep hummin’ along for Rena (ahh-ahh ahh)
⸻
(Post-Chorus – harmonies)
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da (ooh yeah)
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da (for Rena)
⸻
(Verse 2)
Made videos and crazy scenes,
Crabs and chaos on a screen,
But nothin’ hits like a simple tune,
Jotting down thoughts by the light of the moon
⸻
(Pre-Chorus)
I may never have a big-time show
But I might have a song on the radio
⸻
(Chorus)
Stick to makin’ songs for Rena (ooh-wah ooh)
I’m gonna stick to makin’ songs for Rena (doo-wop, doo-wop, doo-wop)
I can’t make a video to save my life
Rena made that clear the other night
So I’ll keep singin’ along for Rena (ahh-ahh ahh)
⸻
(Bridge – slow, harmony-driven)
Ooooh… when the words roll in
And the night gets cool again
I don’t need the world to see
Rena said songs are the only thing for me
(Ooo-wah… ooo-wah…)
⸻
(Break – upbeat, playful)
Yeah I tried, yeah I tried (doo-wop, doo-wop)
But my videos don’t lie (ahh-ahh)
So I’ll laugh it off and grab a pen
Sit down and write some songs again
⸻
(Final Chorus – bigger, stacked harmonies)
Stick to makin’ songs for Rena (ooh-wah ooo!)
I’m gonna stick to makin’ songs for Rena (doo-wop, doo-wop, doo-wop!)
I can’t make a video to save my life
That's what Rena said the other night
So I’ll keep writin' new songs for Rena (ahh-ahh ahh)
⸻
(Outro)
Ooooh yeah… (for Rena)
Doo-wop, doo-wop… (for Rena)
