Art For Art´s Sake - SHT Musik

Here is one of my favorite songs by SHT Musik (me) because it is all about creating stuff just for the fun of it.    The internet, YouTube, Bandcamp etc. have given us a great platform to share our creations and even if I never make a cent from my "art" I really don't care.    I remember the first time I got my hands on a tape recorder back  in the ' 70s and recorded myself singing along to a song by the BeeGees.   You can see that 40 years later I'm still going at it!   So as the lyrics say, "this song is not for primetime"  but I hope some people will find it entertaining.    

NOT FOR PRIMETIME 

This song is not for primetime 
This song is not worth a dime 
This song is my life of crime 
This song is not worth your time 
----------------------------- 

Art for art´s sake fabrication 
Put a face on inspiration 
Here you have my speculation 
My best guess extrapolation 


Open heart to heart
Art just for the sake of art 
Everybody take part 
Art just for the sake of art 
----------------------------- 

This boy is not for primetime 
This boy is snips and snails and slime 
This boy is way past his prime 
This boy is taking his time 
----------------------------- 

Art for art´s sake good vibrations 
Existential revelation 
The high the low the modulations 
Travel space time generations 


Open heart to heart
Art just for the sake of art 
Everybody take part 
Art just for the sake of art 
----------------------------- 

The closer to death you are 
The easier it becomes 
Art for art´s sake hell yeah x 4 (all) 
----------------------------- 

This life is not for primetime 
This life is an uphill climb 
This life is all guts and grime 
This life is just killing time 


Open heart to heart
Art just for the sake of art 
Everybody take part 
Art just for the sake of art 


Art for art´s sake fascination 
With the world and love´s temptation 
Haters call it masturbation 
I am shameless it´s my salvation

Open heart to heart
Art just for the sake of art 
Everybody take part 
Art just for the sake of art
