Oh Yeah
This song is about a smooth rich guy singing about the lavish life he lives. Lots of this song was inspired by Mark Ronson's "Uptown Funk", which I aimed for this song to have the same feel as. On the sheet music, some of the notes for the singing part are replaced with x's and indicate words that are meant to be spoken instead of sung. In the choruses, the idea for the melody and harmony part for the rock organ was something that I've had in my mind for years, but never found a song to put it in until now.
OHH YEAH!!

Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Eight in the morning kickin’ outta bed
Get the energy flowin’, let out all the dread
Call my butler over, bring a beverage
Cause today we out to go get some bread
In these busy streets, hot dang busy streets
I be strollin’ down in these slacks so sweet
These people here who got places to be
They’ll step aside, step aside for me
And the ladies here, see me walkin’ by
Pullin’ off the shades, so to catch a sight
Checkin’ out my looks, cause I feel so fly
Nothin’ here gonna ruin this style of mine
Got the hair, and the shades, and the shoes and the coat
And ya can’t forget that bod, oh no!
Just to show my quirks, gotta give ‘em a wink
So to sweep ‘em off, sweep ‘em off their feet
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And never call me insignificant
I’ll never ever be irrelevant
Cause I’m always the one
Who’s at the top
I’m so cool I can’t reiterate
Exactly just how I’m so great
Oh yeah!
[Chorus 1]
Can’t help but say “Oh yeah!”
Can’t help but shout “Oh yeah!” Come on!
Oh yeah! Come on!
Uhn!
[Verse 2]
At the bar, here to get respect
Grab a quick drink, then I drop a check
All these eyes here, checkin’ out my gleam
As I say to everyone “Dinner’s on me!”
By the curb, comes my limousine
Steppin’ on in, hear all the sweeties
Cause when you got a guy so fine such as I
There’s no doubtin’ that he’s up so high
And my butler here, right behind the wheel
As I lay in the back, cause the chill is real
This cruisin’ here, just feels so nice
Nothin’ here gonna ruin these vibes tonight
Hit the pool, and the club, and the theater too
Cause without a few pit stops, can’t do!
All around these blocks, I’m loved
And this night, tonight, I'll make the most of
[Pre-Chorus 2]
So much sharper than your kitchen knife
Better watch out before I steal your wife
Cause I’m always the cream of the crop
Got more class than a royal king or queen
Even slicker than the floor of a new ice rink
[Chorus 2]
Can’t help but say “Oh yeah!” Come on!
Can’t help but shout “Oh yeah!” Come on!
Oh yeah! Come on!
Uhn!
[Bridge]
{Whisper Spoken} So fine,
No fool ever gonna get under my skin
So fly,
There ain’t goin’ be a time where I don’t take the win
So fine,
Even the president dazzles from my sight
So fly,
It doesn’t take much from me to dissolve a fight
So fine,
One look at me and they’ll get the gist
So fly,
Nobody gettin’ in the way of all this bliss
So fine,
No spark of mine ever gonna get diffused
So fly,
Don’t try and beat me it ain’t no use
[Final Chorus]
Oh yeah!
Can’t help but say “Oh yeah!”
Feelin’ so good gotta shout out, “Oh, yeah!”
Uhn!
