Wordle (Snippet)

Liner Notes

One of my stupid and/or brilliant ideas this year is to write a series of Snippets. These are random ideas that pop up based on a word, or a phrase, or whatever. Stuff that is catchy and fun, but in no way warrants a full song. In this case, it maybe warrants 22 seconds, which is where it's at now. I'm hoping this helps burn through my lyrical backlog of stuff that needs a home.

This is the second Snippet, and came from a real-life story about that time I got Wordle in three. This isn't anything new. According to the stats the app keeps, I've gotten Wordle in three 291 times. Three is ideal, really. Two? Eh, you got lucky with either your starting word or your random guess. I've gotten two 40 times. Four? Meh. Whatever. I've gotten Wordle in four 405 times. I don't remember a single one of them. Four is for schmucks with day jobs. Like me, really.

Musically, just bring me all of the 1980s synths. All of them. And play them all at the same time. Yaaaasssssss. When I found this synth bass patch, I passed out and woke up on the floor two days later. And this song didn't need three-part harmony, but eh, it's only 22 seconds long, why not keep adding useless stuff?

Incidentally, if this (or any eventual Snippets) make you think "No way! John's wrong! This needs to be longer than Bohemian Rhapsody!", have at it.

Lyrics

I got my Wordle in three
No one is better than me
Getting two is just the luck of the draw
Four or more is just a regular blah
I got my Wordle in three
