about

I thought I'd give ChatGPT a chance to help me write a song based on an idea I had. ChatGPT is good at reflecting back to me what it is I want the theme to be and it's good at rhyming.

Following my directions on alliteration, rhyming schemes, syllable count, or most other structural constraints I tried to put on it was mostly unsuccessful. I found that it was most frustrating when it made a mistake, I would bring it's attention to it and it would apologize and continue to repeat that same mistake no matter how it claimed to know what it was I was asking it.

I think it's useful for brainstorming and for giving a list of words that rhyme.

I used the Canva AI text to image for the album cover.

lyrics

Verse 1:
In a sea of suits, drowning deep within the crowd,
Lost my sense of self, just a name that’s disavowed.
From onboarding, to performance review,
The tide is roaring, as I sink into the blue.

Chorus:
Human Resources we’re supplying
Bodies for the queue
Human Resources we’re consuming
Someone just like you

Verse 2:
At the boardroom table, the entrees take their seats,
There’s a push and pull to see who gets to eat.

Chorus:
Human Resources we’re supplying
Bodies for the queue
Human Resources we’re consuming
Someone just like you

Bridge:
Cast away your fears
Cast away desires
He provides in time
Casting steel in the fire
To remove the grime

Chorus:
Human Resources we’re supplying
Bodies for the queue
Human Resources we’re consuming
Someone just like you
