My throat is so sore right now, I can't sing anymore, so here it is, "As is." "What Comes Naturally" is what I'm calling my comic, when hell freezes over, and I actually start drawing it. It stars my character, Rindimo Cheetah, and basically tells his story, and how he screws everything up.

I'm really happy with the music part... not so happy with the singing. I was trying to have a duality play throughout the song, with the slow chorus, and the switching stereo channels.

Here's the lyrics:

<Spoken>
Am I bad, or am I good?
Should I do what I want, or what I should?
It's so hard to be right, so easy to be wrong.
Life is so short, yet it seems so long.
</spoken>

You should be at home, but you're on the prowl.
Got an itch you want to scratch, but you don't know how.
Sooner or later, you're going to get caught.
If you don't follow the rules, then your freedom is naught.

But no one can control you, if you're not wearing a leash.
There is no way to fail, when there's no one to teach.
The sky is the limit, but how can you soar?
When you've never been this way, never done this before?

<Chorus>
Do what comes naturally-- Instinct couldn't be wrong.
When you're hungy you eat, when you're tired you sleep.
Sometimes you want to sing, so sing out a song!
Do what comes naturally! Survival depends on your will.
Breathe in and out-- Dance all about
Get her attention, and go for the thrill!
</chorus>

You have great potential, or so they say.
But no matter what you do they think you threw it away
You keep on trying what you know is right
But you keep finding yourself going wrong every night.

No one can tell you how to live, they try it anyway.
you can't predict the future, so just live for today.
She's giving you the look, but will she give you a taste?
Is she on your side, once all the bets have been placed?

<Chorus>
Do what comes naturally-- Experience will show you the way.
Consequences happen, for every single action,
No matter where you go, wherever you stay!
Do what comes naturally-- There's only one way to find out!
The only way through it-- is to go ahead and do it.
Give in to chance, and shake off the doubt.
</chorus>

You won't be pushed around, you're taking up arms.
Your cause is causing them, causes for alarms.
You're not going anywhere, you're going out with a fight.
You're fighting for something, because something's not right!

No one knows the answers to the problems we all share.
But we all have those claws, teeth, and crosses to bare.
When your back's against the wall, how will you react?
Will you go for guts and glory, or just use a little tact?

<Chorus>
Do what come naturally-- Do what you do best!
Only you can walk the mile, in your own special style
To reach your goal, and end your quest.
Do what comes naturally-- It's the hardest easy answer to choose!
But once you have chosen the direction it goes in,
You'll find it takes no effort, in paying your dues.

DO WHAT COMES NATURALLY!

WHAT COMES NATURALLY!!!!


Here's hoping people can sit through and listen to it. I'm really starting to worry about how I can't hear too well in one ear... It was really hard to keep in tune, and I had to do so many retakes. I still don't know how well the levels are... I hope it's all okay for you all out there. ;)
