How do I make good song lyrics?

I'm writing the lyrics of a song my classmates are working with. I just can't seem to make them nice! Does anyone have techniques for making good lyrics?





The song's about animals, mind you.

How do I make good song lyrics?
First you need to decide what the song is going to be about. Is it about saving the animals? Or, a song from an animals perspective? Or a song about how predators hunt? etc.


A good way to find words to use is to write a word, that has to do with the subject, on a piece of paper. Then write down all the things that relate to that word.





Example: Animals


1. Furry


2. Fast


3. Sharp teeth etc.





Then you can take a word from the list and continue the same way.





Example: Furry


1. Soft


2. Smooth


3. Colorful etc.





You can do this over and over. It will help you come up with many ideas......good luck!
