I wrote out a bunch of lyrics and refined them as I worked. They seemed to fall into separate categories of food, video games, and movies, so I separated those into verses and then worked on the rhymes. After getting a rough draft, I ran it through Gemma 4 to work out the verses. It identified some hard to say words and then offered some terrible replacement suggestions (‘swedish fish with legs’ to rhyme with scrambled eggs… What?!). I worked out the final verses and then re-submitted it to get a start for the chorus and what tags, bpm, key, and duration I should start with. After iterating through multiple renders and tweaks to the settings, I got a version that I like.
Prompt:#
112bpm, Bb Major

Lyrics
[Verse]
Girl, are you sitting on a graham cracker? I want s’more,
Forget the five-second rule, I’ll meet you on the floor.
You’re the Lucky in my Charms, you’re the Flamin’ Hot in Cheetos,
Licking dust from my fingers, I’m saying, “Oh nos!”
Pull up to your drive-thru, let me order up the combo, Surprise in your heart like a Cracker Jack box pronto. Like Monopoly at McDonald’s, I know it’s rigged, I’m getting signals, and none of them are mixed. Little bit of this and a little bit of that, call it charcuterie, Brownies on the table, popcorn in the air, pure beauty.
I don’t need a smorgasbord under shady maples, I’ll take you with a spoon as big as a ladle. Simple scrambled eggs, or work for potstickers, A feast of stolen kisses while the kitchen gets steamier. Dairy Queen for dessert, treat you like royalty, You’re the sweetest thing on the menu, and you’re spoiling me.
[Chorus] You’re my sweet tooth, my cheat code, My favorite place to go-go-go. You’re my jackpot, my dynamite, My extra life on a Friday night.
Oh-oh-oh, I want it all with you, A little bit crazy, a little taboo. From the first bite to the final scene, You’re my pop-culture fever dream!
Oh-oh-oh, you know it’s true, Every good thing leads me back to you!
[Verse 2] You’re the loot in the chest, the legendary drop, One look at you, baby, and my heart won’t stop. Let’s go co-op, baby, no split-screen tonight, Two-player mode and everything’s right.
Take me to the arcade where the neon lights glow, PlayStation at home or the Switch on the go. We’ll farm up a fortune in Stardew Valley, Plant a little love with a pixel rally!
Let’s level up together, get that XP, You’re Player One, Player Two is me. From the 8-bit days to the high-def scene, You’re my favorite character on every screen.
[Chorus] You’re my sweet tooth, my cheat code, My favorite place to go-go-go. You’re my jackpot, my dynamite, My extra life on a Friday night.
Oh-oh-oh, I want it all with you, A little bit crazy, a little taboo. From the first bite to the final scene, You’re my pop-culture fever dream!
Oh-oh-oh, you know it’s true, Every good thing leads me back to you!
[Verse 3] Our love’s a summer blockbuster when it’s hot outside, It’s all about family, and you’re my ride-or-die. I’ll be Cap, you’ll be Bucky, we’re a dynamite sight, I love you 3000, baby, you know that’s right. We’re in the Endgame now, and you’re worth the fight, You’re my X on the map, my buried treasure in sight.
I’m Indiana Jones, getting caught in your trap, You steal my heart quicker than a whip crack. James Bond in the morning, shaken, not stirred, One kiss from you, baby, and I’ve lost every word.
Streaming or dreaming, you’re my Netflix binge, Rom-com of our love, got me right on the fringe. From a Hallmark Christmas to a Mission Impossible, You’re the leading lady, and this love’s unstoppable.
[Bridge] I’ll bring the pop, you bring the controller, Be my player two, my heart-stealing charmer. We’ll binge-watch movies till the sun comes up, Share one last snack from the bottom of the cup.
No cheat codes needed, no script to rehearse, You’re the best plot twist in the whole universe. From the drive-thru line to the stars above, It’s a pop-culture world, but it’s you I love!
[Final Chorus — Bigger and Brighter] You’re my sweet tooth, my cheat code, My favorite place to go-go-go. You’re my jackpot, my dynamite, My extra life on a Friday night.
Oh-oh-oh, I want it all with you, A little bit crazy, a little taboo. From the first bite to the final scene, You’re my pop-culture fever dream!
Oh-oh-oh, you know it’s true, Every good thing leads me back to you!
[Outro] You’re my pop-culture fever dream!
