Searching For A Hero

Made with AI

[Verse]
Lights go bright we gather near
Questions flow we have no fear
Fast pace buzzers in our hands
This is how we make our stand

[Verse 2]
Trivia night we all prepare
Facts and fun we always share
Mind and heart they race so fast
For the win we’ll make it last

[Chorus]
Final round we’re almost there
Triple points we’re in the air
Brain and smile we wear the crown
Ready set it’s going down

[Verse 3]
Teams collide we play the game
Victory's the ultimate aim
Tick tock time we answer quick
Trivia brings its magic trick

[Bridge]
Cheers and groans fill up the room
In the spotlight's golden bloom
Every fact every clue
One more step we’ll see it through

[Chorus]
Final round we’re almost there
Triple points we’re in the air
Brain and smile we wear the crown
Ready set it’s going down

The Final Round

Host of the popular and influential podcast The Perfume Nationalist sits down with me to discuss cigarettes, the Grammys, cults, film ratings, gun activism, cancel culture, benevolent sexism, and more.

Daniel’s Pick
Mr Creep is a guitarist born in 1981 in Italy
This track was released two weeks ago and is a great halloween / classical track. Including a very cool vocal with some Power Glove vibes. My pick of the week is Jack Wolf by Mister Creep.
