This
page is a serious work-in-progress. Eventually, I hope to have lyrics to
all the songs that are listed
at
BMI.com, which is the place for copyright licensing of most popular songs.
All 789 of them, according
to
BMI. Certainly a daunting task.
In
the meantime, feel free to acquaint yourself with Silverstein's mastery
of the pop, folk, and country
lyric
at Carol's Banned Width, where she has a special section devoted to Silverstein's
lyrics and
poetry.
Or
if you'd like to listen to some of the tracks he actually recorded, go
to Morgo's Media Menu.
And as
for
song titles, someone else took the time to compile a list of them, which
you can view here.
You
can also read a review
I wrote of "Fuck 'Em", a bootleg of sorts which cobbled together a bunch
of
ridiculously
funny and obscene songs Shel wrote, most of which were almost certainly
not intended to
see
the light of day.
