How to write a Sticky Sweet Sad Song against the System
Choose your content:
-Pick a pastel colour (mint, baby blue, soft pink…)
-Pick a cute animal (kittens, bunnies, koalas…)
-Pick an emotion (jealousy, anger, nostalgia)
-Pick a political cause or a system you want to burn to the ground (heteropatriarchal white supremacy, ableism, specism, global warming…)
For example:
A lavender bunny is stressed by capitalism
Turn that into a 4 lines chorus:
The more it rhymes the better. Cheat with this website.
For example:
My little bunny is lavender
But it is slowly losing its fur
My anxiously shaking lavender bunny
Worries about renting, investments and money
Now write your verses
Give the back story, add some details, make it more tragic, use cuteness to touch your audience´s hearts and urge them to fight the system. Feel free to namedrop political leaders and relate to the current news.

For example:
My rabbit works from 8 to 5
it feels burnt out with no sex drive
My bunny struggles to make ends meet
Its fluff fades away from violet
Find a melody
Have fun. Be cute. Fuck the system.
