This is a story set to music in which Todd, a impetuous young man, embarks on a journey into new and dangerous territory, only to face, I mean, encounter, unexpected challenges. Join Todd as he navigates the twists and turns of this coming-of-age (no pun intended) story in Todd Goes Downtown. Bear witness to the evolution of an increasingly confused man as he confronts inner, outer, and sorta in between (he’s literally and figuratively in the deep end) peaks and valleys and emerges transformed by his experience.
Listen to the first draft of the song here. The lyrics are crafted by poemgenerator.io. The vocalist is lost, confused, out of time, step, key and meter, just fumbling around in a foreign landscape, like Todd.
Our protagonist, Todd, sets out on a venture into new and wild territory, unaware of the challenges that lie ahead. Tall, blonde, and godlike, Todd embodies the spirit of adventure as he boldly steps into the unknown crossroads, I mean, intersection. No. Junction? Nope. How about destination? That works.
Take Two: Tall, blonde, and godlike, Todd embodies the spirit of adventure as he boldly steps into the destination that awaits.
Hey, that was some alliteration! Take Two Tall Todd. Quite the tongue-twister.
Nooo… just strike that.
Spoonerism!
Check.
As Todd explores the unfamiliar landscape, he suddenly has an epiphany that changes everything. His perception shifts, and he realizes he may not be the urbanite he thought he was but more a rural gent, more at home in a pole barn (no pun intended) than going down (stop it) a downtown city street.
With this newfound self-awareness, Todd’s journey takes a open-mouthed turn (shut up). The scenario he once believed he was meant to embrace now feels foreign, unusual, odd, bizarre, weird, queer (STFU!), unexpected, unfamiliar, abnormal, anomalous, out of the ordinary, puzzling, perplexing, baffling, incongruous, uncommon, irregular, deviant, aberrant, freakish, surreal, questionable, unnatural, outré, unco, fishy (I swear to God I will stop this car right here and you will regret it), creepy, spooky, bizarro, offbeat, quirky, way out, kinky, oddball, like nothing on earth, screwy, off the wall, wacko, backasswards, dilly, unfamiliar, unknown, alien… why, some might dare say, wrong, for him. He grapples with his identity in this evolving narrative. What starts as a tender love story transforms into a tale of abject horror as Todd confronts the stark reality of his situation and how it defines his true nature. The once-promising romantic adventure spirals into utter chaos, leaving Todd to face, I mean, confront, the consequences of his choices, and himself.
SCI, Inc. is not amused. Face, head and neck slapping as well as all sorts of protesting can be overheard amidst the din of the business section. Nope. No, no, no. Metropolitan locale, but all are in vain. Todd clocks out. I mean, he worked for SCI, Inc. and literally punched the time-clock and left.
Cheese and rice, Batman.

How much I long for a red pomegranateSweet and tart upon my tongueFor the songs that we once sungIn the valleys where I'm fromLa la la, take me home Verse 3Logari voices used to riseBeneath those endless summer skiesThe saffron bread, the cardamom teaAll the things that made me, meOh oh oh Verse 4Here the buildings reach so highBut they cannot touch the skyLike the peaks that guard my homeWhere the ancient prayers still roamLa la la, oh…
