How to Talkbox (Original Mix)

Ok!
This is the story of a song
That started out as a remix
But they wouldn't release it
Such a shame, such a shame

Then I said to myself
Shouldn't I just finish it anyway
And make it a song for myself?
So that is what I did

And in this track
Step by step
I will explain
How this works
'What?', you say
Well I'm talking about the Talkbox! Here goes

Cause when you talkbox, this is what you do
You play your notes on your keyboard
What you play comes out of the tube, not the other way round
Which is a common misconception

So to clarify No, you're not singing
You make the lyrics with your mouth
But you cannot use your vocal cords
Which is hard, which is hard

Some of the fun things you can do with a talkbox
You can hold a note for as long as you like
Because you need no breath
Or I can do this for a morе speech-like sound. Wow!

Cause when you talkbox, this is what you do
You play your notеs on your keyboard (on your keyboard)
What you play comes out of the tube,
Not the other way round (no no no no)
Which is a common misconception (oh dear)

So to clarify No, you're not singing
You make the lyrics with your mouth
But you cannot use your vocal cords (no no no)
And it's hard, so so so hard

What else is there to say?
If you wanna do harmonies I'd rather not play them all at once
I mean you can, but you're getting a lot of distortion
Let me demonstrate
Oooooooh Oooooooh Oooooooh
Actually that sounds lovely!
But for a cleaner sound you'll need overdubs. That's all!

Cause when you talkbox, this is what you do (what you do)
You play your notes on your keyboard (on the keyboard)
What you play comes out of the tube,
Not the other way round (no no no no)
Which is a common misconception (oh dear)

So to clarify No, you're not singing
You make the lyrics with your mouth
But the talkbox part is over now
I'm gonna play some synthesizers
Bye!
