Write down six words.. for example...

1. Down
2. Up
3. Forward
4. Backword
5. Left
6. Right

Now, You can have 6 parts.. it can go chorus/verse/chorus/verse etc.. or it can go any other way, But each phrase has to have one of the words... and all words need to be used at least once.
For example:

Everything is going a different way
Today is an UP for me
Go the same if you may
But away they go in glee

Everything is going a different way
When I looked DOWN at the flowers
They didn't say hello today
They've been sitting there for hours

Everything is going a different way
Looking FORWARDS when I walk
My thoughts going astray
Rubbing the board clear of chalk

Everything is going a different way
Thinking BACKWARDS while I walk
Something my voice might betray
Lucky I don't do it while I talk

Everything is going a different way
I looked LEFT as you looked at me
Piercing were your eyes grey
Something interesting on my knee

Everything is going a different way
You looked RIGHT at me
The same time I looked away
What my thoughts could be if you could only stay


its a fun excersise and one i make my students do regularly if they want to write songs
you should try it smile

Put the pen down and live life for a little bit then write when you are once again, inspired. During this time if i have nothing to do and wanna play music i practice the repetitive stuff.

Don't bother too much with rhymes until the chorus. Just write down your feelings in reasonable lengths. Then work on the chorus last, because the chorus is like the conclusion of an essay.
