Welcome!
The
Lyric Magician is the place
to request clever, memorable and fun
NEW lyrics based on well-known
copyright-free (public
domain) songs that pay tribute to
someone or something important. I am your lyric magician, Marty,
and I look forward to conjuring up great lyrics for you. I have
over 20 years experience as a lyricist, songwriter and recording
artist.
On the “Lyric & Song Samples” page, you’ll hear how classical,
folk, early 1900, and ethnic songs come alive with creative new lyrics.

Who Deserves a
Tribute Song?
Everyone does…for events like an
anniversary (wedding, work), birthday,
bon voyage, congratulations (new job, new home) get well soon,
graduation (high school, college), marriage proposal, new baby
announcement, religious occasions (baptisms, Bar/Bat Mitzvahs,
Quinceañeras, confirmations), retirement, Valentine's Day, wedding, or
welcome home. Also: business-related
tributes...like new
products, sales presentations, or inspirational messages.
Investment
Only $200 for each song (up to 3 minutes
long) with music and new
lyrics I compose then email to you. This includes two MP3s (an
instrumental of the "source" song and a version where the lyrics are
sung to the
instrumental...to act as guide for whomever sings the song at your
event).
