Hi there! I’m Amy, a singer and songwriter. I’m looking for a creative writer to help me rewrite the choruses of popular songs for TikTok. I’ll provide prompts like “What if ‘Party in the USA’ was about kids’ parties in the UK?” or “What if ‘All I want for Christmas’ by Mariah Carey was written about bad British weather?” You’d only need to rewrite a small part, usually just the chorus, so it fits the original tune.
After you’ve made the lyrics match the prompt, I’ll use them to film myself singing and post it on TikTok. I’ve done some of these before, but I’m too busy to write them myself. I’ll share links to some examples so you can see what I’m looking for.
Here’s a quick example of my own rewrite:

Original song lyrics:
“So I put my hands up
They’re playin’ my song, the butterflies fly away
I’m noddin’ my head like, yeah
Movin’ my hips like yeah
I got my hands up, they’re playin’ my song
They know I’m gonna be okay
Yeah, it’s a party in the U.S.A.
Yeah, it’s a party in the U.S.A.
My rewritten lyrics using the prompt of ‘children parties in the UK’:
“So we put our hands up
the YMCA will be ringing in our ears all day
eating too much cake,
got a party bag to take away
put our hands up, they’re playing our songs
I’m loving my roller skates
hey, let’s talk about it on Monday
hey, it’s a party in the UK.”
Another example:
‘What if ‘All I want for Christmas was written about bad British weather?’

As you can see, you can use some of the same lyrics from the original song or just modify them slightly to fit the context.
I need someone with creative writing experience and a good grasp of English and British culture to make these rewrites relatable to my Western audience, particularly girls aged 13-30. The goal is to create quick, engaging content for social media to grow my music career. If you’re interested, please let me know, and I can share more examples of my writing style so you can understand it more. This would be an ongoing job, as I aim to post one of these videos every day or two.
Thank you for your time.
Amy
