 Song is usually a short piece of music with words which are sung. Song is also media to express
feelings. There are message behind a song. It even teaches the listeners moral values that are hidden
in the lyrics.
 The social function of song is to entertain the listeners.
 These are a common structure of a song:

Song title Song titles are essential to remind people of the songs. That’s why listeners often hear
the title repeated in the lyrics. Besides matching the title with the lyrics, it also makes
the title more memorable.
Intro Introduction music in a song
Verse A verse is group of lines of words telling a story that the singer wants to convey and
it also directs the listeners to the message of the song. It usually sung before chorus.
Bridge A part connecting chorus and verse
Chorus Part of song which is sung after each verse. Chorus is lyrics of a song repeated
several times with a distinctive rhythm so that listeners easily remember this part.
Songs reveal the name of the song in their chorus and the song titles are repeated
here.
Interlude A short piece of music that fills a period of time in a song

Coda A line to close a song. Coda means ‘tail’ in Italian and, as a tail; this part is an
additional part to add a good ending to the song. However, not all songs have coda in
their lyrics.

Remember!
 Refrain and chorus have lines that are repeated.
 Refrains and choruses may contain the title.
 Refrains are shorter than choruses.
 Refrains are often composed of 2 lines, while the chorus can be made up several lines.
 Chorus is also melodically, rhythmically, and lyrically different from the verse and it
expresses the main message of the song.

"Never Enough"
(originally from "The Greatest Showman" soundtrack)

Intro

(verse)
I'm tryin' to hold my breath
Let it stay this way
Can't let this moment end
You set off a dream in me
Getting louder now
Can you hear it echoing?

(pre-chorus/ bridge)
Take my hand
Will you share this with me?
'Cause darling, without you

(chorus)
All the shine of a thousand spotlights
All the stars we steal from the night sky
Will never be enough, never be enough
Towers of gold are still too little
These hands could hold the world, but it'll
Never be enough, never be enough for me

(post chorus)
Never, never
Never, never
Never, for me, for me
Never enough, never enough, never enough
For me, for me, for me

(chorus)
All the shine of a thousand spotlights
All the stars we steal from the night sky
Will never be enough, never be enough
Towers of gold are still too little
These hands could hold the world, but it'll
Never be enough, never be enough for me

(post chorus)
Never, never
Never, never
Never, for me, for me
Never enough, never, never
Never enough, never, never
Never enough
For me, for me, for me

(outro)
For me
