Scan This - Paul The Ranter - Original Song and Video

Howdy folks and welcome to Woody's Corner! This video will be part of a series of videos using original songs created in ChatGPT Or Claude A.I., Suno Music, and OpenArt. This is a character of my Brother In Law. He is officially "Paul The Ranter", because he loves to rant! After working a fun story line about the lack of printed menus rant, I came up with the ultimate song with Claude A.I.. I used Suno to create the original song. Then fed the whole thing through Open Art to create the music video. I was happy with it all as it really captured the essence and inspirations that were at work underneath it all. This particular rant hits home to all of us, because so many places make you scan a QR code to see the menu. Even some cruise ships are doing this in their dining rooms. We've all experienced it, and who doesn't miss the tasty pictures of the food on a printed menu? Printed menu's are much quicker and easier to navigate, but what do I know, I'm an old guy now! Here were the settings in OpenArt. I am having great success with this combination for this style of video.

Lyrics: [Intro] (Sound of phones clicking, someone muttering, a chair scraping) [Verse 1] [G] Paul walks in on Saturday, ready for some food [C] Table's set, water's poured, feeling pretty good [G] [D] Waiter comes, no menus, just a sticker on the table [C] [D] Scan that little code there, if your phone is still capable [G] Paul's at eleven percent, battery in the red [C] He came here for the chicken parm, not to fill with dread [G] [D] Wife's phone won't connect, the WiFi's a joke [C] [D] Welcome2OurRestaurant-2019 — who wrote this code [Pre-Chorus] [Em] [C] Six grown adults, grown taxpaying grown adults here [G] [D] All aiming at a sticker like a target might appear [Em] [C] Someone got a 404, someone's camera won't lock [G] [D] Eleven minutes sitting here and nobody's ordered a Coke [Chorus] [G] [C] Scan this, scan that, scan the little square [D] [C] I came here to eat, not to troubleshoot right here [G] [C] I don't want a website on a phone I'm holding sideways [D] [C] [G] I just want a laminated menu like the old days [G] [C] Scan this, scan that, now the page won't load [D] [C] Running like a Dell laptop from the year of oh-four [G] [C] They replaced the menu and they handed me the job [D] [C] [G] Paul The Ranter came to eat — not to troubleshoot and sob [Verse 2] [G] Uncle Jerry's at the table, eighty-one years strong [C] Doesn't own a smartphone, doesn't think that's wrong [G] [D] They hand him a QR code, he holds it to the light [C] [D] Thinks it's a crossword puzzle, well he might be right [G] Grandma didn't survive eighty-seven years of living [C] To squint at a PDF on someone else's phone, unforgiving [G] [D] Held sideways at full brightness with the screen cracked some [C] [D] Jerry just wants to see a picture of the chicken drumstick, hon [Pre-Chorus] [Em] [C] And Paul's on a date night, trying to set the mood [G] [D] Used to share a menu, now they're both just staring, rude [Em] [C] No pointing at the specials, no accidental hand graze [G] [D] Just two phones and silence like a waiting room malaise [Chorus] [G] [C] Scan this, scan that, scan the little square [D] [C] I came here to eat, not to troubleshoot right here [G] [C] Half the fun of date night was the menu we both shared [D] [C] [G] Now we're in a waiting room and nobody even cared [G] [C] Scan this, scan that, website from two-thousand-and-one [D] [C] Seasonal with no explanation means nothing, hon [G] [C] The font is Papyrus and the photos are all stretched [D] [C] [G] Paul clicked the back button and lost everything he checked [Bridge] [Em] [C] And then the waiter smiles and says — we went green [G] [D] Went digital for the planet, you know what that means [Em] [C] Then he drops five paper napkins, a receipt, a card to sign Lyrics too long to include...
