Build and balance song structure with Pat Pattison's methods — section identification (verse/chorus/bridge/refrain), forms (AABA, verse/chorus, verse/refrain), the candy-bar rewrite, hook placement and hot spots, repetition/repainting (You-I-We, Past-Present-Future, hidden questions/commands), verse development and the box model, bridge writing, and Essential Guide to Lyric Form and Structure worked examples. Use when: 'is this verse/chorus or AABA', 'where should the title go', 'my chorus does not land', 'my second verse repeats the first', 'what goes in verse 2/3', 'write me a bridge', 'do I need a bridge'. For stability/scansion use /songwriting:meter-prosody.
