    plan out how you wish to arrange the lettering on a scrap piece of paper. make sure to use block or bubble letters.

    then begin to write the lyrics on the fabric with a sharpie or fabric pen. make sure to go around the lettering leaving it blank inside the lines.

    when done, you may want to go back and erase any pencil lines that are noticeable.
