The words to the chorus can be as complicated and lengthy or as short and repetitive as you want. A short, simple chorus is easier for the audience members to remember (for example, The Beatles' "Can't Buy Me Love"). It is more likely that they will want to sing along with the song if they can easily remember the chorus, even after only one or two hearings. Alternately, you can repeat parts of the chorus to help make the song catchier (for an example, see the lyrics to Ricky Martin's "Livin' La Vida Loca"). For an example of a longer and more complicated chorus that still stands well on its own, see the lyrics to the Santana song "Smooth."
