Song writers are an extremely talented group of people, but there were a few times when the choices of the words they strung together to add into their song made me question how they were able to publish it.
1. “Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Saturday to Sunday.” - I Got A Feeling, Black Eyed Peas
Actually, even better;
2. "It's Friday, Friday; gotta get down on Friday. Everybody's lookin' forward to the weekend, weekend; Friday, Friday." - Friday, Rebecca Black
Waiting for her to release a days of the week song.
3. "Kickin' in the front seat. Sittin' in the back seat. Gotta make my mind up, which seat can I take?" - Friday, Rebecca Black
She's a lyrical genius. No discussion needed.
Okay, sorry Rebecca Black, I'm done. You just made it too easy.
4. "Cake" x 1,000,000,000 - Birthday Cake, Rhianna
Maybe Rhianna never was allowed to have cake when she was younger, so she's letting loose and taking it out with moist sugary goodness via song lyrics.
5. "The square root of 69 is eight something, right? Cause I’ve been tryna work it out." - What's my Name, Drake
Drizzy, Drizzy, Drizzy; maybe a math tutor on the tour would be a good life choice.
6. "Mr. WorldWide." - Pitbull in any song he ever made
7. "Nants ingonyama bagithi Baba Sithi uhm ingonyama." - The Circle of Life, The Lion King
Who am I kidding, that line is brilliant; no one even knows how to pronounce it. Absolute genius, Disney is.
8. "That’s not my name/That’s not my name/That’s not my name/That’s not my name/That’s not my name/That’s not my name/That’s not my name/That’s not my name/That’s not my name/That’s not my name/That’s not my name/That’s not my name/That’s not my name/That’s not my name/That’s not my name/That’s not my name/That’s not my name/That’s not my name/That’s not my name/That’s not my name!" That's not my name, The Ting Tings
Then... what is your name?
9. "I mix your milk with my Cocoa Puff/Milky, milky cocoa/Mix your milk with my Cocoa Puff." - My Humps, The Black Eyed Peas
Great breakfast cereal, terrible choice of song lyrics.
10. "I really, really, really, really, really, really like you." - I Really Like You, Carly Rae Jepsen
"Do you like me?"
11. "No, I really, really, really, really like him." - Carly Rae Jepsen, as a preteen, about her boyfriend
12. "Do you ever feel like a plastic bag?" - Katy Perry, Firework
This would really work if we could put headphones on some plastic shopping bags and see how meaningful this song is to them.
13. “And everyone in line in the bathroom. Trying to get a line in the bathroom." -We Can’t Stop, Miley Cyrus
Relatable. very, very, relatable. I wonder if she just really had to go to the bathroom while in the recording studio and they wouldn't let her out until she sang another verse.
14. "What rhymes with hug me?" - Blurred Lines, Robin Thicke
15. "I'm trying to give Halle Berry a baby, and no one can stop me" - Drake, Versace
I bet Drake was great at secret santa.
