bad lyrics, part two.

oh poor music lyrics, you are so good to me.
ps sorry for not posting this week. 1) i'm going to bed at 830 every night recovering from my trip and 2) i can't get my mind off my trip and i want to go back to haiti, so sass takes a backseat. sorry about it.

love the way you lie - eminem
this song is the tory burch knockoff of "airplanes." throw in a verse of rap, then slow singing. really. except that eminem is sorry compared to b.o.b. what does b.o.b. even stand for? box of bums. bunks on beds. bops on brains. something like that. but, anyways.

"now you get to watch her leave out the window, guess that's why they call it window pane."

this pun/play on words is just about as good as my high school economics teacher's. the man that hits you with his belly when he walks by and says "excuse you." talk about a fun sucker. pane/pain. it hurts my soul. come on, skittle boy. m&m. see? my jokes are better. i'll just stand there and watch you burn. but it's alright because you like the way it hurts.

sk8r boi - avril lavigne
that hurt my fingers just to type. an 8 should never be in a word.

"he was a boy, she was a girl, can i make it any more obvious?"

no. human anatomy is as obvious as it gets. but thanks for offering to help. sorry a-boot it.

all the things i've done - the killers

"i've got soul but i'm not a soldier."

not only is this lyric dumb, but it gets dumber all 500 times he says it. repetition for effect? repetition for nausea. it's kind of like saying i've got bills but i'm not a billfold. i've got cheese, but i'm not a cheesegrater. you tell me how much sense that makes.

ironic - alanis morrisette

"it's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife, isn't is ironic, don't you think? it's like rain on your wedding day, it's a free ride when you've already paid."

clearly alanis didn't take english class. she didn't learn the true definition of irony.

i·ro·ny

that's not irony, alanis. that's just a "your life sucks" moment. if it rains on my wedding day, i wouldn't say "look at this irony!" i would say "look at this rain. this sucks." oh man, i have ten thousand spoons. but all i need is a knife. so ironic. hah.


my first kiss - 3oh!3 and ke$ha
first off, too many symbols within the name. again, fingers are burning. oh, the things i do for my 4 readers.

"my first kiss went a little like this, smoooooch and twist."

take notes, because this is the two step formula. maybe now that i know this, i'll magically get a boyfriend. (if you took that seriously, i will punch you in the mouth, because you do not know me at all. ha. me in a relationship makes me laugh out loud a little bit.)


take me back to haiti.
