Stupid song lyrics
But I do have a problem with stupid crappy lyrics that basically ride an awful melody to nothingness. Let’s take today’s number 2 hit ‘Fireflies’ from Owl City.
If you read through some of the lyrics you will start to see what I mean.
(my comments are in bold)
You would not believe your eyes - If 10 million fireflies - Lit up the world as I fell asleep
Brilliant
Cause they'd fill the open air and leave teardrops everywhere.you'd think me rude
but I would just stand and stare.
Are you at a nudist beach?
I like to make myself believe that planet earth turns slowly.
It does Einstein - 1 revolution every 24 hours
it's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep cause everything is never as it seems.
That’s some nice ryming
Cause I'd get a thousand hugs from ten-thousand lightening bugs as they tried to teach me how to dance.
I want what he's having.
But I'll know where several are if my dreams get real bizarre. Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar.
That line is worse than the lyric from Des’ree ‘It’s a sight that I fear most. I’d rather have a piece of toast’
Please no more Fireflies on the radio - please!

I work in part-time a grocery store and hear this song probably once a day, and the mix tends to play at least one song twice during a shift, so I'll hear this song anywhere from 3-6 times during the week.
I want to die.

DEATH to autotune.
Except if it involves Carl Sagan, or Winston Churchill.
