Inadequate Lyrical Comprehension

If you know me-you know that I have a way with song lyrics. I sing what fits. What I sing is by no means logical.

I thought Lady Gaga's Poker Face said "carry my, carry my poker face". To carry a face is a slightly disturbing image. But then again, so is Lady Gaga's meat dress.

According to Selena Gomez "you are the thunder and I am the lightning". But according to me "you are the thunder and I am the lion". They both make a resonating growl of some sort so it makes sense that they would go together in a song...right? Wrong.

Aladdin claims to Jasmine in A Whole New World that "every moment red letter". I always thought it was awkward when he confessed a personal issue by saying "every moment bed wetter". Call me crazy, but that's not something you want to tell a girl on your first date.

Kris Allen sings "staring down the barrel of a gun" in his hit single Live Like We're Dying. I sing "staring down the bedroom of a gun".....what?!

With all this being said, I have decided to look up song lyrics before I commit to humming or singing the song in public. This will avoid further embarrassment. However, this always proves to give a laugh or two and I love making people laugh! After all, I'm beginning to recycle my jokes far too much...people are starting to notice.

So be prepared to hear a debauchery of musical lyrics when coming out of my mouth.

  1. Wow. This is so you!

    For the record, I've done some interesting ones myself. Ex: In my youth, I was quite sure that in the song "Our God is an Awesome God he reigns" was "Our God, is and Awesome Body-Range, from Heaven Above." It somehow made sense back then.....
