Song Lyrics

I really LOVE music. Really everything about it. But my very favorite part of all music is the lyrics. Some of them just speak to you, move you, and make you feel alive. While thinking about this during my insomniac hours last night I have come up with a few of my very favorite “song quotes” and have decided to share them with you along with why I love them so much;

“Baby you the whole package plus you pay your taxesAnd you keep it real while them other stay plastic” –B.O.B.
See now until I heard this song on the radio I honestly didn’t know that guys were looking for a girl who follows the rules of modern civilization, such as paying their taxes. I didn’t advertise myself as a girl who does in fact pay her taxes. This ignorance on my part could very well be why I am still single.

"Eenie meenie miney mo. Catch a bad chick by her toe. If she holla, let her go" - Justin Bieber
Several things. First I think all of us single girls can agree that the way we want to be “caught” is definitely by the toe. And Justin Bieber is the FIRST person who has ever recognized this in a song. And not just any song but a song that brings nursery rhymes into the lyrics. Is this talent? I think so.

“I don’t want to see a ghost; it’s the sign that I fear the most. I’d rather have a piece of toast.” -Des’ree
The truth is we would all rather have toast than see a ghost. I mean am I the only one whose soul these lyrics speak to?? Mmmmm, toast.

“And I met a girl, she asked me my name, I told her what it was.” -3 Razorlight

Sometimes a song leaves you hanging, your wondering what happened next and it NEVER tells you. That is so frustrating, which is why I love these lyrics so much, it tells you exactly what happened. Now you know. You don’t have to wonder.


“Here’s a llama, there's a llama, and another little llama, fuzzy llama, funny llama, llama llama duck.”

Truly I have no words.

    and id like to check you for ticks ~Brad Paisley

  3. To both Diana and Grace, you made these up. No one would be stupid enough to actually sing them!

    How about Fergie's song "And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket" That'll melt your heart!
