I'm sure this has happened to everyone at some point or another: you listen to the radio and a song comes on that you really don't like, but somehow, the words get stuck in your head.
Well, this happens to me quite often. And I am a lyrics freak - when I like a song, I have to know the lyrics and I have to know them all. Somehow I just absorb the lyrics. Well, unfortunately, my filter isn't always that great, so I end up knowing lyrics to songs I hate.
Two or three days ago, I would have told you that "Buy U a Drank" by T-Pain was another dumb annoying song. I still kind of think it is...buuuuuuut there is this one part that I like:
Crunk juice bombs
Oakly Shades
Shawty Got Class
Oh Behave
Let's Get Gone
Walk It Out (Now Walk It Out)
Just Like That
That's What I'm Talking 'Bout
Yeah, really that's the only part I like, but it has lead to me knowing the entire song verbatim. The local "hit" radio station, KIIS FM plays this song ALL THE TIME. Every time I'm in the car, I hear this song. So, on my ride home yesterday I found myself deliberately putting the station on, and what do you know, one song finished and then this one came on! And for the first time, I sang along to the whole dang song. I feel slightly ashamed.
Since I can't post the song, here is the video (a typical rap/hip-hop/r&b video, but I've seen worse), with the lyrics I like starting at 1:17 (or 2:35 since here in my blog the clock is in reverse:
To balance that out though, I give you Chris, reciting the lyrics to "Buy U a Drank":
