Am I the only one this happens to? I used to "feel it coming in the yellow night" with Phil Collins. What are yours?

"I'm blue, if I were green I would die / I'm in need of a guy / I'ma beat up a guy . . . ."

Also, I fondly recall a YT commenter on Major Lazer's Lean On that thought "Blow kiss, fire a gun" was "Marcus Firagon."

I remember when that song came out and everyone was pretty much interpreting the lyrics in their own way.

Then that one song came out with really lame lyrics sung to that tune. "I'm good yeah I'm feeling alright, I'm gonna have the best fuckin' night or my life, I'm good yeah I'm feeling alright."

Like what? Those the lamest lyrics ever.
