Friday! (oh... it's wednesday... oh well :)

So, I know I don't usually do this, but I thought I'd talk about the new 'hit' song 'Friday' by Rebecca Black. I'm gonna post the lyrics, and talk about them :) I don't hate the song, or Rebecca Black, i'm kinda neutral. I think the song is repetitive and it's stupid in some respects.

Orignal Lyrics
Seven a.m., waking up in the morning
Gotta be fresh, gotta go downstairs
Gotta have my bowl, gotta have cereal
Seein' everything, the time is goin'
Tickin' on and on, everybody's rushin'
Gotta get down to the bus stop
Gotta catch my bus, I see my friends (My friends)

Kickin' in the front seat
Sittin' in the back seat
Gotta make my mind up
Which seat can I take?
(Ok, comment time. This first part is mostly okay. She at least picks a subject that she knows about. And doesn't start off singing about love. Like a certain other teen singer *Cough*. But the obvious question is, if she's headed to catch her bus, why did she go with her friends? I'm pretty sure her parents are thinking she's on the bus...... maybe)

It's Friday, Friday
Gotta get down on Friday
Everybody's lookin' forward to the weekend, weekend
Friday, Friday
Gettin' down on Friday
Everybody's lookin' forward to the weekend

Partyin', partyin' (Yeah)
Partyin', partyin' (Yeah)
Fun, fun, fun, fun
Lookin' forward to the weekend
(Okay.... really repetitive!! What about:
It's Friday, time to get down,
because everyone is looking forward to the weekend.
Partyin', partyin' Yeah!
Fun fun fun fun!
Lookin' forward the weekend.

Or something like that :)

7:45, we're drivin' on the highway
Cruisin' so fast, I want time to fly
Fun, fun, think about fun
You know what it is
I got this, you got this
My friend is by my right, ay
I got this, you got this
Now you know it
(Okay.. time? am or pm? And why are they crusin'? Cause they don't look old enough to be driving, let alone the highway! Glad to know your friend is on the right, who's that on the left? Maybe say: My friends are by my side)
Kickin' in the front seat
Sittin' in the back seat
Gotta make my mind up
Which seat can I take?

It's Friday, Friday
Gotta get down on Friday
Everybody's lookin' forward to the weekend, weekend
Friday, Friday
Gettin' down on Friday
Everybody's lookin' forward to the weekend

Partyin', partyin' (Yeah)
Partyin', partyin' (Yeah)
Fun, fun, fun, fun
Lookin' forward to the weekend
(Becca, just take this out... repetitive and we know already and you say it later anyway.)
Yesterday was Thursday, Thursday
Today i-is Friday, Friday (Partyin')
We-we-we so excited
We so excited
We gonna have a ball today

Tomorrow is Saturday
And Sunday comes after ... wards
I don't want this weekend to end
(You wanna get mocked by teens today? State the obvious... drives them nuts and makes them 'haters'.. They feel like you don't think they know it. And it makes you seem stupid to them)

So chillin' in the front seat (In the front seat)
In the back seat (In the back seat)
I'm drivin', cruisin' (Yeah, yeah)
Fast lanes, switchin' lanes
Wit' a car up on my side (Woo!)
(C'mon) Passin' by is a school bus in front of me
Makes tick tock, tick tock, wanna scream
Check my time, it's Friday, it's a weekend
We gonna have fun, c'mon, c'mon, y'all
(No rap... unless a teen. Just kinda weird with the older guy...)
It's Friday, Friday
Gotta get down on Friday
Everybody's lookin' forward to the weekend, weekend
Friday, Friday
Gettin' down on Friday
Everybody's lookin' forward to the weekend

Partyin', partyin' (Yeah)
Partyin', partyin' (Yeah)
Fun, fun, fun, fun
Lookin' forward to the weekend

It's Friday, Friday
Gotta get down on Friday
Everybody's lookin' forward to the weekend, weekend
Friday, Friday
Gettin' down on Friday
Everybody's lookin' forward to the weekend

Partyin', partyin' (Yeah)
Partyin', partyin' (Yeah)
Fun, fun, fun, fun
Lookin' forward to the weekend
(Seriously? TWICE?? you know why people hate your song becca? You use FRIDAY way to much!! We know what day it is :D and we're glad it's friday :) don't make them sick of it!)

Okay, like I said. Just some observations. I know this is kinda a silly post. I don't hate her, or like her. I think if she wrote some songs that aren't as repetitive. I'm glad that she didn't start off with another dippy love song like everyone else does. But clean up your lyrics, make them flow better, make sense. And not give people headaches cause it's uper repetitive!
