Hair, from Gaga. I really love the music but nowadays the lyrics are kinda cringy for me, I'm sorry :( 

i will not stand for Hair slander, that song literally saved so many lives.

it's full of heart & earnest as hell, but it is not cringe at all.

Honestly the line "i want lots of friends that invite me to their parties" was one of the only lyrics that made me cry as a teenager lmao. It's cringe but she knew her target audience:selena:

this line still hits even as a fully grown adult but having just moved to a new city and hardly any friends lol

If anything, the lyrics to Hair have a wonderful camp sincerity that I actually appreciate *more* over time

Slut Pop! The whole thing. Some good music there but the lyrical content is absolute trash. 

That's literally the point tho

I guess I mean some of the phrasing. Like ”I can be mom, unless you want to be dad”, rather than “I can be mom, if you wanna be a dad” or something of the sort. Also, “I could be girl, unless you want to be man”. Idk the song is snatched anyway but it’s always made me curious

I was confused by this sentence when I was a teenager too.

Then I realized it wasn't about saying "let's be mom and dad like a cute couple :wub:". You know how everyone here is always referring to hot older guys as daddies? :huntyga: Well, that's in the same vein.

"Being mom" or "being dad" refers to a phrase used by certain classes of people when they take charge of a situation.

For instance, if there's a tray of drinks and a group of people, one would say "ill be mom" and that person takes charge and serves the drinks.

If there's a map to be read and someone volunteers to "be dad" then they're volunteering to take charge.

It's about taking a d1ck.

This is the best explanation I’ve heard.

”I can play mom and cook and clean, unless you wanna play dad and f*ck” :lolga:

isn't it super obvious it's about sub/dom roles? i can be mom (dominatrix) unless you want to be dad (dominant man who likes to be called daddy)

mother, what must i do?

Ava Max in general. Really love her music, but the lyrics are pretty basic/uninspired.

I saw her do a video with Genius explaining the lyrics of Maybe You’re The Problem and it was ****ing hilarious 

It’s like

“I Like Apples So Much”

I wrote this lyric because I really like apples, so much

Guess it’s not super obvious if someone asked eh?
