Alliterations & Intertextuality
When a beautiful blonde who knows better than both
Little lawyers with their rules and every mad musician too
Better up your best game for the fortune and fame
Favors fun fiddly alliterations in names
See me running around in circles seeking somewhere for a plan
Standing upside down not on my head, but on my hands
I can't do anything right I just can't seem to comply
I get confused by fancy words my little head, it starts to hurt
The early bird will catch the worm
And all those wise old things they say
Just like patience is a virtue and Rome wasn't build in a day
Like 7-Up, there must've been 1-Up, 2-Up, 3-Up and so
Just keep on trying, head on out and go on trotting down the road
So did I get it, did I pass or am I singing for deaf ears
Will this be just another song that none will ever really hear
Well, I have to end now for you see I'm heading out to see my friend
We're going out to get some brunch but I'll be back someday again
Little lawyers with their rules and every mad musician too
Better up your best game for the fortune and fame
Favors fun fiddly alliterations in names
See me running around in circles seeking somewhere for a plan
Standing upside down not on my head, but on my hands
I can't do anything right I just can't seem to comply
I get confused by fancy words my little head, it starts to hurt
The early bird will catch the worm
And all those wise old things they say
Just like patience is a virtue and Rome wasn't build in a day
Like 7-Up, there must've been 1-Up, 2-Up, 3-Up and so
Just keep on trying, head on out and go on trotting down the road
So did I get it, did I pass or am I singing for deaf ears
Will this be just another song that none will ever really hear
Well, I have to end now for you see I'm heading out to see my friend
We're going out to get some brunch but I'll be back someday again
