I have an issue with - among many other songwriters - The Bangles. The crime here is sacrificing common sense for the sake of a rhyming lyric. See if you can spot the error:
"Just another manic Monday, wish it was Sunday, cos that's my funday."
Surely she'd better off wishing it was Friday night, then she'd have the whole of Saturday and Sunday to look forward to before her dreaded Monday? Of course not, because 'Friday night' doesn't rhyme with 'Monday' and 'funday'.
About Me
- Norbert Panhandle
- Like many people, I have thoughts, questions, opinions and ramblings filling up my head. I have had an urge to share my pointless (and sometimes not so pointless) mutterings with the folks on the Interweb for quite sometime now. I have finally got round to doing it. Feel free to enjoy, question, take offence or ignore me completely. Any of the above will leave me truly satisfied.
