Foxes Mate For Life

Born Ruffians

Make a point of having fun
It'll help you get through life
"Life sucks and love is dumb"
Golly, that's a real lie

And I know
foxes mate
for life because
they're in love

Learn as much as you can
Read a book, watch less TV
It's worth it in the end
Just take a look at me

And I know
foxes mate
for life because
they're in love

Someone should terminate him
Before he infects the others
Don't let children have ideas
They might want a real life

And I know
foxes mate
for life because
they're in love

    this is possibly the greatest song ever. Starts with a beautiful intro with so much going on. I LOVE it! This song always cheers me up, and gives me hope. It's lyrics are deriect, but I think there is a hidden meaning in all of it. Through the song I get the POSITIVE feeling towards sex, and love, but still he says "it will help you get through life" as if all we should be doing is getting through life. Idk. I have so many thoughts on this song. Also the title and chorus is just brilliant. It's so simple, but such an amazing thing. I can't beleive no one though of it sooner...

Blank Space
Taylor Swift
This song is Swift's response to the negative reputation the media has given her. "I can make the bad guys good for a weekend" - the bad guys are the paparazzi to Swift, but are good to the "player" since association with Swift immediately gives publicity. Any publicity is good publicity and Swift knows this. "You can tell me when it's over" - the tabloids rumor relationships are over before the couple announces it officially. With this song Swift is portraying the way she is portrayed by the media. It is a sarcastic jab at how she views herself and how her "ex-lovers" only wanted to be with her to increase their fame. I applaud the brilliance in writing about how you always write about relationships. It is expected so Swift is giving the media what they want and profiting off the attention.
