The past couple of weeks that I've been trolling the radio stations hoping to hear a handful of songs.  It wasn't until recently that I stopped to think about the patterns of these particular songs.  Here, I'll post the choruses to a few of them.  See if you pick up the pattern (it's not hard).

"You stole my happy, you made me cry
Took the lonely and took me for a ride

And I wanna undo it
You had my heart, now I want it back

I'm starting to see everything you lack
Boy, you blew it, you put me through it

I wanna undo it"

"Hey white liar
The truth comes out a little at a time
And it spreads just like a fire
Slips off of your tongue like turpentine
And i don´t know why
White liar"

"I won't let you turn around, and tell me now I'm much too proud. All you do is fill me up with doubt.
This time baby I'll be bulletproof"

"According to you: I'm stupid, I'm useless, I can't do anything right.;
According to you I suck at telling jokes cause I always give it away;
I'm the girl with the worst attention span, you're the boy who puts up with it
According to you.
But according to him: I'm beautiful, incredible, he can't get me out of his head
According to him: I'm funny, irresistible, everything he ever wanted
Everything is opposite
I don't feel like stopping it
So baby tell me what I got to lose
He's into me for everything I'm not, according to you"

Yes, I'm trolling the radio stations for crappy pop music, but that wasn't the pattern I meant.

All of these songs written and sung by very angry females.  They're all "eff you's" to their exes.  Once I realized this, I couldn't stop laughing.  I mean, honestly.  I'm not at all angry or bitter about anything that has happened, in recent history or ancient.  And, really, I don't have any reason to be even if I were.  So why the hell are these songs stuck in my head and forcing me to scroll endlessly through the radio stations?  Because they're catchy?  Sure, let's chalk it up to that.
