    The lines I hate are:

    He was a boy, she was a girl
    Can I make it any more obvious?

    Because it’s just bad writing. Those are the first words to the song. So can she make WHAT any more obvious? Just because their sex organs are compatible they’re obviously into each other? WTF?

      Lots of popular song have terrible lyric just to pass the rhythm check anyway. Like Yellow from Coldplay where everyone likes:

      Your skin, oh yeah your skin and bones
      Turn into something beautiful

      Like, excuse me what. The whole song makes no sense but it got the vibe. Sometimes the lyric is an excuse for artist to pump out nice music. Try dissect the song you liked before, chance are you gonna run into a lot of these blunder.

        I fucking hate Coldplay.

        Guess I feel vindicated because I’ve never really listened to the lyrics.

      I always figured there was an implied [and I’m singing a song about them] before that “can I make it any more obviou?”
