about

‘These Love Songs Don’t Make Sense’ is a satirical jab at all the typical pop-punk love songs that seem to be everywhere these days. With a playful punk sound the track feels a little like a less serious Green Day with no real agenda. Very catchy, “These Love Songs Don’t Make Sense” doesn’t weaken due to the simplicity of its subject matter; the music has a distinct punk sound with a complex rattling of fast guitars and rolling drums.

Andrew J C Nicholls - SQ Showcase

lyrics

Listening to the new songs that the radio puts on
All they seem to song about is this thing that they call love
Call me skeptical, call me insecure I don't know
They want to give a constellation and the moon on a stick
To their latest proclaimation, I must have missed a trick
Do I wanna hear about two more people getting it on?
I don't know, but I don't think so

And it's all "yeah, yeah" and "ooh babe"s and "I want you back"
"If I were with you babe, I wouldn't feel trapped"
Big concert brand bands with shiny bronze tans
Is it all pretend? These loves songs, they don't make sense

Scrolling through my latest Facebook applications
Contemplating inviting the object of my affections
'What Drink Are You?' 'Will You Be My Best Friend?' I don't know
Check my empty inbox, have a practice on the guitar
Did no-one think to inform me that the single life is this hard
With so many friends how could I feel lonely
I don't know, but I never thought so

And it's all "yeah, yeah" and "ooh babe"s and "I want you back"
"If I were with you babe, I wouldn't feel trapped"
Big concert brand bands with shiny bronze tans
Is it all pretend? These loves songs, they don't make sense

I sit there and watch her
I suddenly wonder
I didn't know I liked you
Do you find me attractive too?
Struck dumb with nothing to say
I've become a love song cliche
Oh no! From now on it's 'ya-da ya-da'

And it's all "yeah, yeah" and "ooh babe"s and "I want you back"
"If I were with you babe, I wouldn't feel trapped"
Big concert brand bands with shiny bronze tans
Is it all pretend? These loves songs, they finally make sense

They finally make sense
