Baby You're a Firrrrrework!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My trip to LA, a few weeks ago, was eye opening, for several reasons. In this moment, I'm sharing with you just one of 'em. My best friend annoyingly kept belting out the chorus to Katy Perry's song Firework. The song, though poppy and catchy, got the gas face from me after seeing her perform it live. She sounded spotty, or pitchy or whatever Randy and nem would say on Idol. I hated it and she's verrrrry painful to watch, dance wise. Well, best friend and one of her fabulous friends did everything in their power to convince me to give her (Katy) another chance. "Feel it Boo. Get into it," she said. "Go online and listen to the song and read the lyrics. DO IT." Damn, okay. I promised I would. I did. This bytch right here (me) actually got teary eyed. I mean, I'm such a sucka for lyrics, good meaningful ones. Ms. Perry gets the green light and thumbs up from me. I just love the feeling of feeling connected to others' thoughts, especially when it's someone not in my category. Hope you enjoy it too.




Firework, the lyrics

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards, one blow from caving in?

Do you ever feel already buried deep?
Six feet under screams but no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there's still a chance for you
'Cause there's a spark in you?

You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July

'Cause baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, oh
As you shoot across the sky

Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, oh
You're gonna leave 'em falling down

You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow

Maybe you're reason why all the doors are closed
So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will blow
And when it's time, you'll know

You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July

'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, oh
As you shoot across the sky

Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, oh
You're gonna leave 'em falling down

Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It's always been inside of you, you, you
And now it's time to let it through

'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, oh
As you shoot across the sky

Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, oh
You're gonna leave 'em falling down

Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
