A Cynical Look at Lyrics...
Tonight Patrick, my 19 year old non gay gay best friend (he knows I call him this, it’s ok) came out with: “I think people get to a point were they're past their peak and have to realise they’ll never get married and I think I’m fast approaching that point”
What utter nonsense! But much banter was had as we chatted and we talked about some lyrics as I revealed what they really mean…
Aerosmith “Don’t Want to Miss a Thing”
“I could stay awake just to hear you breathing”
Really means… You snore so loudly I can’t sleep
“Watch you smile while you are sleeping”
When you’re awake you only nag...
“While you’re far away dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender”
She’s far away and it’s sweet?! What a great relationship.
“I don’t want to miss one smile
I don’t want to miss one kiss”
Note how he doesn’t say “I don’t want to miss one sight of your morning hair” or “I don’t want to miss you when you have the flu”
Any other cynics out there want to join in?
