rivercityvibe   “Puerile, smutty, schoolboy nonsense” – My Mom

Once in a while Bones HQ receives an email that links to something so clever and DOWNRIGHT hilarious it get’s posted immediately. This is one of those “once in a whiles”. Let’s dispense with metaphor and dramatic symbolism and root ourselves firmly in the literal (which I usually hate). This is the literal version of Bonnie Tyler’s seminal Total Eclipse of the Heart We shall watch, then discuss:

OKay, some of my takeaways from the lyrics which are pure genius:

All references to the emo kid (as you know, I hate emos. And Hipsters). Particularly, “emo kid is throwing slo-mo dove in my face”

“And they should not fence at night or they’re going to hurt the gymnasts”

“I’m swaying side-to-side, these dancers need to stop, the gayest man on earth would call this over-the-top”

“It started out as Hogwarts now it’s Lord Of the Flies” (I’ve never heard of “Hogwarts” but I have a 1st Am. Edition of LOTF. It rocks).

“You’re making it worse”

Lag! Notice I am glossing over my recent lack of posts. All I can say is that my Bridge Demolition Skills are vastly improved, but I am off chicken and rice.
