Figures of Speechin music

Carrie Underwood – Before He CheatsOh and he don't know...

That I dug my key into the side of his Pretty little souped up four wheel drive

Carved my name into his leather seatI took a Louisville slugger to both head lights

Mario – Let Me Love YouBaby I just don’t get itDo you enjoy bein’ hurt

I know you smell the perfume…the make-up on his shirt

Black Eyed Peas – Boom Boom PowBoom boom boom, gotta get getBoom boom boom , gotta get getBoom boom boom , gotta get get

There's a little creepy house in a little creepy place Little creepy town in a little creepy world

Little creepy girl with her little creepy face Saying funny things that you have never heard

Now that I escape, sleepwalker awake Those who could relate know the world ain't cake Jail bars ain't golden gates Those who fake, they break, When they meet their 400 pound mate

I play my enemies like a game of chess, where I rest, No stress

If you don't smoke sess, lest. I must confess, my destiny's manifest

In some Goretex and sweats I make treks like I'm homeless

Rap orgies with Porgy and Bess, Capture your bounty like Elliot Ness, YES

You a mom and pop, I’m a corporationI’m the press conference, you a conversation
