Real Lyrics -> Bad Grammar in Song Lyrics -> Jordin Sparks
Song lyrics aren't supposed to be a fountain of perfect english, but on the other hand some are just so atrocious, they need to get called out. We're not looking for sentance fragments or the word ain't since there are too many instances to count.

Jordin Sparks', "Permanent Monday"
The Lyrics:
And the hours move too slow
And I just wish that you were holding me near
And I just wish that you were holding me near
Why:
'Slow' is an adjective, you need an adverb to describe the passage of time. Yet it is so easy to fix, too.
Sensible replacement:
And the hours move too slowly
I just wish that you were holding me near
Sensible replacement:
And the hours move too slowly
I just wish that you were holding me near
