The Lyrics

Part of my "Run Away" self-challenge. And for my Christmas present to myself, I'm gonna dunk on my least favourite song of the year.
This little number plagues my life because the radio hates me
Lewis Capaldi and his bare piano dreck drives me crazy
You hear this melody here? Familiar, no?
If not, then you have missed some memes, 'fraid so
Dragostea Din Tei, it's a very odd base
For this mopey-ass tripe, but that's the least of my pain

Ev'ry damn screech, each caterwaul
Grates on my ears, I really hate them all
Really bad contrast to the piano sludge
Just in case you haven't got the point: dear God, this tune sucks

Instrumentation's not as dull as A Great Big World's Say Something
But it's still awful and monotonous, I wanna start punching
And it's only the piano, no other sounds here
No drums, which just adds to the dreary-ass feel
I wish there was bass, you know what would be great?
Anything than just up-and-down repeating, it grates

Always pains me when this dude squawks
On this part here, like nails on boards for chalk
The lyrics boil down to whiny breakup mush
Nothing in there clever or unique, dear God, this tune sucks

And why does this bridge go high? Anti-vocal fry
Like someone trapped his balls
In the largest vice 'round leading to the worst sound

Same chords on repeat, bar the bridge part
And it's just here where they're just chords, so hard
For me to not frown and groan in sheer disgust
Whenever this thing starts playing since, dear God, this tune sucks
The way this twat screams like he stepped on
A Lego piece makes the pace of the song
Drag way further down than it already was
Abject failure keeps on piling up, dear God, this tune sucks
Still don't quite get how this mess hit number one
Let alone chart well at all because, dear God, this tune sucks

To be fair, I basically cribbed Todd in the Shadows' notes, but I tend to do that for I-hate-the-song-I'm-parodying parodies, given how he's much better at explaining these kinds of things than I am.

This song sucks so bad I couldn't hardly listen to it while reading your lyrics. It will forever be Dear God This Tune Sucks.
