I don't know if this is the place for this, but god damn is the original Billy Joel song cringeworthy. "Making love to his tonic and gin", something absolutely nobody ever says (it's "gin and tonic"). "Talking to Davy who's still in the navy" is another example of mangling shit to fit the rhyme scheme. And it's all just a song about how awesome and better-than-this he, Billy Joel, is ("man, what are you doin' here?").
Would be the most lyrically embarrassing song of all time if not for "We Didn't Start the Fire".
Edit: I guess this is not the place for this lol.
What?!? Someone played with the English language in order to make lyrics rhyme and scan? How terrible!! glances at Shakespeare
it’s literally a song about how none of the people who are there should be there, but life happened. and i prefer the song where he maintains the rhyme scheme.
He's said in interviews that those were these people's real names. There was literally a real life dude named Davy who was in the Navy, is that the most unrealistic thing in the world?
Davy, or Davie, is an actual name that people use. It’s not a butchering of Dave. I have a supervisor named Davie
Damn right it is!
