No. The man (One Brandon Dick Flowers) will write any garbage as long as it fits the tune and he repeatedly commits idiotic lyrics and is attributed to most of the face palm quotes of the last decade. He's directly and indirectly responsible for distributing such solid cringeworthy stinkers as "somebody told me that you had a boyfriend who looked like a girlfriend that I had in February of last year", "Pace yourself for me I said maybe, baby, please", "Exoneration lost his eraser but my forgiver found the sun", or "I have a soul but I'm not a soldier" (I have a home but I'm not a hamster, I have a loo but I'm not a lunatic, I have a... we all get the picture) to name but few. There is no poetic license and no book quote there. He wrote are we human or are we dancer because it fitted the workprint and no one was there to point out that if he changed it to "denser" the lyrics would only sound half as bad.
 
Im of the opinion that all chart tracks will have any old crap written as long as it rhymes.

I mean, it's not even that they dont make sense. One of Bob Dylans greatest songs, All Along the Watchtower makes absolutely sod all sense from start to finish, but its still something to think about.

And im not that one guy who only likes music from the 70s or earlier. I like a lot of recent bands. 30 Seconds to Mars, for example, ive formed a mild obsession with. Even some of that drum'n'bass dubstepppy hippity hop stuff, or whatever it is, is in my collection. But chart music is the work of Lucifer.

I'm not particularly a fan of the track but aren't you a little bit late to the party here, it's been out for months now. If you just wanted to pick on stupid songs with Jagger in the title then Swagger Jagger as sung by Cher Lloyd is surely a better candidate for your ire?

Shouldnt that have been swagger jacker all along? Hence the line 'why don't you get some of your own'

I'll defer to your greater knowledge of the song, either I've never listened to it right the way through or my memory has blocked it out. I think it's probably safe to say it's terrible and derivative though.
 
:D

I checked my own theory out:

A miss interpretation/ Miss hearing of "Swagger Jacker".

Commonly misheard by uneducated, illiterate teenagers, who think they are "Gangstar as ****".

The term is infact Swagger JACKER: Someone who "Jacks" your look, style, sound etc... Taking it and passing it of as their own look/Material/****, Etc....
"Yagetme"?

If they spent more time listening and less time chatting **** they might manage to look a bit more "in" and less like the wet drip that they truly are.

Cher Lloyd hs produced a terrible CD using the miss interpretation "Swagger Jagger" Thus making her both a national laughing stock and an embarrassment to this country.
