Grammar Nazi
Reese Lansangan Lyrics

See I like a boy – cute and nice and tall
The singer likes a boy who is cute, nice, and tall.

But there’s one problem (Guess what)
However, there is one issue.

He couldn’t spell right at all
He has poor spelling skills.

And I know that’s not the end all – be all
Although poor spelling isn't everything.

But it really kinda blows
It's still frustrating.

Poor guy doesn’t even like book (I know!)
He doesn't even like books.

And sometimes, it shows
This lack of interest can show in his grammar and spelling mistakes.

Her mother specifically mentioned the boy's inability to correctly use apostrophes.

And don’t look at me when I look at you
The singer is uncomfortable when the boy looks at her and uses incorrect grammar such as saying 'stuffs'.

Whenever you say “stuffs”
The boy uses the incorrect grammar of saying 'stuffs'.

‘Cause that’s my cue (RETCHHH)
This triggers the singer's disgust.

I’m not a nazi- I just care about good grammar
The singer cares about good grammar but does not identify as a Nazi.

He paparazzi (okay), I just said that ‘cause it rhymed
She compares herself to paparazzi because it rhymes with 'Nazi' but this is not an accurate comparison.

But don’t you dare commit a grammar crime on me
She warns others not to use incorrect grammar in her presence.

You type “lose” with one o if you’re losing your mind
She corrects the spelling of the word 'lose'.

Two O’s for describing bowel movements of any kind
The word 'ooze' is used to describe bowel movements.

You see “your” and “you’re”
She discusses the difference between the words 'your' and 'you're'.

They’re two, two different things, baby
She emphasizes the difference between the two words.

It’s YOUR problem YOU’RE confused
She uses a clever play on words to further emphasize the difference.

But I’mma help you out with the words you use, yea
She offers to help others with their grammar mistakes.

I suggest you brush up on your subject-verb agreement
She suggests that others learn about subject-verb agreement in grammar.

If we keep this up, it’s gonna be a commitment

You never say “Dogs barks” – you just say “bark”
Correct grammar would be to say 'dog barks' instead of 'dogs barks'.

She encourages the person to pay attention so they can improve their grammar.

Double negatives and all its relatives
She talks about the issue of double negatives and related grammar mistakes.

Don’t sound no good if they ain’t in a rap song
Correct grammar is important and improper grammar may sound out of place.

I’m gonna break it down to you
She will explain the correct grammar to others.

I hate it when you say “furnitures”
She doesn't like it when people say 'furnitures' instead of 'pieces of furniture'.

When you mean “pieces of furniture”
She is clarifying the correct phrase.

She emphasizes the importance of pluralizing correctly.

The English language doesn’t deserve to be compromised

Learn it, else I’ll be holding a grudge

THERE’S two baby cubs
She corrects the incorrect phrase 'There's two'.

And THEIR momma lion
She correctly uses the possessive form of 'their'.

And THEY’RE together it’s as clear as day

Who would you believe more?
