The Lyrics

What happens when the "girls scream at horror movies" trope is taken all the way to eleven...
At the movies with my girl
I wish she didn't pick a horror
Don't have problems keepin' my lunch down
It's the way she always freaks, ow, girl
Though I'd like to hold her hand
I know that she would crush my fingers
I could get used to it, it's true, but I don't like
The awful way she screams, oh no

Her voice gets pretty high now (she's got a super shriek)
The kind of pitch you hear about (sixteen miles over, geez)
My girl is pretty twitchy (lets loose her super shriek)
It's not enough to hate her (not a knobhead, please)
Screams so high, screams so high
Just way too high for me, yeah-eah-eah
Hey, hey, hey, hey!

Got a super shriek, super shriek, she's super shrieky, ow
At near ev'rything
Super shriek, super shriek

I don't want to diss my girl (things 'bout my girl you need to know)
But my eardrums are a tad frail (can't take the screams, yeah)
'Cause it's not just the big moments that get her set
To go wild and freak (holds her panic button down)
Each cam'ra cut, each sudden sting (the orchestra makes her jump)
I'm guessin' about three times a scene (jump)
Have to book us in in advance, solo screenin'
There's only her with me

'Cause ev'ryone would kill me (after her super shriek)
And her as well, I have no doubt (she did make their ears bleed)
Her scream is pretty high now (she's got a super shriek)
It could crack the projector (or the giant screen)
Screams so high, screams so high
Just way too high for me, yeah-eah-eah
Hey, hey, hey, hey!

Got a super shriek, super shriek, she's super shrieky, ow
Ears always ring
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Super shriek, super shriek, she's got a super shriek
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

I love movies with my girl
As long as they're nowhere near horror
She swears she's practicin' keepin' it down
Now it's down to once a scene, true, sadly
Still hurts
Still hurts

Ah, all ready in case that Nicki Minaj song ends up in DJ Earworm's year-end mashup. I wish these songs that lazily sample other songs that are on my list but I haven't gotten to yet would happen earlier in the year so it doesn't feel like I'm scrambling. 'Cause I HATE scrambling.

Should've taken her to a romance movie instead. Brilliant rewrite!

That would make sense, but then were wouldn't be no brilliant rewrite, would there? Food for thought, which is cheaper than theatre snacks. Cheers for the comment, CCR!
