Weekend Songs That Aren’t By Rebecca Black

Written by Steph

An admission: I haven’t even listened to the Rebecca Black song yet. Do I need to? Its lyrics have been plastered all over every social network in existence by every person I have and haven’t met. I know she talks about cereal, the bus, and fun. Which… no. I do not relate. I am not 13 anymore, sorry dudes. Weekends are not all FUN FUN FUN – they’re CHILL ERRANDS DRINKS. And okay, occasionally, fun. Lowercase fun.
