Lyrics in two songs by the same group or artist with opposite or nearly opposite statements, which taken together suggest a contradiction, inconsistency, or change in outlook. The following are all examples of songtradictions:
1) A Madonna Songtradiction- "'Cause the boy with the cold hard cash is always Mr. Right, 'cause we are living in a material world and I am a material girl" - Material Girl "You don't need diamond rings or eighteen karat gold. Fancy cars that go very fast, you know they never last, no, no." - Express Yourself 2) A U2 Songtradiction: "If you want to kiss the sky, better learn how to kneel" - Mysterious Ways "Blessings not just for the ones who kneel, luckily" - City of Blinding Lights 3) A Destiny's Child Songtradiction: "Pay my own fun, oh and I pay my own bills. Always 50/50 in relationships" - Independent Woman "Can you pay my bills? Can you pay my telephone bills? Can you pay my automo'bills? Then maybe we can chill. I don't think you do, so you and me are through" - Bills, Bills, Bills |
