Person 1: Daily, nightly and ever so rightly.

Person 2: Damn son, you need a helmet to protect those lyrics

Lyrics by hott coco May 25, 2004
the spoken word of a song on the verge of being destroyed by modern 'music' used to have meaning is now used to show that people are lovesick, emo, or just annoying
stereotypical teenager1: i love the lyrics to taylor swift's new song
me: listen to some real music i don't wanna hear that annoying lovesick voice
stereotypical teenager2: yea you need to listen to eminem's not afraid!
me:...
*walks out being disgusted by how kids love songs without any meaning*
lyrics by music is dead November 8, 2010
Just the poetry of a song. It's what some stupid people (especially most rap & emo fans) confuse with music.

*50 Cent "music" in the background

50 Cent fan: Dude, I love this guy's music!
Me: You mean just his lyrics! Any rhyme that has a bar-long bassline is only good to read. Dumbass...
