This cheeky meta-line works so well, its repeated again in a later verse! "Invest in this pussy, boy, support Black business" – Megan Thee Stallion, ‘ Sugar Baby’
Turns out Jono Mata, frontman for these Perth rockers, definitely can write an opening line. "Can't write an opening line to save my life." - Sly Withers, ' Cracks' Marking 250 years since Captain Cook arrived at Fraser Island, Birdz writes from the perspective of a young Butchulla warrior watching the Endeavour and the Muthar ('white man' in Butchalla language) sail past, and the anticipation of preparing to resist invasion. “Standing on the shoreline, Cook man coming Muthar wanna cross mine, wanna take it from me/Fire in my eyes but we ain’t running” - Birdz, ' Bagi-la-m Bargan' ft. "I'm taking selfies on my Game Boy Camera/Doom 2 paused I'm gonna play it later" - Obscura Hail, ' Penumbra'ĭipping into the memory bank and bringing back the biggest lyrical flashback of the year, this nostalgic and super-catchy refrain led us on a wild eBay hunt to buy back our childhoods. In fact, this whole list could just be Punisher lyrics tbqh. This is just one of many incredible turns of phrase from Punisher, Bridgers' highly acclaimed second album.
"The doctor put her hands on my liver/She told me my resentment's getting smaller" - Phoebe Bridgers, ' Garden Song' These raw bars definitely hit different given the circumstances of the 21-year-old rapper's death, but the honesty is still bittersweet. "Taking medicine to fix all of the damage/My anxiety the size of a planet" - Juice WRLD, ' Righteous' Oli and Louis Leimbach have a knack for cheeky lyrics, and it's hard going past this bit of choccy wordplay as among their best. "Your life's a Violet Crumble, you're flaky and you're dark" - Lime Cordiale, ' Screw Loose' This chorus epitomises how Spacey can make sunny sing-alongs outta sad situations, delivering raw honesty with warmth and vibrant melody. "Well, you held me from the back of the front seat/And you told me all the times that you'd lied to me Well, I felt like a kid, like I could touch my feet/ As they hovered above the ground in my booster seat" - Spacey Jane, ' Booster Seat'Īll together now, ' Oh-oh-ooooooh/Well, it feels like that again'. One of 2020's strongest bops also had one of its most relatable choruses. THE GOOD "When did everything here get so f**king complicated." - Eves Karydas, ' Complicated'
