Written in 2011 (performed at senior retreat in photo above), “Radio Love Song”is a satirical compilation of the lyrics of notable pop songs/and celebrity shenanigans on the radio & TV, at the time (2007-2011).The only time I played this was at my senior retreat, someone recorded it with their phone and kindly sent the audio file to me…which I then made into a weird slideshow…

For fun, try to get all of the references! (Answers will be revealed in a list, after the lyrics).
“Radio Love Song”: By Maureen Martin
Verse 1:
Baby you’re not my teenage dream
I don’t have a Poker Face that you can’t read
Your love is not my drug
I’m sorry, but I don’t take drugs
I’ve never not believed my eyes
Cause there’s never been 10 million fireflies
And Im not gunna write you a love song
About not writing you a love song…
Chorus:
But let’s run away and start a world
Where there’s no such thing as California girls
No Edward Cullen no Justin B
No boys or girls trying to
If-you-seek-amy
I promise to love you the best that I can
I promise to be there if you need me
I promise to make us a special place
I promise to never punch you in the face like Chris brown
Or stand there and watch you burn…
Cause who stands there and watches someone burn?
Verse 2:
No your not the only exception
The DJ didn’t catch us falling in love again
If you stop for a second, that song actually makes no
sense
Im sorry I can’t rap like Lil’ wayne
And I don’t think that air-o-planes are shooting stars
Cause shooting stars are shooting stars
Bridge:
Ok, if you look at me
I don’t fit in that society
No hooking no meth no jail
Just a ticket for speeding
And oh, I don’t want to be your Juliet or romeo
Cause they both die and suicides not the date that we should go on….
(Repeat Chorus)
