lyrics

We can't be the only people who are desperately missing karaoke. Singing our favorite songs with complete strangers or a group of close friends is such a liberating feeling - and one that we can't wait to relive. Until then, we settle for singing with the radio in the car, or while we dance while cleaning our homes. These memes provide a different kind of substitution, and they've got a few things in common. They're all funny, and they're all riffs on popular lyrics that we know and love. Who knew a meme could be a remix?

We're not gonna say that these parody lyrics are better than the original "Eleanor Rigby," but they are pretty darn amusing. Try to come up with your own version because we aren't clever enough to come up with anything more charming than the following examples!

Okay, we have to admit that here at Membase we're a little obsessed with "Old Town Road" by Lil Nas X featuring Billy Ray Cyrus, but how could you not be? The song is a frickin' bop that went from Tik Tok viral sensation to having well over 78 million streams on Spotify.

And if you, like many people, have no clue in hell what the lyrics are saying or are curious about what they actually mean, we've got you covered with the video below. Enjoy!

Yeah, I'm gonna take my horse to the old town road

I'm gonna ride 'til I can't no more

We all know that feeling of realizing that what you thought were the lyrics to a particular song were actually completely wrong. These tweets are similar, but they intentionally f*ck up the lyrics to popular songs, arguably making them better. 

We're pretty big fans of this style of parody, and we hope you like 'em too.

Congratulations, friends and followers. Monday is finally a wrap. Here are some delightfully dumb memes to keep you from going completely and utterly insane. You're welcome.

Millennials' favorite song, "Mr. Brightside," was already a shimmering gem, but it gets a wonderful new take when re-imagined in the Star Wars prequel universe. If you want to sing along with the video linked above, we won't even be mad.

Twitter user Mike Recinestarted a fun trend when he texted his girlfriend a "poem" that was actually the lyrics to the King of Queens theme song. She bought it, and responded with a flourish of heart eyed emojis. Since tweeting about his experience, other Twitter users have been trying the prank on for size - to mixed results!
