Doesn't have to be the title, but the theme of the song, lyrically.6. The Pursuit of Happiness - I'm an Adult NowI disagree with this one. While it does mention parents ("Well I don't hate my parents / I don't get drunk just to spite them / I've got my own reasons to drink now / Think I'll call my dad up and invite him"), the theme of the song isn't his parents, it's the way he's become an adult (I don't think parents are mentioned anywhere else in the song).Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmoothedShredder Posted May 14, 2007 Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 I don't think it's you... but that really pissed me off. Like holy fack, this is a game?! right?! How ABOUT does ABOUT have to be?... not like the song was instrumental about Rivers (which incidentally I could concieve as being the parents of the ocean)... Talk about contributing to the uptight vibe of the board! My time would be better off concieving of an alternative way to score baseball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
