Lyric of the Week

Artist: Owl City

Song: Dental Care

Lyrics: When hygienists leave on long vacations/That's when dentists scream and lose their patience.

In honor of my recent dental woes I decided to discuss a song that is not so new, but still so catchy. Dental Care is one of my favorite Owl City songs. It is full of crazy puns like the one above. For example Adam sings, “I’ve been to the dentist a thousand times so I know the drill.” Punny right? The song also makes a light cheery joke about dental fears (which are no laughing matter!) but is still so fun to listen to. Every time I go to the dentist now and see how nice and patient the hygienists are I can’t help but think about this song and how right Adam Young really is. Adam also lends his trademark electronic music to this track which ultimately makes it a really fun silly song.
