I think it's Bitch by Meredith Brooks
I'm with the orcas.
Sink them all.
Aren't they going after sailboats? These aren't like mega-yachts owned by Bezos. It's like someone's entire life savings, retirement plan
So you make enough money to purchase a luxury boat? Well do I have THE vacation destination for you!
These have mostly been small sailing vessels, and in some cases the family home. We're not talking about the 1% here.
Is anyone else bothered by the addition of the word "just", which throws off the whole rhythm and doesn't need to be there in any way?
It works if you pronounce the last word as three syllables. I don't know if that's the correct way to pronounce it, but it is the American way to pronounce it.
"I'm a bitch"
3 syllables
"I'm an orca"
4 syllables
"Sinking yachts"
3 syllables
"Off Majorca"
4 syllables
Adding "Just" makes it 5, which is too many for the pattern
Also, "Imma hit you with my tail" is one syllable too many. "I'll" would work better.
5 works just fine.
It's awkward, especially since the "just" is completely unnecessary.
Naw, the line should only be 4 syllables. "I'm a mother" is the og.
I'd imagine whoever wrote this doesn't know how to pronounce Majorca
I know how that's my favorite Zelda game
I smoked majorka's ass once.
GUD SHIT
