I Want It That Way....Wait, What?

So I’m having wireless internet/laptop/wrong version of Word issues. It’s making it very difficult to work. And, I’m bound to a desktop. Yes, bound.

Anyway, my dad had the ‘love’ station playing while he was working in the garage. (Not joking, he really did have it on, and why wouldn’t Sirius have a ‘love’ station?) So ‘I Want It That Way’ by the Backstreet Boys was playing. (waiting for your teenage screams to end….and now.)

Let’s take a look at these lyrics, shall we? I think I’ll post the actual lyrics, and a little story to go along with them because it sounds fun. Original lyrics are on the left...my "interpretations" are on the right. Yes, hello Captain Obvious.

And for the record....I'm not a fan of HTML....no really.

"I Want It That Way"

Yeah.....................................Really?

You are my fire..........................Why thank you.
The one desire...........................I am the desire?
Believe when I say.......................I’m listening.
I want it that way.......................What way? The rhyming way?

But we are two worlds apart..............Like from sea to shining sea?
Can't reach to your heart................K, I don’t know you that well.
When you say.............................Time out. I didn’t say anything.
That I want it that way..................But I don’t want it that way.

[Chorus:]
Tell me why..............................I’d rather not.
Ain't nothin' but a heartache............What heartache? Oh, you get attached easily.
Tell me why..............................We’ve already discussed this.
Ain't nothin' but a mistake..............Oh, mistake and heartache. Clever.
Tell me why..............................Now, I’m just getting angry.
I never wanna hear you say...............I reiterate myself. I didn’t say anything.
I want it that way.......................WHAT WAY?

Am I your fire...........................No, I met you once. At a gas station.
Your one desire..........................GAS STATION.
Yes I know it's too late.................There you go again, talking nonsense.
But I want it that way...................Good for you. Whatever way that is.

[Chorus]

Now I can see that we're falling apart...I repeat myself. We were never together.
From the way that it used to be, yeah....You want to pump gas again?
No matter the distance...................Cue sunset. Now you’re talking gibberish.
I want you to know.......................I don’t care to know.
That deep down inside of me..............Ok, I really, really don’t care to know. TMI

You are my fire..........................Ok, I’m getting a restraining order.
The one desire...........................500 yards mister.
You are..................................Complete your thought. Not near you?
You are, you are, you are................Don’t let the CD skip. It’s annoying.

Don't wanna hear you say.................Restraining order?
Ain't nothin' but a heartache............No, heartache.
Ain't nothin' but a mistake..............For stalking me? Yes, a mistake.
(Don't wanna hear you say)...............I never said anything.
I never wanna hear you say...............Really? You’ve got nothing better.
I want it that way.......................You have it that way, with someone else.

Tell me why..............................Not talking to you, 500 yards.
Ain't nothin' but a heartache............Ain’t ain’t a word.
Tell me why..............................Stop talking.
Ain't nothin but a mistake...............No really.
Tell me why..............................I don’t know what else to say to you.
I never wanna hear you say...............You won’t. Read the restraining order
(Don't wanna hear you say it)............I won’t.
I want it that way.......................You can have it your way okay?
I want it that way.......................I’m never going to that gas station again.
