The Lyrics

Think the title's pretty self-explanatory for this one.
I've seen lots of crap now, but this one type of farce
Happens way too often, you'll know ev'ry part
Someone wants attention and their first thought how
Is to tap into the hate rivals can bring out

"If you like this post more than that guy
I will try and drop my art's price"
All that I can see? A dumb contest for likes
The one thing I see, a dumb contest for likes
Folks online see an empty spotlight
They will fight for the briefest shine
All that I can see? A dumb contest for likes
The one thing I see, a dumb contest for likes

Awkward situation they've put themselves in
No way to tell who genuinely likes what they just clicked
True context is missing but I have no doubt
Each click is elating to these fools, no pouts

Hits will climb, ego shoots to the sky
All the while, I sit here and sigh
All that I can see? A dumb contest for likes
The one thing I see, a dumb contest for likes
Piece of pie to attract the spotlight
May not like the comments you'll find
All that I can see? A dumb contest for likes
The one thing I see, a dumb contest for likes

A dumb contest for likes

Folks online want to hog the spotlight
It's so bright, you long for that shine
All that I can see? A dumb contest for likes
The one thing I see, a dumb contest for likes
But have I ever shared the same style?
No way I'll confirm or deny
All that I can see? A dumb contest for likes
The one thing I see, a dumb contest for likes
It ain't right, who will stop it? Not I
All that I can see? A dumb contest for likes
I can't lie, it's impressively shite

I know I've mentioned before how sometimes parodying the same song Weird Al's done can trip me up. I think this is the first time that parodying a song I"m more familiar with because of a mashup has threatened to do my head in. Good thing it's just a basic synth-pop number and not some Busta Rhymes type speed rap, am i right? Oh yeah, I went there.
