Your Word

Your Definition

Any exceptionally stupid or [illiterate] phrase found in a pop song.  [Particularly] if it's then defended or expounded upon in various "meanings of lyrics" sites or in fan writing.  A lot of pop stars were so totally created by parents/managers/agents/etc. that they went straight from a suburban bedroom to the celeb suites without having read a book or talked to a real person on the way, getting all their alleged education from other pop songs and tv.

The words "fork stuck in the road" originally occurred in a Green Day song, and in a later interview (urban legend has it) the songwriter came up with a long story about how people on journeys would stick a dinner fork into the road to show they'd been there or some such -- apparently being unaware that a dinner fork was originally  a "forked spoon", i.e. one that split, the way a forked stick or a forked road splits, and that a "[fork in the road]" is a place where you make a decision, not a milestone or boundary marker.  (I can find no [evidence] that any such interview occurred, but it seems to be widely believed in).
