Lyrics
[Verse]
I was tappin' out a message
Feelin' kinda witty
A text to my best friend
Somethin' light and pretty
But my phone
It had a mind
Its own
You see
The autocorrect gremlins were havin' a spree
[Verse]
It changed "sup girl" to "soup ladle swirl"
"Catch you later" became "attack a potato pearl"
My jokes turned nonsensical
Grammar took a fall
The Ballad of the Autocorrect Fail
Worst message of all
[Chorus]
Oh
Autocorrect
You drive me insane
Messin' up my messages
Playin' silly games
I just wanna chat
Keep it cool and smooth
But you turn my words into a jumbled groove
(Verse 2)
Tried to write a love note, somethin' sweet and true
But it ended up soundin' like a recipe for fondue
"My heart beats for you" turned into "cauliflower gratin"
My love life was doomed, sealed by this digital villain
(Chorus)
It changed "meet for coffee" to "greet a faulty cough drop"
"Thinking of you" became "sinking into a hot pot"
The typos kept comin', my face turned bright red
The Ballad of the Autocorrect Fail, left me wishin' I was dead!
(Bridge)
But then I saw the humor, the absurdity so clear
My friend was laughin', tears streamin' down her cheek
Maybe the message wasn't what I planned at first
But it brought a smile, a connection that quenched our thirst
(Chorus)
It changed "goodnight" to "good knight in shining yacht"
"See you tomorrow" became "sea you in a hollowed-out cot"
The silliness united us, a bond that couldn't break
The Ballad of the Autocorrect Fail, a hilarious mistake
(Outro)
So next time my phone tries to play its tricks
I'll take a deep breath, and laugh instead of flippin' my lids
'Cause sometimes the wrong word can be just the right thing
A reminder to embrace the joy that laughter can bring
