->''When your tummy has an ache, you go, "for crying out sakes", the words you say don't even come out right. If your throat's got you down, you sound like scratchy town, who needs to talk when you can draw or write? So plan a trip even with those chapped-up lips. Go watch YouTube, you're forgiven if you're rude..(later) Sorry if your tummy's kind of peeved. Imagination's really all you need. Wash your hands, make that plan, easy to take the stand, no germs go to the next man. Wash every single time, even if there's a line, no germs to the next wo-MAN.''

->Every single line of dialogue is a rhyming couplet, which is a cute idea as gimmicks go, but several thousand couplets down the line, you can practically taste the blood running from the writer's eyeballs - as in, "the most utterly tortured possible way / arranges the words of another sentence do they," with absolutely no understanding of rhythm, they probably think iambic pentameter is some kind of handheld device for measuring sunspots. And I know it doesn't sound like a big problem, but constant little niggles mount up to big ones.

-->-- '''{{Music/Oasis}}''', "She's Electric"

-->''She's electric//
She's in a family full of eccentrics//
She's done things I never expected//
And I need more time//
She's got a sister//
And god only knows how I've missed her//
On the palm of her hand is a blister//

-->''She's got a brother//
We don't get on with one another//
But I quite fancy her mother//
And I think that she likes me//
She's got a cousin//
In fact she's got 'bout a dozen//
She's got one in the oven//
But it's nothing to do with me
