Katy Perry's Hit Song
ROAR Backwards
Here's The Song Forwards:
Katy Perry - Roar (Official)

Other than the lyrics snatching key lines
from Survivor and Muhammed Ali;
and the lack of a much needed
"Don't Try This At Home" notice,
when she comes face to face
with wild animals,
especially the crocodile and tiger;
I find the song empowering.
Kind of a Shanna of the Jungle version
of the Gloria Gaynor hit I Will Survive.
Fun song.
Fun video.
Clever.
Upbeat.
With snippets of humor here and there.

Katy Perry - Roar (Official Video) [Reversed]

I don't know about you,
but the first thing I noticed
was that all the words were backwards.
That means that the tattoo on her right arm
which means: "Go With The Flow"
now means: "Flow With The Go"
Or: "Wolf With The Go"
Or technically speaking: "wolF ehT htiW oG"
I had so much with my Carly Rae backwards post
a couple years ago,
so I tried to relive the fun six weeks ago
with Ylvis backwards.
With those songs;
and this one,
I didn't watch videos where they told me
what was being said.
Instead I listened for myself.
Unfortunately,
all I could hear was:
"Glory makes an Igo net."
Sounds innocent enough.
But must be pretty important though,
since that's the main line of the song.
I wanted to remain as rational as possible,
and certainly not jump to any crazy conclusions,
so after a moment's thought,
I immediately deduced
that an Igo net is what demons use
to steal the souls of unsuspecting villagers
during the Dark Ages.
In the demons' defense,
it was dark,
so maybe they weren't try to steal anyone's soul.
They were just trick-or-treating;
and, as usual, things just got out of hand.
Putting two and two together,
we can easily assume that if she's singing
about demonic possession backwards,
then forwards,
the song must be about knitting a sweater.
Ergo,
the phrase could actually be:
"Glory makes me wanna knit."
That actually makes sense,
since the song came out a bit before fall last year.
When everyone would need to knit sweaters.
But,
despite all my deductive reason
and perverse logic.
Ahem,
I mean, pervasive logic.
Turns out that Gloria Kampenski
help Katy hook up a charger to her GPS.
And so,
as it turns out,
with Igo being a brand of charger,
as well as a type of computer network,
I was absolutely right the first time.
"Glory makes an Igo net."
Well,
absolutely right,
minus the demon possession allegations.
And maybe the part about
my using reasoning and logic.
Like any guy,
gazing into Katy Perry's
captivating and hypnotic blue eyes,
could ever use reasoning and logic.
(That was supposed to be a compliment.)
(And this was supposed to be fun.)
(Thank you Katy for having a sense of humor.)
(And thank you Gloria Kampenski,
whose name I can't forget.
Now I know whom to call
when I need an Igo net.)

You see weird things driving.
I’ve never understood log trucks.
Sometimes you’ll be out on the highway,
you see two big giant trucks loaded up with logs;
and they pass each other on the highway.
I don’t understand that.
I mean, if they need logs over there;
and they need ‘em over there;
you'd think a phone call
would save ‘em a whole lot of trouble.

Trees that grow in smoggy cities
are needed to make carbon paper.
Dean Burkey:
Oh, you wanted to watch Water for Elephants?
I must’ve misunderstood what you said.
‘Cause I got Rivers for Rhinos instead.
I hope that’s okay.
If not, I also have Puddles for Pandas,
Tributaries for Tigers,
and Melted Ice for Marsupials.
They misnamed the movie anyway;
it should be called “Water for Elephant”.
(‘Cause there’s only one elephant.)
I still have my Christmas Tree.
I looked at it today.
Sure enough,
I couldn’t see any forests.
Steven Wright:
The other day when I was walking through the woods,
I saw a rabbit standing in front of a candle
making shadows of people on a tree.
