Pop music from the Obama years that was all sunshine and stupid, like America had finally gotten its head out of its ass. It was full of dumb songs about flying and sparkles, like the whole country was high on glitter and bad decisions.
'Like a G6' was the soundtrack to my middle school dance, where I tripped and spilled glitter everywhere.
My mom texted me 'Starships' while she was stuck in traffic, which was like the worst kind of torture.
I tried to sing 'Firework' in the shower, and my shower clogged up with glitter and soap.

Obama pop was the sound of America being lazy and happy, like we had no idea the world was about to crash again. All those songs about flying and shining were just people pretending life was perfect, even though the economy was barely breathing.
My uncle posted 'Diamonds' on Facebook and said he was rich, but he still lives in his mom's basement.
My friend tried to be 'Locked Out of Heaven' and failed, which was the worst kind of failure.
My teacher made us listen to 'Starships' during math class, and I failed the test.

Obama pop was like the soundtrack to a really bad dream where everything was bright and happy, but no one actually cared about anything real. People were too busy singing about the sky to notice the ground was still烂 under them.
I texted my crush 'Firework' and he replied with a photo of his cat wearing glitter.
My brother tried to dance to 'Like a G6' and fell off the couch.
I sang 'Starships' in the car, and my mom yelled at me for 20 minutes.
