Songs To Lyric Prank Your Best Friend

Let's be honest. Sometimes, silence is overrated. Especially when you have a best friend. And a phone.

What better way to break that silence than with some good old-fashioned lyric pranking? It's an art form, really.

The Art of Subtlety (Or Not)

First, you need a plan. Are you going for maximum confusion or a slow burn of recognition? I, personally, prefer the slow burn.

Pick a song that's slightly embarrassing. Maybe something from their guilty pleasure playlist. It’ll make it extra juicy.

Level 1: The Casual Encounter

Start with something seemingly innocent. "Hello, it's me." That's right, Adele. Classic. Unassuming.

Wait for their reply. Hopefully, it’s something like, "Hey! What's up?" Perfect. You've taken the bait.

Then hit them with, "I was wondering if after all these years you'd like to meet." Now things are getting interesting.

Level 2: The Escalation

Keep the momentum going. Don't crack! Play it cool. Pretend you have no idea what's going on.

Try, "To go over everything." This is where they might start to suspect something. Don’t falter!

If they haven't caught on by now, they're either very trusting or very oblivious. Either way, proceed!

Level 3: The Grand Finale

Drop the bomb. "They say that time's supposed to heal ya, but I ain't done much healing." Pow!

Watch the chaos unfold. The "WTFs," the question marks, the eventual realization. It’s glorious.

My unpopular opinion? Adele is *the* queen of lyric pranks. Her songs are just built for it.

The Song Choices That Will (Probably) Work

Let's move on to some other solid choices. Think about the hits, the anthems, the songs everyone knows (secretly or not).

"All Star" by Smash Mouth. Come on, who doesn't know that song? “Somebody once told me…” Come on!

"Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen. Okay, maybe a *bit* ambitious. But imagine the payoff! "Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?" The drama!

"Never Gonna Give You Up" by Rick Astley. The ultimate Rickroll. It’s a classic for a reason.

Bonus points if you can weave in some Backstreet Boys or Spice Girls. The nostalgia factor is strong.

Important Considerations (aka Don't Be A Jerk)

Know your audience. Don't prank someone who's having a genuinely bad day. Read the room (or, you know, the text messages).

Pick a song that isn't offensive or triggering. Keep it light and fun. The goal is laughter, not tears.

And finally, be prepared to be pranked back. It's only fair. Turnabout is fair play, as they say.

Just remember, it's all in good fun! So go forth, prank responsibly, and may the odds be ever in your favor.

Unless your best friend hates music. Then... maybe just send them a funny meme.
