Line 29:
* [[Heterosexual Life Partners]]: "BFFF" is essentially a love song from one partner to another, even saying "I'm tryin' to say I love you in a heterosexual way."
* [[High School]]: "High School Never Ends".
* [[Last -Second Word Swap]]: The entire chorus of "Friendly Goodbye".
{{quote| "Ain't that a bee with an itch. Ain't that a mother-trucker. You can go to H-E double hockey sticks and F yourself! 'Cause I'm flippin' gosh darn sick of all the S-words you put me though."}}
** Also "99 Biker Friends"
Line 40:
* [[Rashomon Style]]: "I'll Always Remember You (That Way)" is about a past romantic tryst as narrated by the former lovers (emphasizing rather different details of the same event).
* [[Real Song Theme Tune]]: "Knights of the Zodiac", the [[Bowdlerise|DiC dub]] of ''[[Saint Seiya]]'', used the Bowling for Soup cover of [[A Flock of Seagulls]] song "I Ran (So Far Away)", and [[Phineas and Ferb|"Today is Gonna Be a Great Day".]]
* [[Silly Love Songs]]: "Smoothie King" despite some of its [[Anti -Love Song]] lyrics ("Love songs suck and fairy tales aren't true/And 'Happy ending: Hollywood' is not for me and you."). It's about finding that person who drives you crazy in all the right ways.
* [[Signature Song]]: "1985" or "High School Never Ends".
* [[The Something Song]]: "The Bitch Song".
* [[Subverted Rhyme Every Occasion]]: see [[Last -Second Word Swap]]. There's also another one leading up to the second example in "99 Biker Friends".
{{quote| ''You tell her that you're sorry/Blame it on the beer/Your dad was mean to you/Your friends think you're/An asshole''}}
* [[Tsundere]]: The singer in "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ERoOn2jS1VA Not a Love Song]" [[Bad Liar|totally doesn't want his girl back]].
