- "Every Breath You Take" by The Police is about a guy working for the NSA. He's obsessed with this one girl, so (of course) he spies on her.
- "Chandelier" by Sia is about a drunk person swinging from a chandelier. Literally.
- "Roar" is about Katy Perry turning into a tiger.
- "Back to December" by Taylor Swift is actually about a girl who escaped from prison and killed one of the prison guards. As she looks back on it, she starts to remember the guard's good qualities and regrets killing him ("turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you"), so she decides to go back in time to be with him again ("I go back to December").
- "Umbrella" by Rihanna was actually written to promote Gerard Way and Gabriel Ba's comic book series The Umbrella Academy, hence Gerard Way singing it at one of My Chemical Romance's concerts.
- "Mein Herz Brennt" by Rammstein is about a guy who has really bad heartburn, so he rips his heart out of his chest and gives it to children who are having nightmares (apparently this guy has no idea that heartburn is caused by stomach acid irritating the esophagus, therefore having nothing to do with the heart).
