No songs are written
with my name, my face in mind;
no melody mine.
Sharona, Sherry,
Donna, and Paula as well
have been someone’s muse.
I’m just a songless
woman in a song-filled world;
I could change my name.

It’s a catchy tune, but I’ve no idea what they’re singing besides the occasional “Leslie!” But hey, it’s my name!

It would still be fun to know. And if it’s negative I’ll just go into a deep depression. Surely as upbeat as the tune is it must be positive. Well, maybe. One can never tell with alt rock. They might be saying, “my life was happy and wonderful, and then here came Leslie and ruined it all.”

But I want my OWN song. The Name Game song can be about any old Tom, Dick, or Harrieta.
