I apologize in advance, but I've always thought of Madonna as the ultimate one-hit wonder. After "Like a Virgin," it was all downhill.

Never understood her appeal.

And don't forget the best/worst part: she rhymes New York with "dork." I love it, too. :-)

Yeah, the verses are a scream. They get funnier as they go, too. The first time I listened to the song, I laughed out loud.

Ever since I heard this song a week ago, I haven't been able to stop asking myself how and why this song was given the green light. I can only rationalize that it was released as some sort of ironic jab at the music industry.

I somehow doubt that anyone ever is allowed to say no to Madonna. If someone did, it would get around that he was the one who'd kept a song off her new album, and a pack of fans would maul him.

It's pretty obvious, from listening to it, that the silliness is intentional. I don't think that excuses everything, though; and I like your explanation better, since it gives everything a nice subtext.
