Nathan Pyle, a New York City-based artist, illustrated a comical series of images that are in homage to popular song lyrics.
Though some songs are very popular and can be heard around the world, they often are nonsensical. If one truly listens to the lyrics and tries to depict the meanings behind them, they quite often don't make any sense. Though the lyrics probably mean something to the artist, the lyrics are actually quite wacky and comical when taken literally.
Pyle depicted them literally in his series and some funny lyrics he uses include the lyrics “clap along if you feel like a room without a roof” from Happy by Pharrell Williams and “Are we human or are we dancer?” by The Killers.
