If you spend as much time on sports blogs as I do, your first thought upon hearing Lorde’s hit song ‘Royals’ was probably, “great, some a-hole’s going to do a parody of this about the Kansas City Royals.” The joke got even less funny when it came out that Lorde had written the song about a picture of George Brett in National Geographic but is a musical teen hipster and had no idea who he was or what he did. He just had a shirt that said ROYALS across the front.
Predictably, almost inevitably, someone still ran with that joke and now here’s a Kansas City Royals-themed parody of Lorde’s ‘Royals.’ Enjoy viral success or whatever. Maybe next this guy can record a song from the perspective of Yankees and Red Sox stars of the last 10 years about how they’re “on each other’s teams.”
