Song Lyrics: Don't Hold It That Way

By Francisco Rangel filed Monday, June 28 3:00 AM ET

To the tune of "I Want It That Way" by the Backstreet Boys

Got bad reception
No misconception
But Jobs will just say,
"Don't hold it that way."

This flaw comes right from the start
Design's not so smart
But you say
"Don't hold it that way."

Tell me why
This phone my hand can't embrace?
Gotta buy
Some sort of latex phone case
Are you high?
Sounds very stupid when you say
"Don't hold it that way."

I'm filled with ire
My hands perspire
Makes my bars all decay
I won't hold it that way.

Tell me why
You put that metal band there?
At the top
Would it have clashed with long hair?
Please just stop
I'm sick and tired of when you say
"Don't hold it that way."

If I should drop it I cannot afford
To go buy a replacement soon, no
So I need a firm grip
But you're telling me
To hold it all pansily

"We just require
you hold it higher,"
You say
You say, you say, you say...

Don't wanna here you say
"These rumors are all so fake."
Ain't nothin' but your mistake
(Don't wanna hear you say)
I never wanna hear you say
"Don't hold it that way"

Tell me why
It's like I'm in a dead zone
Tell you where
You can go stick your damn phone
Gonna switch
Droid does it better anyway
(I'll choose how I will hold it)
I'll hold it my way
