Brain Crank: Timber Lyrics

A BRAIN CRANK TO GET YA BRAIN CRUNK!

"It's going down; I'm yelling 'timber!' / You better move; you better dance!"

The lines quoted have 2 different meanings: 1) the original meaning, where 'timber' is a forestry term for a falling tree and 2) how should I say this delicately? Let's just generally call it a sexual meaning, ok? Which literary term most specifically describes this portion of the lyrics?

A. Pun
B. Allusion
C. Double Entendre
D. Extended Metaphor

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
