1. I chose “Firework” by Katy Perry
Chris’ E.L.A. PROJECT
I chose “Firework” by Katy Perry

2. Lyrics video (“Firework”)

3. LYRICS Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?

4. Simile
This is an example of simile because it’s comparing you to a plastic bag using
LIKE OR AS.

5. Lyrics Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
like a house of cards, one blow from caving in?
Do you ever feel already buried deep six feet under?
Screams but no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there’s still a chance for you

6. LYRICS ‘Cause there’s a spark in you?
You just gotta ignite and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July

7. LYRICS ‘Cause, baby, you’re a firework
Come on show ‘em what you’re worth

8. METAPHOR
This (baby, you’re a firework) is an example of metaphor because you’re being compared to a firework without like or as, because in metaphor ya’ can’t use like or as, nuh-uhn. If so that would be simile, uh-huh.

9. LYRICS(still)
Make ‘em go, “Aah, aah, aah”

10. ONOMATOPOEIA
“Aah, aah, aah” is an example of onomatopoeia because it’s a word sound in comparison to; MOO, SPLASH, MEOW, or KA-BLAMMEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

11. LYRICS(continued)
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

12. ASSONANCE
Assonance is the repeat of vowel sounds in words and the vowels are: “A”, “E,”I”, “O”, “U”, and sometimes “Y”. This is assonance because she is repeating the “Y” sound.

13. LYRICS(still continued)
Baby, you’re a firework Come on, let your colours burst Make ‘em go, “Aah, aah, aah” You’re gonna leave ‘em all in awe, awe, awe

14. ALLITERATION
Alliteration is similar to assonance except this is consonant sounds the consonants are:”B”, “C”, “D”, “F”, “G”, “H”, “J”, “K”, “L”, “M”, “N”, “P”, “Q”, “R”, “S”, “T”, “V”, “W”, “X”, and “Z”. It is repeating the “W” sound.

15. LYRICS(even more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
You don’t have to feel like a wasted space

16. LYRICS(still continued even more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
You’re original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow

17. LYRICS
Maybe a reason why all the doors are closed

18. LYRICS
So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road

19. LYRICS Like a lightning bolt, your heart will glow
And when it’s time you’ll know
You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July
‘Cause, baby, you’re a firework
Come on, show ‘em what you’re worth

20. LYRICS Make ‘em go, “Aah, aah, aah” As you shoot across the sky-y-y
Baby, you’re a firework
Come on, let your colours burst
You’re gonna leave ‘em all in awe, awe, awe

21. LYRICS
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

22. LYRIX It’s always been inside of you, you, you
And now it’s time to let it through-ough-ough
‘Cause, baby, you’re a firework
Come on, show ‘em what you’re worth
Make ‘em go, “Aah, aah, aah”
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

23. LYRIX Baby, you’re a firework Come on, let your colours burst
Make ‘em go “Aah, aah, aah”
You’re gonna leave ‘em all in awe, awe, awe
Boom, boom, boom, Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
