On one hand, song writing (particularly composing and arranging, rather than just lyrics) is pretty difficult actually, any pop girl who does it and can actually make good music/a hit deserves respect.
OTOH, yeah, some people act like writing any song is some automatic trump card, when there are some pop girls (won't name names
![eli's_rhythm](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/korn0818/ATRL_Smilies_All/atrlers/eli_zps0932edf9.gif)
) who have some barely intelligible lyrics right now, and I'm not sure if they wrote the entirety of the song, or again, just the lyrics.
