Similes and Metaphors in Songs

This was a project I did in my 9th grade English class. Its purpose was to teach students the definition of similes and metaphors. Showing examples in songs that we hear everyday on the radio is a great way to explain similes. FYI: I may have a different view on the interpretations of the similes and metaphors. :D

Songs:
Paperplanes- MIA (intro)
Pokerface - Lady Gaga
Heartless - Kanye West
Circus - Britney Spears
Sugar - Flo-rida
Treat me like a Rose? - Azn dreamers
Just the Girl - The Click 5
______ - Switchfoot
Lonely - Akon
Life your Life - T.I.
