The data have been analyzed using the theory of O’ Grady and Dobrovolsky. The forms and functions of the inflectional affixes that have been found in the lyrics of Bruno Mars’ album Doo-Wops & Hooligans are {-s/-es} which function as plural, {’s} which functions as possessive, {-s/-es} which function as 3rd person singular, {-ing} which functions as progressive, {-ed} which functions as past tense, {-ed/-en} which function as past participle, and {-er} which functions as comparative. There is no allomorph /-iz/ found in plural {-es} and 3rd person singular {-es}, there is also no allomorph /-t/ and /-id/ in past participle {-ed} that found in the lyrics of Bruno Mars’ album Doo-Wops & Hooligans. Superlative {-est} is not found on this album. Progressive {-ing}, past participle {-en}, and comparative {-er} are not divided into several allomorph because they’re only have one allomorph, namely /-iÅ‹/, /-É™n/, and /É™r/. Possessive {’s} does not produce allomorph /-z/ when nouns end with allomorph /s/.
