Our town was designed to feel a little "off". It is an organized marching beat, specifically not made to feel lively or enjoyable, though the use of percussion, when opposed to strings and piano that is used in the more pleasant songs.

The reason for this is to point out in a subtle manner that Starlight's town isn't all it's advertised to be, and the song highlights the lack of passion and enthusiasm present in the song, a nod to creativity, and independence.

It is designed not to be likable, in the same way that many of the villains are not designed to be likable, each song, like each villain, serves a purpose.
