A lament is a lament is a lament

Ezekiel 19:14 - This is a lament and is to be used as a lament.

Was there a problem with people using laments for other purposes? Why else would you specifically state what a writing (poetry, in this case) is to be used for? Sometimes things can be used for purposes other than the creator's intended one. A book can be used as a doorstop. But what else would you use a lament for? It's very nature is sad. How could it be used successfully any other way?
