None of those are as bad as some of Shayne Ward's which are hilarious, I always think these two in particular must have been written by a drunk person or something:
"I wanna make you feel like you are heaven on earth
I'm gonna saint your mother just for giving you birth"
"There was something sexy 'bout your voice
Everything you say makes a beautiful noise."
You beat me to it, lol! "If it's ok with you" also features "I wanna keep your toothbrush in my appartment" :eek:
It isn't on mine. The single version was changed to slap but on the album it's stab you or kiss you, unless later printings had the single version put on instead.
For me, much as I think its one of the best pop rock albums of the last decade, Hot Fuss by the killers is full of cringe worthy "did he really just say that" moments.
For example:
Glamorous Indie Rock and and Roll could basically be posted in full:
"Indie rock'n'roll is what I want
It's in my soul, it's what I need
Indie rock'n'roll, it's time"
It actually phyically makes me cringe. I can't fully explain why, its the sort of socially uncomfortable feeling you get from Gareth in the office.
"A coffee shop with a cause, then I'll freak you out"
Right Brandon...
Believe Me Natalie is a bit odd too
Basically anything by Ke$ha
"Brush my teeth/With a bottle of Jack"
Far East Movement
"When we drink we do it right/Gettin' slizzard... Sober girls around me they be acting like they drunk... Now I'm feelin' so fly like a G6" although god help me it's a catchy tune lol
The entirety of Puff Daddy's (or whatever he calls himself these days) 'I'll Be Missing You'. Prime example - 'give anything to hear half your breath, I know you're still living your life after death'. Absolute kindergarten tommyrot, and synonymous with an embarrassing episode in mass hysterical sentimentality.

I remember this being played ad nauseum when it came out.
Thankfully, the lyrics have since been recognised for their awfulness. There's even an article on the Beep's website about it from 2007: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6626239.stm
I still can't believe the track got so much play with the "ghost/toast" line...definitely one of the most cringeworthy lyrics in music history.
shame because the production is awesome
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti
It doesn't even scan properly!
If he has been to Scunthorpe, it won't ruin the lyrics because I've heard of another place that rhymes with Scunthorpe.
You beat me to it, lol!
Skylark-lark-lark-lark

Let me guess, they heard some French and thought they'd try and use it and sound cool.
Great song though. :cool: But add to that one ( from the Black Eyed peas):
"My humps my humps my hump, my lovely lady lumps.
Check it out." * :eek:
* sorry if the lyrics there a bit wrong, I'm 33 so I'm not exactly down and 'with it' with the yoof.
Heres a little story i gotta tell
Bout this boy i know so well
...
Thought he was the one for me
Other boys I could not see
Rihanna - Stupid In Love
So I made it, even though Katie
Told me that this would be nothing but a waste of time
And she was right
Its a shame cos Rated R is such an awesome album. The lyrics let it down.
"This beat is hot this beat is sick, I wanna take a ride on your disco stick" - Gaga. Just embarrassing.
There's probably loads but a lot of songs have **** lyrics. It's nothing new
The lyric is "slap" on the album.
It isn't on mine. The single version was changed to slap but on the album it's stab you or kiss you, unless later printings had the single version put on instead.
"A coffee shop with a cause, then I'll freak you out"
Right Brandon...
Believe Me Natalie is a bit odd too
That reminds me of this one from Sister I'm a Poet by Morrissey:
"A plastic bag stranded at the lights
This once was me ..."
from Lady obnoxious
Its Lets have some fun, this beat is sick. I wanna take a ride on your disco stick.
And i disagree its a great lyric.
here here
Fight For This Love, 3 Words, Parachute, Promise This and The Flood are all brutal lyrically.:mad:
Other Pop artists have the occaisional bad lyric, but all of her songs have at least one major clanger.:rolleyes:
"Brush my teeth/With a bottle of Jack"
Far East Movement
"When we drink we do it right/Gettin' slizzard... Sober girls around me they be acting like they drunk... Now I'm feelin' so fly like a G6" although god help me it's a catchy tune lol
It's "cause I'm bluffin' with my muffin".
Tinie Tempah is an awful lyricist.
