Stupid Lyrics in songs
The one that bugs me is a Queen track,
'I want to break free' " I've fallen in love for the first time , this time I know it's for real" If it's the first time how do you know it's for real?? |

I don't want to see a ghost,
It's a sight that I fear most I'd rather have a piece of toast And watch the evening news |

When you fall in love you always think that, so the line is spot on. Bad example.
I dont. |

Heathcliffe, It's me Cathy,
Come home, I'm so cold, Let me in your window. Wuthering Heights, what a stupid song! Isn't that supposed to be the point where her ghost appears at the window? |

you have never been in love
until you've seen the dawn rise behind a home for the blind. |

"Her face is a map of the world, is a map of the world
You can see she's a beautiful girl, she's a beautiful girl." Really? |

Don Mclean's American pie is bizarre and random unless you know it's a biography. Then it becomes a masterpiece in story telling.

Another Queen one from Don't stop me now. "200 degrees that's why they call me Mr Fahrenheit". Why don't they just call you Mr Degrees?. Yes I know that would not rhyme with "travelling at the speed of liiiiiiiiiiiight".

Then there is Procul Harem's "Whiter Shade of Pale" can anyone decipher what it is about We skipped a light fandango, (We danced) Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor. (God, how drunk were we ?) I was feeling kind of seasick, (No wonder, on a cruise liner after all that booze) But the crowd called out for more. (Call for more booze) The room was humming harder, (Volume of drunken revelllry increases) As the ceiling flew away. (Retractable ballroom ceiling opened in fine weather) When we called out for another drink, (Call for more booze) The waiter brought a tray. (More booze brought) And so it was that later, (After consumption of booze) As the miller told his tale, (Dull friend Miller tells boring anecdote) That her face at first just ghostly, (Oh dear, think my g/f might throw up) Turned a whiter shade of pale. (Yes, she's definitely going to throw up) She said there is no reason, (I think there is sweetheart, you've put a lot away) And the truth is plain to see (Everybody can see you're legless) etc. etc. |

The song is about a man coming to terms with his sexuality. Finally realising he's gay, he declares that he's in love with another man, (the first time) and because he's had unsuccessful relationships with women in the past. This time he knows it's for real. Hence the title. I want to break free (from my old life)
The song was written by John Deacon (Who married his childhood sweetheart and had 6 kids and is still married to her) |

"I wish I was a punk rocker
With flowers in my hair" Sandi Thom Sorry dear, but if you'd have turned up at a Pistols gig with flowers in your hair you'd have got the kicking of a lifetime. Read your pop history luv
