As much as I love 'em, the first couple of lines in REM's "Losing My Religion" always have me in first of laughter:
Life is bigger It's bigger than you, And you are not me. ![]() I've tried my hardest to get my head round those lyrics, but they're just plain silly, IMHO. |

Life is a minestrone Served up with parmesan cheese Death is a cold Lasagne Suspended in deep freeze Love is a fire of flaming brandy Upon a crepe suzette Let's get this romance cooking, honey But let us not forget And it is said that Godley, Creme Stewart & Gouldman were good song writers. |

the '80s goth band) called Books On The BonfireAction Man's gone to the cleaners Barbie is working the streets they took her in with a handful of sweets

I think I have found the winner - for a pure and absolute rendition of pretentious teenaged angst:
Hello there, the angel from my nightmare, the shadow in the background of the morgue. The unsuspecting victim, of darkness in the valley, we can live like Jack and Sally if we want, where you can always find me. We'll have Halloween on Christmas. And in the night we'll wish this never ends, we'll wish this never ends... (miss you miss you) (miss you miss you) Where are you, and i'm so sorry, I cannot sleep i cannot dream tonight! I need somebody and always, This sick strange darkness comes creeping on so haunting everytime. And as i stared i counted, the webs from all the spiders, catching fiends and eating their in sides. Like indecision to call you, and hear your voice of treason, Will you come home and stop this pain tonight? Stop this pain tonight. Dont waste your time on me you're already the voice in side my head! (miss you miss you) Dont waste your time on me you're already the voice in side my head! (miss you miss you) Dont waste your time on me you're already the voice in side my head! (miss you miss you) Dont waste your time on me you're already the voice in side my head! (miss you miss you) Dont waste your time on me you're already the voice in side my head! (miss you miss you) Dont waste your time on me you're already the voice in side my head! (miss you miss you) (miss you miss you) (miss you miss you) (miss you miss you) (miss you miss you) I particularly like the enboldened bit, the fact that they ran out of prentious ideas so repeated to fade and especially that when they sang the chorus they turned the word "head" into "yead". Fabulous. Watch out for fiends-insides eating spiders, people. |

Air Hostess contains the lines: "The cabin pressure's rising, My Coke has got no ice in." And if that wasn't enough, the same song also has: "I messed my pants, When we flew over France." Genius. |

Something that has always irritated me is the line (repeated a number of times throughout the song) in Savage Garden's Affirmation:
"I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side." No more greener? It doesn't make any grammatical sense. |

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! GOOGLE!!!!! and back to stupid lyrics could someone explain these to me?? ![]() Como se llama, bonita, mi casa, su casa Shakira, Shakira Oh baby when you talk like that You make a woman go mad So be wise and keep on Reading the signs of my body <snipped> I never really knew that she could dance like this She makes a man want to speak Spanish Como se llama, bonita, mi casa, su casa Shakira, Shakira Oh baby when you talk like that You make a woman go mad So be wise and keep on Reading the signs of my body And I'm on tonight You know my hips don't lie And I am starting to feel you boy Come on lets go, real slow Don't you see baby asi es perfecto Oh I know I am on tonight my hips don't lie And I am starting to feel it's right All the attraction, the tension Don't you see baby, this is perfection Shakira, Shakira Oh boy, I can see your body moving Half animal, half man I don't, don't really know what I'm doing But you seem to have a plan My will and self restraint Have come to fail now, fail now See, I am doing what I can, but I can't so you know That's a bit too hard to explain Baila en la calle de noche Baila en la calle de día Baila en la calle de noche Baila en la calle de día I never really knew that she could dance like this She makes a man want to speak Spanish Como se llama, bonita, mi casa, su casa Shakira, Shakira Oh baby when you talk like that You know you got me hypnotized So be wise and keep on Reading the signs of my body Senorita, feel the conga, let me see you move like you come from Colombia Mira en Barranquilla se baila así, say it! Mira en Barranquilla se baila así Yeah She's so sexy every man's fantasy a refugee like me back with the Fugees from a 3rd world country I go back like when 'pac carried crates for Humpty Humpty I need a whole club dizzy Why the CIA wanna watch us? Colombians and Haitians I ain't guilty, it's a musical transaction No more do we snatch ropes Refugees run the seas 'cause we own our own boats I'm on tonight, my hips don't lie And I'm starting to feel you boy Come on let's go, real slow Baby, like this is perfecto Oh, you know I am on tonight and my hips don't lie And I am starting to feel it's right The attraction, the tension Baby, like this is perfection No fighting No fighting eh??

My personal favourite - 'wave your hands in the air like you just don't care'. Not a particularly stupid sentence, just chuffin' annoying!
Oh and that thong song - 'let me see that tho-o-ong, baby. That thong th thong thong thong'. Pants indeed |

Two classics spring to mind. Firstly from the London Boys 'London Nights'-
Give a little love-I walk throught the city, Give a little love-There's food in the air Des'ree 'What's your sign?'...the whole song is a disaster- http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/What's-Your-Sign-lyrics-Des'ree/624C482E8A6A25CE48256AE0001D0DAD Last edited by Poodledoodledoo : 04-10-2006 at 15:16. |

'Snake' by R. Kelly. It breaks in the middle, where he sings the line: 'Like two gorillas in the jungle making love'. Uggh, it's NOT sexy and it's not a thought I'd like to imagine.
'Wherever Whenever' by Shakira. Love the song but: 'Lucky that my breasts are small and humble so you don't confuse them with mountains'...how daft! |
