Inspired by the outstanding level of awful lyrics in the Rock Thread I thought the topic deserved a little corner of its own! biggrin

A few to kick us off:

"Once he built missiles, a nations defence
Now he can't even give birthday presents"

Iron Maiden - Man On The Edge


"Legalistic people suck
Legalism makes me sick
I wonder what makes them tick
I wanna go and puke on it"

MXPX - I'm The Bad Guy

"He was a boy
She was a girl
Can i make it any more obvious
He was a punk
She did ballet
What more can i say"

Avril Lavigne - Skater Boy


"If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends."

Spice Girls - Wannabe

Lol, and if you thought the Maiden one was bad:

"Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again... Oh, no!"

Donna Summer - MacArthur Park

genius!!! ubblol biggrin

Desree's "Life" - the sort of lyrics a computer would write if programmed with a rhyming dictionary.


I'm afraid of the dark,
'specially when I'm in a park
And there's no-one else around,

Ooh, I get the shivers
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

I saw this thing on ITV the other week,

She's playin with her hair, well regularly,
So i reckon i could well be in.

I censored HATE The censored Streets!

I've hated this one for years now.

Jennifer Lopez - Ain't it funny
(the one where she keeps singing "oh no, Oh No, OH NO, OH YEEEEEAH)

Id live a thousand lives
Each one with you right by my side
But yet we find ourselves in a less than perfect circumstance
And so it seems like well never have the chance

I am not a car bear bear bear
I can't walk but I can dance
I can't talk but I can sing
I am a bear bear bear bear

I am a bear bear bear bear
I hate fighting bear bear bear
My rival is fried shrimp
I was probably chocolate in a previous life
I am a bear bear bear bear

Bonjour! Je m'appelle Kuma. Comment ca va?
(Hello! I am Kuma. How are you?)

I am a bear bear bear bear
The winter is cold bear bear bear
In the evening, "Goodnight, Mr. Pillow"
In the morning, "Good morning, Mr. Pillow"

In the evening, "Goodnight, Mr. Pillow"
In the morning, "Good morning, Mr. Pillow"
I am a bear be-be-bear

Does anyone else remember "E-rotic"?

I gotta warn you,
Max, don't have sex with your ex
It will make your life complex,
My Max, baby, take it easy
Max, don't have sex with your ex
It will knock you off your legs
Oh, Max, stay cool and just relax

I love bad lyrics:

As I placed the gun under her chin, her face looked raw and vicious,
Her head it landed in the sink with all the dirty dishes.
Nick Cave: O'Mally's bar.

And from the same:
You know those fish with the swollen lips that clean the ocean floor,
Well, I looked at poor old O'Mally's wife, and that's exactly what I saw.

Never lie down with someone who has more problems than you.

'If you were an Angel

Rialto - 'Untouchable'



I suppose this was meant to sound romantic but actually comes across as misoginistic and possessive...

This guy clearly has issues with abandonment and free will...

As well as having never seen 'Boxing Helena'

I really like a lot of the lyrics given above.
I like lyrics that make sense, i hate lyrics that are just a lot of meaningless phrases thrown together because they sound nice.

best 2 songs for lyrics-

"Women lose weight" by Morcheeba feat. slick rick
"midfielding" by the midfield general

"I don't want another pretty face

"I don't want just anyone to hold

"I don't want my love to go to waste

"I want you and your beautiful soul."



It's from some stupid pop song called "Beautiful Soul".

Around here we call it the "ugly girl" song. It's like someone saying "You know, I don't want to date a pretty girl, so I want you." ubblol





I'm surprised no one has put up the lyrics from Detachable Penis yet. I wish I could remember them.

Have you got a taxi number?"

Infected Mushroom - IM the Supervisor

Forgot that one, incredably cringeworthy :o


A special selection from Papa Roach:

"My name's Coby Dick, Mr. Dick if your nasty
Rock a mic with a voice that's raspy
Cause I'm poetic in my operations
My God given talent is to rock all the nations"

oh the irony... ubblol

"You better do just what I say
And if you don't then you will pay"

talking of Mangoes... though that one's more silly than "worst":

Adam Ant, "Deutsche Girls"

I'll eat a mango
You drink a straight scotch
You know I told you
You could be classy
So why did you have
To be so nasty?

Remember the curls
Of the Deutsche Girls?

HBmmm lets see:

ok so this is translation from hebrew, the song is called Birthday, its by Infected Mushroom Feat. Berry Sakharof:

Today is my birthday, look here theres a new old secret.
To slice the bread, touching something a little bit perfect.
its the middle of the night, i thought maybe its time to sleep.
but something is stuck, deeply in the throat.
it true you know, so gorgeous.
before you escape, come without fear, take me from here.

today is my birthday (or her birthday no one knows)
i thought about almost all of the details.
i ordered u a room, blue skies with stars.

Chorus again, and end!
in hebrew it sounds less dumb :O
but.. its a trance song...
wait, how about skazi`s hit and run? dumbass song for a bad artist..

Hit and run Ami say hit and run...

People get ready right´ya know here we come.
G'yal wine up your wheels and give me some.
Skazi and Big-Bass line side of Ami-San
All over the globe we are ruling in Japan.
Wish you like Fishi in a combination.
Blondie teens in the New York and in a London.
"Alifut Ha-olam" number one Ichiban
(world championship)
"Ten et ze a" I hit and run...
(give me that)

come and say hit and run Ami say hit and run
right on now j' knows that we are freak and one
(Hit and run Ami say hit and run)
skazi and big bass line side of Ami-san
(Hit and run Ami say hit and run)
Jump pa-pa jump papa singly some one
(Hit and run Ami say hit and run)
Right now dis ya choon come...

Going through the tribe all the fire
(Hit and run Ami say hit and run)
We tell lies blow out my head
(Hit and run Ami say hit and run)
Try smells it soltisfaid
(Hit and run Ami say hit and run)
People know why is wrong yeahhh
(Skazi and Big-Bass line side of Ami-San)

i hate to be a party-pooper, but how about you guys show me some lyrics that you've written that're better before you go trashing other people's hard work. afterall, they're the one's making the top 40, not you.

Yup, to show u that people dont care what they hear.

people listen to skazi and actually like it, but people that are really into trance, actually kinda hate him =]

so sure they make the top 40, people dont care what they hear, the follow the pop culture. they dont listen to music for the music, they listen to it to be in with the time...

and btw, i produce my own music (trance) so i think i can speak

and the popular music today is NOT good.

even good bands (in the past) like Iron maiden, today they are commercial as hell, their lyrics suck.

same for metallica, caetano veloso, ALICE IN CHAINS (since layne, the music aint the same) and more.

every song you hear on the radio was written by the record label, and the artist needs to perform it.

and tell me the truth, you think lyrics today are good?

cmon....

Quality of sound has evolved, quality of music went down the drain...

so if you don't enjoy a film in the cinema, do you go and direct your own one before saying you didn't like it?

By the way, about 90% of the bands/people listed here didn't even write their lyrics, they were given to them by big record companies that know that whatever they sell people are very likely going to buy if it's advertised enough (and if new enough sold as 5 different ringtones at the same time). And the people who write them, good or bad, never get any credit in the first place. Just like the people who write the musical arrangements, sing the lines when the pretty front people's voices won't make it or program the computers that do most of the work anyway. So, the actual people making it to the top 40 are usually not much to do with whoever wrote the song.

I've written songs from scratch, guitar/bass/vocals and lyrics, so everything but the drums which unfortunately I can't play (yet?), so I'm allowed to criticise smile

But seriously, just because you can't do something doesn't mean you can't judge if it's bad! And this is all subjective anyway, I think we all know that just because some of us don't like something doesn't mean that others don't. But then, billions and billions of flies eat sh!t, and that doesn't make it tasty.

no, but i don't go on an internet forum and publicly and bash it either.

Someone still worked hard to write them.


and i'm sooooo sick to goddamn death of this "it's commercial and therefore automatically sucks" attitude. it's just another bandwagon, you can blah blah blah popular culture, blah blah blah sheep, all you want. but you're doing the same goddamn thing. how about make up your own mind on individual merit? that'd be something differant.

Disclaimer: the above is aimed at noone in particular, i'm just having a rant, and i know full well it's off topic. just suck it up and don't b!tch at me.

Wait wait wait.

im not saying that commercial music is BAD, im saying its not as good as UN-commercial music.

i listen to lots of commercial artists.

i bashed IM a bit, but they`re in my top 10 favorite artists...

and the pop culture`s music nowadays SUCK.

im talking about pop culture, music like Stuff on the MTV...

and believe me, i really dont think that Skazi cares what i say about him. as you said he is making millions playing in festivals and Big commercial parties, and im making dimes playing at underground parties, so i dont think he really gives a damn wink

Well. Bad lyrics surely can't be mentioned without some of that Fred Durst magic;

i did it all for the nookie (come on) the nookie (come on)
so you can take that cookie and stick it up your (yeah)
stick it up your (yeah) stick it up your (yeah)
stick it up your

smile

In this talk of being nasty about lyrics, I would point out that what we're doing is all a bit self-deprecating, as most of us are putting up songs that we've heard enough to be able to recal the lyrics. Even songs we have quite liked. Now we use hindsight to make a joke of it. And why not eh?
