Dumb song lyrics (Read 793 times)

    There are a lot of bad lyrics out there.  The worst I've ever heard was a Queen Latifah song that goes:

     

    "Easy lover is something that I ain't

    Besides, I don't know you from a can of paint"

     

     

    haha i actually think those lyrics are good.

      Yes, not being convinced that Hello, Goodbye was enough stuff, he had to make a sequel song involving the doorbell and whether or not the people ringing it should be allowed in.

       

      Then again, he wrote Band on the Run, which is a pretty good song.  Bonus: Sailor Sam.

        Paul McCartney wrote a lot of stupid lyrics.

          Hey, I love that song.

            I love that song too because it reminds me of a particular time in my life... but there's not much happening in the lyrics of that song.  It does involve a trombone, which is cool.

             

            The same album gave us "Silly Love Songs".  He has taken a lot of crap for that one over the years.

              I like Kid Rock's use of the rare triple negative in "Roll On"

               

              I worked my fingers to the bone
              And there was not a stone I did not leave unturned

                "I've got soul, but i'm not a soldier" by the Killers.

                 

                i've got feet, but i'm not a foetus.

                i've got hips, but i'm not a hippo.

                i've got mice, but i'm not a mouse-trap.

                 

                all a bit barking really, what were they thinking?

                My leg won't stop mooing.

                 

                i think i've got a calf injury.

                  And I was like
                  Baby, baby, baby ooh
                  Like
                  Baby, baby, baby noo
                  Like
                  Baby, baby, baby ohh
                  I thought you'd always be mine, mine

                  u suck ppl LOVE that song!

                  but i like the donkey on your profile pic

                  beat


                  Break on through

                    Five Man Electrical Band...

                     

                    And the sign said anybody caught trespassin' would be shot on sight

                    So I jumped the fence and shouted at the house, "Hey, what gives you the right

                    to put up a fence to keep me out or to keep mother nature in?

                    If God was here, He'd tell you to your face, Man, you're some kinda sinner."

                     

                    Dumb and sanctimonious, too!

                     

                    From Yes  (written by Trevor Rabin)...

                     

                    Here is my heart

                    Waiting for you

                    Here is my soul

                    I eat at chez nous

                     

                    But it rhymes. So does this - another one from America...

                     

                    'Cause the free wind is blowing through your hair

                    And the days surround your daylight there

                    Seasons crying no despair

                    Aligator lizards in the air, in the air

                     

                    Except for "Signs", I like those songs anyway.

                    "Not to touch the Earth, not to see the Sun, nothing left to do but run, run, run..."

                      more daft than dumb - cracking tune tho.

                      I married at the altar 
                      The village idiots daughter 
                      Oh! Lucky me 

                      We honeymooned in Cyprus 
                      That's where she caught the virus 
                      I flew home alone 

                      So I bought myself a chip pan 
                      And I sailed it to the Isle of Man 
                      For a holiday 

                      Struggling in a vortex 
                      With my jacket made of Gore-tex 
                      It fits wonderfully 

                      My leg won't stop mooing.

                          Singer who runs a smidge

                            My sister got lucky, married a yuppie

                            Took him for all he was worth

                            Now she's a swinger dating a singer

                            I can't decide which is worse


                            But not me, baby

                            I've got you to save me

                            Ah, you're so bad

                            Best thing I ever had

                            In a world gone mad

                            You're so bad


                            My sister's ex-husband can't get no lovin'

                            Walks around dog-faced and hurt

                            Now he's got nothin', head in the oven

                            I can't decide which is worse


                            But not me, baby

                            I've got you to save me

                            Ah, you're so bad

                            Best thing I ever had

                            In a world gone mad

                            You're so bad


                            Oh, but not me, baby

                            I've got you to save me

                            Ah, you're so bad

                            Best thing I've ever had

                            In a world gone mad

                            You're so bad


                            Ah, you're so bad

                            Best thing I've ever had

                            In a world gone mad

                            You're so bad


                            And sadly, I know this song by heart, and will probably be singing it all day today now.

                            When it's all said and done, no one remembers how far we have run.  The only thing that matters is how we have loved.

                              Indeed. Allow me to present Exhibit B...

                               

                              Well I Was Talking Last Night
                              Magneto And Titanium Man . . .
                              We Were Talking About You, Babe,
                              Oo --- They Said ---

                              You Were Involved In A Robbery
                              That Was Due To Happen
                              At A Quarter To Three
                              In The Main Street.

                              I Didn't Believe Them
                              Magneto And Titanium Man . . .
                              But When The Crimson Dynamo
                              Finally Assured Me, Well, I Knew

                              You Were Involved In A Robbery
                              That Was Due To Happen
                              At A Quarter To Three
                              In The Main Street.

                              So We Went Out
                              Magneto And Titanium Man . . .
                              And The Crimson Dynamo
                              Came Along For The Ride

                              We Went To Town With The Library
                              And We Swung All Over That
                              Long Tall Bank In The Main Street

                              Well There She Were And To My Despair
                              She's A Five-Star Criminal
                              Breaking The Code

                              Magneto Said "Now The Time Come
                              To Gather Our Forces And Run!!!"
                              Oh No . . . . . .
                              This Can't Be So . . . . . .

                              And Then It Occurred To Me!

                              You Couldn't Be Bad
                              Magneto Was Mad!
                              Titanium Too!
                              And The Crimson Dynamo
                              Just Couldn't Cut It No More
                              You Were The Law . . . . . .

                              Mr MattM


                                Love this song... but when it comes to 'dumb lyrics' it's hard to top...

                                 

                                Madman drummers bummers and Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat
                                In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps his way into his hat
                                With a boulder on my shoulder, feelin' kinda older, I tripped the merry-go-round
                                With this very unpleasing sneezing and wheezing, the calliope crashed to the ground
                                Some all-hot half-shot was headin' for the hot spot, snappin' his fingers, clappin' his hands
                                And some fleshpot mascot was tied into a lover's knot with a whatnot in her hand
                                And now young Scott with a slingshot finally found a tender spot and throws his lover in the sand
                                And some bloodshot forget-me-not whispers, "Daddy's within earshot, save the buckshot, turn up the band"

                                And she was blinded by the light
                                Cut loose like a deuce, another runner in the night
                                Blinded by the light
                                She got down but she never got tight, but she'll make it alright

                                Some brimstone baritone anti-cyclone rolling stone preacher from the East
                                He says, "Dethrone the dictaphone, hit it in its funny bone, that's where they expect it least"
                                And some new-mown chaperone was standin' in the corner all alone, watchin' the young girls dance
                                And some fresh-sown moonstone was messin' with his frozen zone to remind him of the feeling of romance

                                Yeah, he was blinded by the light
                                Cut loose like a deuce, another runner in the night
                                Blinded by the light
                                He got down but he never got tight, but he's gonna make it tonight

                                Some silicone sister with her manager's mister told me I got what it takes
                                She said, "I'll turn you on, sonny, to something strong if you play that song with the funky break"
                                And Go-Cart Mozart was checkin' out the weather chart to see if it was safe to go outside
                                And little Early-Pearly came by in her curly-wurly and asked me if I needed a ride
                                Oh, some hazard from Harvard was skunked on beer, playin' backyard bombardier
                                Yes, and Scotland Yard was trying hard, they sent some dude with a calling card, he said, "Do what you like, but don't do it here"
                                Well, I jumped up, turned around, spit in the air, fell on the ground and asked him which was the way back home
                                He said, "Take a right at the light, keep goin' straight until night, and then, boy, you're on your own"
                                And now in Zanzibar, a shootin' star was ridin' in a side car, hummin' a lunar tune
                                Yes, and the avatar said, "Blow the bar but first remove the cookie jar, we're gonna teach those boys to laugh too soon"
                                And some kidnapped handicap was complainin' that he caught the clap from some mousetrap he bought last night
                                Well, I unsnapped his skull cap and between his ears I saw a gap but figured he'd be all right

                                He was just blinded by the light
                                Cut loose like a deuce, another runner in the night
                                Blinded by the light
                                Mama always told me not to look into the sights of the sun
                                Oh, but Mama, that's where the fun is
                                I was blinded
                                I was blinded
                                I was blinded
