What's the dumbest song lyric you know?

Curiousgirl · #1 02-07-2002, 03:03 PM

My favourite is by New Order, from Temptation:-

"Oh you've got green eyes'
Oh you've got blue eyes,
Oh you've got grey eyes,
and I've never met anyone
quite like you before"

or

R. Kelly's classic:

"You remind me of my jeep
Something like a sound
Girl you look just like a car
And something like my back account."

Backstreet Boys:

"Does he leave, when you need him the most
Does his friends get all your time..."

GRAMMATICALLY INCORRECT!!!! It drives me nuts! It's not like correcting it would mess up the beat or rhythm of the song...

ugh, like fingernails on a blackboard....

This is all I could think of off the top of my head, God I'm pathetic.

Slam your body down and wind it all around

Have a nice day

Have any of you ever actually listened to some of Nelly's raps? My fave lines come from "#1" ....

"Like Sprint or Motorola, no service out of your range"
"You couldn't hold me if your last name was Hand,
The only way to wear me out is to stitch my name on your pants"

Or something like that! They are just so funny to me, especially since my cell phone provider is Sprint, and I never have a signal!

Taken as a whole, I kind of like the R Kelly lyrics --

You remind me of my jeep, I wanna ride it
Something like my sound, I wanna pump it
Girl you look just like my car, I wanna wax it
And something like my bank account
I wanna spend it, baby

Hey, I wouldn't kick him out if he came over here right now to sing that to me -- his voice is so silky sexy that he can pull off what might otherwise be really goofy.

I mean, who else could pull off: your boo-oo-oo-oo-tay!

I don't think you're ready for this jelly
My body's too bootylicious for you

Is THAT what she's singing? I swear I thought it was "I think you're smelly for this jelly" and I always wondered what the heck she meant!

A dumb lyric that comes to mind is from Wam's "Careless Whisper"...

I'm never gonna dance again, guilty feet have got no rhythm

So you don't confuse them with mountains..."

Okaayyyy....

I KNOW!!! When I heard those lyrics I almost died! I couldn't help but go on about it with my coworkers. It's one of the most retarded songs I've ever heard. The rest of the lyrics are just as retarded!

From "Every Rose Has Its Thorn"...

Though we both lie close together

Umm, how could one person lie together??!!?!

If you really want to read some bad lyrics, get a hold of Dave Barry's Book of Bad Songs. I laughed so hard the first time I read it that I hyperventilated.

LOL!

I didn't know what they were singing until my sister told me.

Oh, then there's that awful boy group LFO who sang that Abercrombie and Fitch song.
"I like girls who wear Abercrombie and Fitch..."
dumb lyrics, bad song
I can't believe it made it onto the music charts!

I'll agree on the Barry thing - it's funny as hell, and he makes more selections to the "worst song" archive in his other books. The funniest thing is when people try to write in and criticize his selections. Seriously funny stuff.
