Really bad lyrics
Apr. 13th, 2007 08:21 amTop Five on Friday @ The Music Memoirs
Top five cheesiest and / or worst lyrics ever written?
1. "It takes a little time sometimes to get the Titanic turned back around." - Takes A Little Time (Amy Grant)
I have always hated this song, but particularly this morbid, stupid line.
2. "And there were plants, and birds, and rocks and things." - A Horse With No Name (America)
It's hell when you run out of nouns to describe a desert, innit? Oh and add "...and there ain't no one for to give you no pain." Yeah, I'll chalk this one up to that desert heat.
3. "Coast to coast, L.A. to Chicago." - Smooth Operator (Sade)
Love Sade but she should have used a map.
4. "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!" - MacArthur Park (Richard Harris)
Just the epitome of suck. See? I said this will consistently make any "bad" list I do. *nods*
5. "New Kids On The Block had a bunch of hits, Chinese food makes me sick. And I think it's fly when girls stop by for the summer." - Summer Girls (LFO) And this: "Fell deep in love, but now we ain't speakin'. Michael J Fox was Alex P. Keaton." Gotta give 'em props for rhyming speakin' with Alex P. Keaton. Now that's creativity!
Runners up:
"You're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful it's true." - You're Beautiful (James Blunt)
OMG team that stupid line with that annoying voice and well... *cringe*
"He was a boy, she was a girl. Can I make it any more obvious?" - Sk8ter Boi (Avril Lavigne)
Um, no. Can you be a bit more descriptive? I don't get it.
"I love you like a fat kid loves cake." - 21 Questions (50 Cent)
Ahahahahahahahahahahaha!!! Oh that's a good one.
"My humps, my humps, my lovely lady lumps!" - My Humps (Black Eyed Peas)
...
There you have it. Gotta get to work.
