Jon Anderson who—depending on one’s perspective -– would be responsible, or guilty, for writing the lyrics. Here’s the thing: he sings them so effectively (so indelibly — yeah I said it), it doesn’t much matter what he is babbling about. And babble he does. Here is but a brief sampling of his ouevre:

Battleships confide in me and tell me where you are,
Shining, flying, purple wolfhound, show me where you are,

Lost in summer, morning, winter, travel very far,
Lost in musing circumstances, that’s just where you are.

Move forward was my friends only cry,
In deeper to somewhere we could lie.
And rest for the the day with cold in the way,
Were we ever colder on that day, a million miles away?

A seasoned witch could call you from the depths of your disgrace,
And rearrange your liver to the solid mental grace,
And achieve it all with music that came quickly from afar,
Then taste the fruit of man recorded losing all against the hour.

Wish the sun to stand still.
Reaching out to touch our own being
Past a mortal as we
Here we can be
We can be here,
be here now.
Here we can be!

(From “Yours Is No Disgrace”, “South Side of the Sky”, “Close to the Edge” and “Awaken“.)

Rarely, there's a line in a song that ruins an otherwise good song from an otherwise awesome band for me. I have three specific examples:

Placebo - "Bigmouth Strikes Again" - "And now I know how Joan of Arc felt, ooooh, now I know how Joan of Arc felt."

Nine Inch Nails - "The Collector" - "I pick things up. I am a collector." (this one made me mad just writing it)

VAST - "You're Too Good" - "You're a zombie in a dress and I'm your clown"

How about the last line in the Doors' Soft Parade:

"When all else fails, we can whip the horse's eyes and make them sleep
and cry."

Even on controlled substances, there is no way this shit makes sense.

This one from Meade Skelton's Danger is also puzzling:

"I am big fat slathering cock and I like to sit naked in a tub full of baked beans."

On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
And the sky with no clouds
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound



(They later admited they were high when the wrote this song). DUH!

It's supposed to be "In the Garden of Eden", but Iron Butterfly was so high when they came up with the song that it sounded like "Inna Gada Da Vida".

There is that CCR song that says "There's a bathroom on the right." Evidently, the Fogerty brothers suffered from Crohn's Disease and were always in the know as to where the toilets were located in any building they entered. So it became a long running joke among members of the band because John or Tom were always saying "there's a bathroom on the right."

I like that Tool song with the part that goes, "Cheeses, don't chew duck, no gristle, pour some tea and pass the scone."

I love The Beatles, but the lyrics to "Octopus's Garden" make me feel like a retard and I always skip over that track.

And sometimes on Sirius I'll hear Creed's "With Arms Wide Open". Those lyrics are so excessively sentimental it is embarrassing.

ha. I could see that with Octopus's Garden. Alot of the Ringo tracks have that retarded vibe to them. His low was recording You're Sixteen on one of his solo albums. Although I am guessing he was still fairly young at the time, anyone over 18 singing that song comes across as a total child molester.

Maybe they just like to play with words. I read an interview with Mike Patton once, during his Faith No More days - the Angel Dust era - and he was asked if his bizarre lyrics had any meaning. He essentially said no, that he will use whatever combination of words that work best within a rhyming scheme and/or the cadence of a particular piece of music. Case in point, here are the lyrics for Jizzlobber:

They will sum it all up in a sentence
A verdict made by those who know
I'm ready to make a commitment
I'm willing to make love to concrete
Smiles
Bruises
Smiles
Bruises
Bars in the womb
I hide the dirty minutes under my dirty mattress and they are making me itch
My time
Is spilt milk
My skin is a layer of soot
I'm spending my days scrubbing
I'm trying so hard to act like nothing happened (no one left to blame)
I'm trying so hard to find that fresh, clean smell (no one left to blame)
Smiles
Bruises
Smiles
Bruises
Bars in the womb
I hide the dirty minutes under my dirty mattress and they are making me itch
My time
Is spilt milk
Cruel world sleeps above me
Mounting and teasing
I AM WHAT I DO
I AM WHAT I'VE DONE
I'm sorry
Sorry
Sorry
Sorry

Yeah, STP's "Still Remains" gets real stupid, too

"Take a bath, I'll drink the water that you leave. If you should die before me- ask if you can bring a friend."

It's a good song, but that part makes me cringe.

Mike Patton once commented that he writes lyrics based on how the word sounds, not on what the message is supposed to be.

Scott Weiland's lyrics actually got worse when he got off the horse, but there's just something about it that keeps one listening.

Listen to the stuff Mike Patton did with Fantomas. He's not even singing words, it's all just him making noises. I saw them in concert about 5 years ago and it was great.

It takes a special kind of talent to just make noises and have it sound good.

I think it's also because he's from the "As Long As It Sounds Good, Who Cares What I'm Saying" school of thought.

Blinded by the light,

In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps his way into his hat

Bruce Springsteen always claimed that Manfred Mann did say douche but I don't by it. On a related note, the original Springsteen version is actually much better than the more famous remake.

Those are excellent lyrics, maybe you are just too poetically challenged to understand what he's referring to in those songs (which BTW are all great songs).

Maybe you'd be better suited with easier to understand songs like Wooly Bully and Louie Louie?

Who remembers "Patches"?

Down by the river that flows by the coal yards.
Stands wooden houses with shutters torn down
There lives a girl everybody calls Patches
Patches my darling of Old Shanty town

We plan to marry when June brought the summer
I couldn't wait to make Patches my bride
Now I don't see how that ever can happen
My folks say No, and my heart breaks inside

Patches oh what can I do
I swear I'll always love you
But a girl from that place would just bring me disgrace
So my folks won't let me love you

Each night I cry as I think of that shanty
And pretty Patches there watching the door
She dosn't know that I can't come to see her
Patches must think that I love her no more

I hear a neighbor tellin my father
He said a girl name of Patches was found
Floating face down in that dirty old river
That flows by the coal yards in Old Shanty Town

Patches oh what can I do
I swear I'll always love you
It may not be right But I'll join you tonight
Patches I'm coming to you.

In poetry these are called "Symbols": an object or action in a literary work that means more than itself, that stands for something beyond itself

Coupe de ville,the prize- a big fancy something that will make everyone happy, inside a "cracker Jack Box, I presume the box is their life, or their love (or lack there of).

they are not not metaphors, they are"symbols." A metaphor is an association of two completely different objects as being the same thing. A symbol, on the other hand,is an object or action in a literary work that means more than itself, that stands for something beyond itself.

He is not comparing a cracker jack box to a coupe de ville. The great Jim Steinman is narating a convertable car and a cracker jack box to conote something bigger and more important in his and her lives than those physical objects really are.

No one has used what are easily the worst lyrics ever written for a "hit" song...Summer Girls from Light Funky Ones. A bunch of random shit that kinda, sorta rhymes, but not really...

Hip Hop Marmalade spic And span,
Met you one summer and it all began
You're the best girl that I ever did see,
The great Larry Bird Jersey 33
When you take a sip you buzz like a hornet
Billy Shakespeare wrote a whole bunch of sonnets
Call me Willy Whistle cause I can't speak baby
Something in your eyes went and drove me crazy
Now I can't forget you and it makes me mad,
Left one day and never came back
Stayed all summer then went back home,
Macauly Culkin wasn't Home Alone
Fell deep in love,but now we ain't speaking
Michael J Fox was Alex P Keaton
When I met you I said my name was Rich
You look like a girl from Abercrombie and Fitch

[Chorus:]
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,for the summer
I like girls that wear Abercrombie and Fitch,
I'd take her if I had one wish,
But she's been gone since that summer..
Since that summer

Seriously. I've tried to find that song on a cd a few years ago, but couldn't. Somebody told me it had been tied up in some copyright case for a long time. Anybody know about this? Actually, I haven't thought of this in years and, perhaps, it's available online now.

Could be the source of what I'd heard as the copyright suit.

Sorry Foggy, I didn't know of your limitations. You need to find a Government
job. No, I'm not related to Pinky but I'm a big fan of Robert E.'s.

My nomination for the absolute worst lyrics is: Nickelback - Photograph. I hate that song with a passion and don't understand why it was so popular.

+1000. almost all of Nickleback's lyrics suck. I think three of their songs are about the lead singer getting laid.

> understand songs like Wooly Bully and Louie Louie?

Fun Fact: despite speculation that the lyrics to Louie Louie are all about sex, it's actually a sea shanty.

From Wikipedia:

"Louie Louie" is an American rock 'n' roll song written by Richard Berry in 1955. It has become a standard in pop and rock, with hundreds of versions recorded by different artists. The song is written in the style of a Jamaican ballad; and tells, in simple verse-chorus form, the first-person story of a Jamaican sailor returning to the island to see his lady love. The singer brags of his "fine little girl" to the Louie of the title, presumably a bartender.

Check out Toots and The Maytals' version of the song. It's boss.

This information is correct. While researching, I spoke extensively with Jerry (or Gerry, his name has been chronicled using both spellings) Dennon who was there at the time, and produced the original Kingsman recording to go on vinyl, as well as a Paul Revere & the Raiders version roughly a week later.

Someone has a "thang" for Nicole Kidman...

V1 Well I hear that you're doing well, You got the world your spell

A Red Carpet Vixen are you; I'd do anything just to see you smile

To sit and talk with you awhile, I'd stick to you like glue; You're a red- hot mama no denying that, You're not too skinny and you're not too fat, Oh what I wouldn't do for you to love me true, Now what's the use in saying ?, It's not a game i'm playing, Nicole Kidman this is what I ask of you.......

C: Nicole ,will you marry me? I've got personality- You know you won't be sorry; Oh how happy we'd be ,we'd dance beneath the star lit tree; I?ve written out our whole love story; A redhead standing 5'10, I'll be your rooster if you be my hen; I can't deny a feeling this strong; Well I may be insane, but I can't get you out of my brain- Nicole won't you please marry me?

V2: Now I may not be handsome that is true, But you can pretend I've got money too; We'll sail around the world in my imaginary Yacht; Oh how I want you, can't you see?, I can't believe your beauty; Oh God I really think you're hot !; I?ll sing silly love songs to your face; Take you dancing all over the place; If this ain't love I dont know what?s not------- Well I?ve got it bad for you; Hey Mamma, you know its true, come and see just what it is I?ve got-----------

Modulation

C: Nicole, Will You Marry Me I?ve got personality, You know you won?t be sorry; Oh, how happy we?d be, we?d dance around the Star lit tree; I?ve written out our whole love story; A redhead standing 5'10, I'll be your rooster if you be my Hen; I can?t explain how much the feeling is strong; Well I?ve waited so long for you to Get rid of Tom- Nicole Kidman will you marry me? Marry me Nicole Kidman, Nicole Kidman Will you Marry Me- you know you won?t be sorry- Nicole Kidman...... Will You Marry Me?
