Are there any songs that have stupid lyrics in them? I have three

1.I Knew I Loved You-Savage Garden

Lyric-" I knew I loved you before I met you" Not only is this lyric stupid, it is also disturbing. :rolleyes: :eek:

2.Let It Burn- Usher

Lyric-"When I'm hurting, I ain't happy." Duh. No brainer. :rolleyes:

3.Horse With No Name-America

Lyric-"The heat was hot." No the heat should have been cold. :rolleyes:

I'm not sure these are senseless, but the lyrics are sure silly.




Want a horse, I want sheep,
I want to get me a good night's sleep,
Livin' in a home
In the heart of the country.

"Heart of the Country" - Paul McCartney

So I sat in the attic, a piano up my nose,
and the wind played a dreadful cantata. (cantata, cantata)
Sore was I from a crack of an enemy's hose
And the horrible sound of tomato. (tomato, tomato)
"Monkberry Moon Delight"- Paul McCartney



I walking down the street the other day
Who did I meet
I met a friend of mine and he did say
Man I can smell your feet a mile away
"Smile Away"- Paul McCartney





Well I saw the thing comin' out of the sky
It had the one long horn, one big eye.
I commenced to shakin' and I said "ooh-eee"
It looks like a purple people eater to me.
Well he came down to earth and lit in a tree
I said Mr. Purple People Eater don't eat me
I heard him say in a voice so gruff
I wouldn't eat you cuz you're so tough

I said Mr. Purple People Eater, what's your line
He said it's eatin' purple people and it sure is fine
But that's not the reason that I came to land
I wanna get a job in a rock and roll band

It was a one-eyed, one-horned flyin' purple people eater
one-eyed, one-horned flyin' purple people eater
one-eyed, one-horned flyin' purple people eater
What a sight to see

It was a one-eyed, one-horned flyin' purple people eater
one-eyed, one-horned flyin' purple people eater
one-eyed, one-horned flyin' purple people eater
Sure looks strange to me.

"Purple People Eater"- Big Bopper

"Spring was never waiting for us, girl / It ran one step ahead / As we followed in the dance." Huh?

Crowded House's "Don't Dream it's Over"

There is freedom within, there is freedom without
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup

---

Now I'm towing my car, there's a hole in the roof
My possessions are causing me suspicion but there's no proof



Never made sense to me.

Cuz I can ford a red eed

On a ree land.
Find a ree land.

You sink a my swan.
Rolly a get a worst in.
Maybe minus way far central

Milk maid dud bean.
Master a load a head.
Pill pop a dope a well run

U from Paula Abdul. PA in one part says, 'Hey baby. Watch my dance(Dancy instrumental plays music plays for a short while). How can we "watch" her dance if there is no video to the song?:rolleyes: It would have made more sense to have a video to U, and have her dancing her famous choreograghed dancing moves for that "Watch me dance" part.:rolleyes:
