Career endingly bad IIRC

it simply HAS to be Des'ree's 'Life'

I'm afraid of the dark
Especially when I'm in the park
When there's no one else around
Oh I get the shivers
I don't wanna see a ghost
It's the sight that I fear most
I'd rather have a piece of toast
Watch the evening news
Life, oh life
Oh life, oh life
Life, oh life
Oh life, oh life
I'm a superstitious girl
I'm the worst in the world
Never walk under ladders
I keep a rabbits' tail
I'll take you up on a dare
Anytime, anywhere
Name the place, I'll be there
Bungee jumping, I don't care
Life, oh life
Oh life, oh life
Life, oh life
Oh life, oh life

[b][i]I met her in the museum of paleontology
And I make no bones about it[/b][/i]

Jarvis Cocker. Funny live...

Bryan Adams - Baby When You're Gone

Baby when you're gone, I realize I'm in love
days go on and on, and the nights just seem so long
Even food don't taste that good, drink ain't doing what it should
things just feel so wrong, baby when you're gone ...

WTF.

[i][b]Mac Arthur's Park is melting in the dark
all the sweet green icing flowing down
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 [/b][/i]

We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl,

Shockingly bad

But you work in a shirt with your name tag on it
Drifting apart like a plate tectonic

WTF ? would that be a tectonic plate ?

Crap band, crap lyrics.

And IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII-IIII-IIII
Will always love YOOOOOOOOOOO-OOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUU

Not so much the lyric as the delivery to be fair.

Desrees 'Life'

+1

that bloody 'rather have a piece of toast' lyric is just shocking >-(

There's loads of Deepish Mood ones but here's my fave:

[i]People are people
So why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully[i][/i]

Makes Martin Gore cringe when he hears it!

Bryan Adams - Baby When You're Gone

Baby when you're gone, I realize I'm in love
days go on and on, and the nights just seem so long
Even food don't taste that good, drink ain't doing what it should
things just feel so wrong, baby when you're gone ...

WTF.

I know the fella who wrote that. He got an Ivor Novello IIRC

Ruby ruby ruby RUBY!!

There is a species of wasp that lays it's eggs inside the living body of caterpillars so that when they hatch, the baby wasps will have nourishment as they kill the caterpillar by eating it alive from the inside out...

"All things bright and beautiful, all creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful, the lord god ([i]sic[/i]) made them all..."

Bleurgh.

I'm looking forward to hearing the first hymn ever composed about speaker cables. 🙂

Beetlebum
Because you're young
She's a gun
Now what you've done
Beetlebum
She'll suck your thumb
She'll make you come
Coz, she's your gun
Now what you've done
Beetlebum

I was a big Blur fan in my younger days but for this, they should die. I'd let Alex James off if he agreed to shoot the others.

I wear goggles when you are not here!!;-) Macy Gray

cracking song though

In a jungle of the senses
Tinkerbell and Jack the ripper
Love has no meaning, not where they come from
But we know pleasure is not that simple
Very little fruit is forbidden
Sometimes we wobble, sometimes we're strong
But you know evil is an exact science
Being carefully correctly wrong

Priests and cannibals, prehistoric animals
Everybody happy as the dead come home
Big Black Nemesis, parthenogenesis
No one move a muscle as the dead come home

We feel like Greeks, we feel like Romans
Centaurs and monkeys just cluster round us
We drink elixirs that we refine
from the juices of the dying
We are no monsters, we're moral people
and yet we have the strength to do this
This is the splendour of our achievement
Call in the airstrike with a poison kiss

How bad it gets, you can't imagine
the burning wax, the breath of reptiles
god is not mocked, he knows our business
Karma could take us at any moment
Cover him up.....I think we're finished
You know it's never been so exotic
but I don't know, my dreams are visions
We could still end up with the great big fishes

Priests and cannibals, prehistoric animals
Everybody happy as the dead come home
Big black nemesis, parthenogenesis
No-one move a muscle as the dead come home

Oh, and Annabel Lwin/Bowwowwow singing 'Sexy Eiffel Tower' That must have been sooo embarassing.

Wurzels covering "Ooo Arr just a little bit" by Gina Gee[/url]

worst song evar

"My friend and I, were talking one evening,
Beside some burning wood,"
icicle works-love is a wonderful colour.

Ha!

Pigface - Member
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl,

Great song!

My entry for crap lyrics:

[b]She's faster than most and she lives on the coast[/b]
and
[b]She ain't no witch but I love the way she twitch[/b]

Dreadful: rhyme for rhyme's sake.

Mind you, I don't think that the lyrics of Carouselambra are terribly comprehensible either!

"If my heads been through a windscreen why are all the eyeballs green?"

"I was bitten by a horse and now I'm moving for a divorce"

"what's a cluckin chickin, what's a cluckin chicken mean? Where's a cluckin chicken, where's a clucking chicken been?"

Superb lyrics written by the one and only Shaun Ryder (Angel-The Happy Mondays)

Not a song but a poem.

"The Tay, The Tay, The Silvery Tay. It runs by night and it runs by day".

The unofficial worst ever poet, William McGonagall frae Dundee.

Anything by Spandau Ballet!!!!

"Take your seaside arms and write the next line" WTF!!!!!

I'm as serious as cancer
when I say that rhythm is a dancer

classic!!

It simply HAS to be Des'ree's 'Life'

I'm afraid of the dark
Especially when I'm in the park
When there's no one else around
Oh I get the shivers
I don't wanna see a ghost
It's the sight that I fear most
I'd rather have a piece of toast

first thing I thought of, and this...

She calls out to the man on the street
sir, can you help me?
Its cold and Ive nowhere to sleep,
Is there somewhere you can tell me?

He walks on, doesnt look back
He pretends he cant hear her
Starts to whistle as he crosses the street
Seems embarrassed to be there

Oh think twice, its another day for
You and me in paradise
Oh think twice, its just another day for you,
You and me in paradise

She calls out to the man on the street
He can see shes been crying
Shes got blisters on the soles of her feet
Cant walk but shes trying

Oh think twice...

Oh lord, is there nothing more anybody can do
Oh lord, there must be something you can say

You've painted up your lips and rolled and curled your tinted hair
Ruby are you contemplating going out somewhere?
The shadow on the wall tells me the sun is going down
Oh Ruby, don't take your love to town

It wasn't me that started that old crazy Asian war
But I was proud to go and do my patriotic chore
And yes, it's true that I'm not the man I used to be
Oh Ruby, I still need some company

It's hard to love a man whose legs are bent and paralyzed
And the wants and the needs of a woman your age, Ruby, I realize
But it won't be long, I've heard them say until I'm not around
Oh Ruby, don?t take your love to town

She's leaving now 'cause I just heard the slamming of the door
The way I know I?ve heard it slam a hundred times before
And if I could move, I'd get my gun and put her in the ground
Oh Ruby, don't take your love to town
Oh Ruby, for God?s sake turn around

he sings it all with such genuine feeling
SHOCKING
RUBY - Keemy Rogers

vinnyeh - that'll be Shriekback. I was thinking of that song too, mainly for the use of parthenogenesis.

The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do whats right
Sure as kilimanjaro rises like olympus above the serengeti
I seek to cure whats deep inside, frightened of this thing that Ive become

This one always cracks me up. Love the way serengeti is shoe-horned in there even though it doesn't really fit.

Anything by Carcass

I love Ruby by Kenny Rogers, a real guilty pleasure 😀

Would you credit it?
Town bradford existssss
Computers infest the hotels - get some! get some!
Cops can't catch criminals
What the hell, they talk to god
We're just sssss
Hit the north

Can't get a break on those estates, but what the heck
All the hoots
All the lights so pretty
Hit the north
Striker! mitherer! get outta here!
Hit the north

The government say, the government says
All estate agents alive yell down nights in hysterical breath
Those big big big wide streets
Those useless mps
Hit the north
Savagessss
Manacled to the city, manacled to the city
Hit the north

Now this is the truth, wrong influence from french corpse
Hit the north
My cat says ow!

In the back third eye psyche, the reflected mirror of delirium,
Eastender and victorian lager, the induced call, mysterious,
Comes forth - hit the north

Genius.

Meatloaf - [b]And the angels had guitars even before they had wings[/b] 😕
Adam And The Ants - [b]Da diddley qa qa da diddley qa qa, Da diddley qa qa da diddley qa qa[/b]???

Can't believe no ones mentioned Shakira:
"lucky that my breasts are small and humble, so you don't confuse them with mountains."

No arguing with that.....

One for "Yes" fans:

In ancient times...
Hundreds of years before the dawn of history
Lived a strange race of people... the Druids

No one knows who they were or what they were doing
But their legacy remains
Hewn into the living rock... Of Stonehenge

Stonehenge! Where the demons dwell
Where the banshees live and they do live well
Stonehenge! Where a man's a man
And the children dance to the Pipes of Pan

Hey!

Stonehenge! 'Tis a magic place
Where the moon doth rise with a dragon's face
Stonehenge! Where the virgins lie
And the prayers of devils fill the midnight sky

And you my love, won't you take my hand?
We'll go back in time to that mystic land
Where the dew drops cry and the cats meow
I will take you there, I will show you how

Oh!

And oh how they danced
The little children of Stonehenge
Beneath the haunted moon
For fear that daybreak might come too soon

And where are they now?
The little children of Stonehenge
And what would they say to us?
If we were here... tonight

We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year running over the same old ground
What have we found: the same old fears.

It's a perfect image of their inescapable relationship. A great lyric in the context of the song IMO. Sorry!

"Only time will tell if we stand the test of time."

Sage like wisdom, from Van Halen there.

"I've got soul, but I'm not a soldier."

WTF is that about.

Prefer Bill Bailey's version:

"I've got Ham, but I'm not a Hamster"

Dream Gerrard by Traffic

Beautiful song but wtf?!

And it's a fact, you are cold, they react, dream Gerrard
Hippos don't wear hats, lobsters shriek if provoked
On long blue ribbons
That he may see while he sleeps
Monsieur Old Neddy, he wears spectacles in bed
That he may see dreams more clearly
The night, it will be black, and white raven croaking
I am thirsty, die, they won't let it be
They think it should be done with reality
I scream from a skull. Fritz, bring your wigwam

"I've got toast, but I'm not a toaster"

“I'm like a bowl of gumbo,
You ain't hotter than this,
I'm what they play in the clubo.”

Is it too easy to pick on Maria Carrie(?)

or how about anybody who rhymes 'away' with 'day'; 'fly' with 'high' eg Lenny Kravitz:

I wish that I could fly
Into the sky
So very high
Just like a dragonfly

Girls and Boys by Blur, my word.

Carter USM had endless crap lyrics, but somehow they get away with it:

"We've got 50 tons of plastic, we're going to laminate your house"

Ag-a-doo-doo-doo, push pineapple, shake the tree
Aga-doo-doo-doo, push pineapple, grind coffee
To the left, to the right, jump up and down and to the knees
Come and dance every night, sing with a hula melody

ALL - Frog
I've got a frog in my pocket. It's not a big frog.
I like it anyway. One time I tried to hock it.
You can't get much for that kind of frog these days.
But you can have fun with an amphibian.
Just put him back when you're done, back in your pocket,
pocket or else he'll jump away.
I know it's only a frog. It's not a cat or a dog.
It's not a prize winning hog, but don't you knock it, knock it.
Just the other day I heard this old man say,
"I had a frog just like that when I was much, much younger.
One day I let ol' Oscar get away.
One night he lost himself in the fog.
And I raised Oscar from a polywog.
I swear to god I do miss that frog.
I had a frog like that when I was much, much younger.
One day I let ol' Oscar get away.
The other night we had a similar fog.
I thought I saw him in a hollow log.
I swear to god I do miss that frog."

and after all, youre my wonderwall

wtf is a wonderwall???

Movin to the country,
Gonna eat a lot of peaches
Movin to the country,
Gonna eat me a lot of peaches
Movin to the country,
Gonna eat a lot of peaches
Movin to the country,
Gonna eat a lot of peaches

Peaches come from a can,
They were put there by a man
In a factory downtown
If I had my little way,
Id eat peaches every day
Sun-soakin bulges in the shade

Take a little naps where the roots all twist
Squished a rotten peach in my fist
And dreamed about you, woman,
I poked my finger down inside
Make a little room for it to hide
Natures candy in my hand or can or a pie

Millions of peaches, peaches for me
Millions of peaches, peaches for free

Look out!

🙂

[b]YOU'RE[/b] so vain, [b]YOU[/b] probably think this song is about [b]YOU[/b]

Well yes, he would. Probably because it clearly is...

But Terrahawk got in first with 'Toast'...
