Had two songs pop up today and it got me thinking about some of the dumbest lyrics in 'real' songs (ie: not a parody or something).

First is this gem that, I think, DCG posted a while back somehwere


"my bootyhole is brown"






This came on the radio on the way home from work



"And the sign says "Anybody caught trespassing will be shot on sight"
So I jumped the fence and I yelled at the house, Hey! What gives you the right
To put up a fence And keep me out"....uhhh his private property? Which you just trespassed onto.
Really, the whole song is a whiny dude upset that people do things he doesnt like







What yall got, what's some of the dumbest lyrics yall heard?
 
This is one of my favorite songs of all time. None of it makes a lick of sense and I absolutely love that about it.

Signs was originally by the 5 man electric band in the early 70’s. So it was hippy dippy imagine there’s no countries crap.

Tesla did a great job with that song and a lot of people think they were the original artists. But, no, it was The Five Man Electrical Band that did it in 1970.



As far as dumb lyrics go, you're going to have to come up with something to beat MacArthur Park.

*Note - This is gibberish in Spanish, too.


Note: Stan Rogers' song "The Idiot" is a wonderful song, about the desire to make something of yourself, having pride in yourself, rather than taking a handout.
[Verse 1]
I often take these night shift walks
When the foreman’s not around
I turn my back on the cooling stacks
And make for open ground
Far out beyond the tank-farm fence
Where the gas flare makes no sound
I forget the stink and I always think
Back to that Eastern town

[Verse 2]
I remember back six years ago
This western life I chose
And every day the news would say
Some factory’s going to close
Well, I could have stayed to take the dole
But I’m not one of those

[Refrain]
I take nothing free, and that makes me
An idiot, I suppose

[Verse 3]
So I bid farewell to the Eastern town
I never more will see
But work I must so I eat this dust
And breathe refinery
Oh I miss the green and the woods and streams
And I don’t like cowboy clothes

[Refrain]
But I like being free, and that makes me
An idiot, I suppose

[Verse 4]
So come all you fine young fellows
Who’ve been beaten to the ground
This western life’s no paradise
But it’s better than lying down
Oh the streets aren’t clean, and there’s nothing green
And the hills are dirty brown
But the government dole will rot your soul
Back there in your home town

[Verse 5]
So bid farewell to the Eastern town
You never more will see
There’s self-respect and a steady cheque
In this refinery
You will miss the green and the woods and streams
And the dust will fill your nose

[Refrain]
But you’ll be free, and just like me
An idiot, I suppose
================================================
No, the problem is this commie retard that added a new stanza:
These are the words I tell myself
When I miss my own hometown
I tell myself that I'm doing right
by turning that welfare down
But now I see for you and me
That I want those woods and streams
For I owe my life to this workers strife
Why can't I just be free
Click to expand...

And the creme de la creme of stupid:

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us, only sky
Imagine all the people
Livin' for today
Ah
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too
Imagine all the people
Livin' life in peace
You
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
You
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

Any song that Green Day sings has the dumbest lyrics. Those idiots and Nickelback.

Nickelback is actually a pretty great band.
A comedian made a joke about Nickelback being bad, and it went viral as a commercial for a Comedy Central show. Became trendy to hate on them.




I don't care about trends. They're actually pretty great. :p

Any song that can daftly rhyme “man” with “can”, and isn’t found in a children’s book of nursery rhymes deserves consideration. But then we’ve also got them screaming “she’s lump” for half of another song.

Sorry for subjecting y’all to these, but at least we can close the thread now.

I’ll try not to hold that against you since I haven’t listened to the entire album. Couldn’t get past the singles to listen to more of them.

Don’t misunderstand, none of them are any saner. But for me the insanity is what makes them so entertaining.

Check out feather pluckin which I posted way upstream.

And little blue dune buggy. Lol.
 
Let's go back to the 70's and those unforgettable, cerebral songs by America. I'll lead off with "Tin Man". I'm certain acid was involved.

"But Oz never did give nothing to the Tin Man
That he didn't, didn't already have
And 'cause never was the reason for the evening
Or the tropic of Sir Galahad

So please believe in me
When I say I'm spinning 'round, 'round, 'round, 'round
Smoke glass stained bright colors
Image going down, down, down, down
Soapsud green like bubbles"

Followed closely by "A Horse With No Name".

"I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can't remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La la la la la la..."

And don't get me wrong, I like me some Doobie Brothers, but good Lord man - their songs consisted of two verses, a chorus, then wrapped up with about 9 minutes of the same 4 lyrics repeated until consciousness is lost.
Exibit C: "Black Water"

"I'd like to hear some funky Dixieland
Pretty mama, come and take me by the hand
(By the hand) hand (take me by the hand) pretty mama
Gonna dance with your daddy all night long"

Repeat at least six times...

I’m going to “bundle and save” (my fingers from typing)

1) 93.7% of rap lyrics
 
Digging into the way back (for me) machine, there’s one guy who stands out for terminally dumb lyrics. Wesley Willis. He’s kind of a tragic story because he was legitimately mentally ill and the record companies were somewhat exploitative in keeping the dumpster fires burning, but believe it or not there were several albums released. These are NSFW and if you’re easily offended or don’t feel like losing IQ points due to exposure you might want to pass these up.

This one will not gain me any points 😜
And I do enjoy some Thorogood destroyers tunes....but this one cracks me up 🤣👍🤘

You know when I drink alone....I prefer to be by myself....
 


Tiptoe through the window
By the window, that is where I'll be
Come tiptoe through the tulips with me

Oh, tiptoe from the garden
By the garden of the willow tree
And tiptoe through the tulips with me

Knee deep in flowers we'll stray
We'll keep the showers away
And if I kiss you in the garden, in the moonlight
Will you pardon me?
And tiptoe through the tulips with me

Maybe it's flowers you stray will be the showers of life
And when I kiss you in the garden in the moonlight
Will you pardon me and tiptoe through the tulips with me?

Read for yourself.....
This from Fox but there are others ...
Basically just another "entertainer" who thinks his voice carries some political weight.
Funny thing is...has anyone actually seen any of these people actually renounce citizenship and move.....and leave all the money they made off the people ?
Neither have I....

By, don't let the door hit you where the good Lord split you
 
I love this one but the lyrics are pretty far out there. Thanks, Bruce.
