Song lyrics that annoy you

That is a Hunter S. Thomson quote, and it's "dancer" rather than "dancers".

That goes to show that it's not just the lyrics that are annoying but the way they're sung. I mean Johnny Cash managed to make a U2 song sound like it wasn't complete cobblers, so it can work both ways.

"That was Big Yellow Taxi by Joni Mitchell, a song in which Joni complains they 'Paved paradise to put up a parking lot', a measure which actually would have alleviated traffic congestion on the outskirts of paradise, something which Joni singularly fails to point out, perhaps because it doesn't quite fit in with her blinkered view of the world. Nevertheless, nice song."

Disagree with Alan that it is a nice song, but those fucking lyrics are beyond annoying.

I love New Order but some of their lyrics are beyond shite and annoy me because the music they are set to are amazing:

Every Second Counts - "Every second counts when I am with you - I think you are a pig - you should be in a zoo."

Your Silent face - "You've caught me at a bad time so why don't you piss off."

Semisonic - Secret Smile

Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile and you use it only for me

Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile and you use it only for me

Des'ree - Life

I don't want to see a ghost

It's the sight I fear the most

Rather have a piece of toast

Sandi Thom - I Wish I Wasn't Such A Fucking Cunt

Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair

In 77 and 69 revolution was in the air (?)

I was born too late into a world that doesn't care

Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair

When the head of state didn't play guitar (the Queen plays guitar now?)

Not everybody drove a car (Jesus fucksticks)

When music really mattered and when radio was king

When accountants didn't have control

And the media couldn't buy your soul

And computers were still scary and we didn't know everything (???)

[Chorus]

When pop-stars still remained a myth (What the fuuuuck are you talking about?)

And ignorance could still be bliss (Not feeling the bliss)

And when God Saved the Queen she turned a whiter shade of pale (ARGH!)

When my mom and dad were in their teens

And anarchy was still a dream (now a reality)

And the only way to stay in touch was a letter in the mail (or by phone)

[Chorus]

When record shops were still on top

And vinyl was all that they stocked (man this is dreadful)

And the super info highway was still drifting out in space (????????)

Kids were wearing hand me downs

And playing games meant kick around

And footballers still had long hair and dirt across their face

[Chorus]

I was born too late to a world that doesn't care

Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair (fuck off)

"Got a one way ticket to hell and back"

And worst of all, that fucking cunt Tinie Tempah

"Got so many clothes i keep some at my Aunt's house" Cool bro, real cool...

Compared to 'Slow Jam', those are pieces of literary genius.....

The afternoon was very clear

The sun was beating down on me

I got thirsty for a beer

That I had to go to sea

The sea was very rough

It made me feel sick

But I like that kind of stuff

It beats arithmetic

:puke:

Despite him being my favourite singer Fish has written a few lyrics that annoy me through the years:

Charting the single from the first Marillion album (remaster):

For anyone interested here's the song too... YouTube - Marillion - Charting The Single

Yeah!

Slow French kissing with the Dauphin's daughter

If I fall in love now I'll be floating in Seine

Plastered in Paris I've had an Eiffel

Gonna make my escape on the midnight train

Choo, choo to you - Choo, choo to you - Charting the single

Schnapping my fingers on an alcoholiday

Sniff round a Fraulein when I'm scent to Cologne

All night hotel Liebling make your mark

Let sugar daddy melt in his home sweet home

Home is where the heart lies, but if the heart lies

Where is home, is where the heart lies, but where is home?

Get a pizza the action when I Romeo again

Chianti see you with me, so just let him wine

Juliet on the balcony, it's pasta serenade

Wedding rings, I know when Venice time, Venice time

To chart the single, to chart the single

Charting the single, charting the single

The chicks are getting cheaper on the not so common market

Stockpile experience before the blond hairs turn to grey

Before the blond hairs turn to grey

I like to train, express myself in the universal language

Ego on my face in the nicest possible way

It's absolutely the nicest possible way

Charting the single

I got no clause in my contract, got no shares in my name

I'm just charting the single in a bachelor's game

Charting the single

It's a solo performance on a one way street

You'll never have the chance again and never again we'll meet

Charting, charting, charting, charting the single

----------------------

What is this except for the revenge of 3rd form poetry?
