Stupidest song lyrics ever!

that songs the realness you just haten



The list is endless, one of the most famous and successful set of lyrics of all time, Whiter Shade of Pale, my all time favouirite track, written and recorded by two old buddies of mine.
Still makes no sense to me.:dunno:

"We skipped a light fandango,
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor.
I was feeling kind of seasick,
But the crowd called out for more.
The room was humming harder,
As the ceiling flew away.
When we called out for another drink,
The waiter brought a tray.

And so it was that later,
As the miller told his tale,
That her face at first just ghostly,
Turned a whiter shade of pale.

She said there is no reason,
And the truth is plain to see
That I wandered through my playing cards,
And would not let her be
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Who were leaving for the coast.
And although my eyes were open,
They might just as well have been closed.

And so it was later,
As the miller told his tale,
That her face at first just ghostly,
Turned a whiter shade of pale.
 
"Give peace a chance" ?????? WTF?:dunno:

I predict that this could become a long thread, with so many to choose from.
 
A genuine classic in this category:

McCarthur 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, agaaaaaaaain!

So very appropriate for this thread...

These would be the two I'd have to agree with the most, but I'm sure there are other songs that leave us all with blank stares and open mouths. We will find them... we will post them here...

Axl Rose once said:
"If love is blind I guess I'll buy myself a cane."

To quote the Tragically Hip, "It's so deep it's meaningless."
 
How about this one from Paul McCartney? I know Paul like to smoke the weed but he must have smoked all day and been really paranoid that someone was at the door.

"Let Em In"

By Paul McCartney

Someone's knockin' at the door
Somebody's ringin' the bell
Someone's knockin' at the door
Somebody's ringin' the bell
Do me a favor,
Open the door and let 'em in(repeat)
Sister Suzie, brother John,
Martin Luther, Phil And Don,
Brother Michael, Auntie Gin,
Open the door,let 'em in.
Sister Suzi, brother John,
Martin Luther, Phil and Don,
Uncle Ernie,Auntie Gin
open the door, let em in

Someone's knockin' at the door
Somebody's ringin' the bell
Someone's knockin' at the door
Somebody's ringin' the bell
Do me a favor,open the door and let em in
oo yeah let em in

Sister Suzi, brother John,
Martin Luther, Phil and Don, ooo
Uncle Ernie,Uncle Ian
open the door let em in

Someone's knockin' at the door
Somebody's ringin' the bell
Someone's knockin' at the door
Somebody's ringin' the bell
Do me a favor,open the door and let em in
yeah yeah yeah
 
Well, Neil Peart is a great drummer... But lyricist? Not so much...

Neil Peart wasn't the only talent in the band. Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson are both incredible.

Here, have a gander at the song called The Trees, and keep in mind that there is a political message behind it. Then you will understand every word.


There is unrest in the forest,
There is trouble with the trees,
For the maples want more sunlight
And the oaks ignore their pleas.
The trouble with the maples,
(And they're quite convinced they're right)
They say the oaks are just too lofty
And they grab up all the light.
But the oaks can't help their feelings
If they like the way they're made.
And they wonder why the maples
Can't be happy in their shade.
There is trouble in the forest,
And the creatures all have fled,
As the maples scream "Oppression!"
And the oaks just shake their heads
So the maples formed a union
And demanded equal rights.
"The oaks are just too greedy;
We will make them give us light."
Now there's no more oak oppression,
For they passed a noble law,
And the trees are all kept equal
By hatchet, axe, and saw.

The lyrics to "everyone's" favorite song Smoke On The Water

Being in the music business since out of high school. Long, long time ago.... The song "Smoke On The Water" was written by Deep Purple. They flew to Montreux to record their new album. "Machine Head". Half way threw the recordings "Some stupid with a flare gun burned the place to the ground". The song is the events of what happened. True story.:thumbsup:

Yello-Oh Yeah
The Moon Beautiful
The sun even more beautiful
:confused:
 
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
How soft your fields so green, can whisper tales of gore,
Of how we calmed the tides of war. We are young overlords.
