Lyrics where the artist just gave up.....

After sweating over a hot notebook for 72 hours you just couldn't get that line right, so let's just whisper it and hope that nobody notices......

America (Horse With No Name) - The heat was hot 

Right enough, it took me 50 years and I still didn't notice, it was my buoy who pointed it out!

In all summer long Kid Rock rhymes “things” with “things”

Sabbath do that in War Pigs

Generals gathered in their masses
Just like witches at black masses

Alice Cooper - School's Out

Well, we got no class
And we got no principals (ooh)
And we got no intelligence
We can't even think of a word that rhymes

It's a great lyric.....and, to quote a phrase, if that don't suit you that's a drag...

That has got to be the cleverest post of the day, so sad I could only give you one greenie!

Toto - Africa

The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless, longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti

On a blues compilation cassette somewhere (going through them all now with a USB converter but haven't found this one yet) I have this little masterpiece: 

I looked in on my children, still asleep in bed
I had to thank the lord 'cos neither one of them was dead. 

(EDIT: Larry Garner, I Just Thought I Had The Blues)

Nirvana may be cheating for this, but I'll skip the random noises/surrealist imagery/drug twitches and submit these excerpts from On A Plain

"I'll start this off without any words
...
As a defense I'm neutered and spayed
What the hell am I trying to say?
...
It is now time to make it unclear
To write off lines that don't make no sense
...
And one more special message to go
And then I'm done and I can go home"

I actually think that’s a very good rhyming effort.

I'm afraid of the dark
'Specially when I'm in a park
And there's no one else around
Ooh, I get the shivers
I don't want to see a ghost
It's a sight that I fear most
I'd rather have a piece of toast
And watch the evening news

Songwriters: Des'ree Weekes / Prince Sampson

Utter shite.
