BillyAnchor Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 It doesn't look all that bad when you read it but I still cringe at this part of Belle and Sebastian's song Nobody's Empire. It really doesn't work Now I look at you, you're a mother of twoYou're a quiet revolutionMarching with the crowd, singing dirty and loudFor the people's emancipation 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friendly advice to Julian Lennon that consists of "La, La-La, La-La-La-La, La-La-La-La, Hey Jude" over and over again. If I was Julian Lennon, I would have been seriously pissed off. It's "nanananananana" not "lalalalalalala", which i think we can all agree is much better advice. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was Geezer Butler wot wrote most of Sabbath's lyrics back in the earlies. Having read a number of GBs interviews over the years I'd argue he is the most damaged of the original line up and that includes the drummer, Bill Ward. GB has been in the news a lot recently because he is releasing his autobiography. ********************* Paranoid (lyrics mainly be GB) Finished with my woman 'Cause she couldn't help me with my mind People think I'm insane Because I am frowning all the time All day long, I think of things But nothing seems to satisfy Think I'll lose my mind If I don't find something to pacify Can you help me Occupy my brain? Oh, yeah I need someone to show me The things in life that I can't find I can't see the things that make true happiness I must be blind Make a joke and I will sigh And you will laugh and I will cry Happiness, I cannot feel And love, to me, is so unreal And so, as you hear these words Telling you, now, of my state I tell you to enjoy life I wish I could, but it's too late 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullerene Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 For those complaining about food inflation, spare a thought for the singer of The Motors. His love has left to go to a place "where the food is so much cheaper." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottsdad Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Lou Reed rhymed "Head" with "Head" in Walk on the Wild Side. Bella from the Red Hot Chili Peppers has this one: I love her, I need her Can't stop until I feed her I want her so badly Hell, no, my name ain't Bradley 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Steele Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 At the end of Dock of the Bay, Otis gives up on lyrics altogether and whistles. One story says he forgot what he was going to sing, another that it was a recording 'marker' for later addition of lyrics, yet another that it was intentional. Still one of the best songs ever, imo. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurkst Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Ohio by Neil Young/ CSNY. Great song but he didn't bother to write a 2nd verse. "Just go na na na na guys". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a PTTGOMN, but the video for the song features a plane at Cruising Altitude with no sign of a bloody airport anywhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
