hehe, I'm one of the worst threadjackers here.  I should have just threadjacked that other thread.  I only feel bad when I TJ a thread I didn't create.

How can this not make the list - ???

"lucky that my lips not only mumble,
they spill kisses like a fountain,
lucky that my breasts are small and humble,
so you don't confuse them with mountains,"


Of course, when you add in the visual to any Shakira song, what she's actually singing really doesn't matter a whit. :drool:

I think I heard Lennon in an interview once say "don't shoot heroin and write lyrics".

Here come old flat top
He come groovin' up slowly
He got jew jew eyeballs
He want holy rollers
He got hair down to his knees
Got to be a joker
He just do what he please

He wear no shoeshine
He got toe jam football
He got monkey finger
He shoot Coca Cola
He say I know you, you know me
One thing I can tell you is
You got to be free

He bag production
He got walrus gumboot
He got Ono sideboard
He one spinal cracker
He got feet down below his knees
Hold you in his armchair
You can feel his disease

He roller coaster
He got early warning
He got muddy water
He one Mojo filter
He say one and one and one is three
Got to be good looking
'cause he's so hard to see

Why is this so bad:

10. Black Sabbath - 'War Pigs'
"Generals gathered in their masses/Just like witches at black masses"

It's still happening today.

Oh yeah, now I remember which song I heard recently that inspired this thread.

Hit me with those laser beams

Biggest problem with that is rhyming masses with masses. Even though they're technically homonyms, it's still weak.

BTW, not a single KISS song on either list? Paul Stanley wrote some of the worst lyrics in the history of R&R.

That's gotta be one of the all-time best lines in rock and roll history, yes?   [sm_dontknow]

Clearly, pop culture and I are on different pages these days.  I think I'd better take up crocheting and hang out with E-A-G-L-E.   :)

This was actually SOLIDLY in the last top ten list of this nature I saw.

Appears to have been pushed out by Avril Lavigne or perhaps The Hoff...

I always thought so...even with the masses/masses thing. I don't know too.

Would now be a good time to mention my War Pigs tattoo?

Kiss + No Makeup = Just Another 80's hairband.

It was ALL about the show.

Shouldn't come as a surprise, he's a horrible studio singer too. Oh yeah, he's also probably drunk.

Spring was never waiting for us till
it ran one step ahead
as we followed in the dance.

Between the parted pages
we were pressed,
in love's hot, fevered iron
like a striped pair of pants.

Mac Arthur's 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 again
Oh, nooo!

I recall the yellow cotton dress
foaming like a wave
on the ground beneath your knees
birds like tender babies in your hands
and the old men playing
Chinese checkers
by the trees

Mac Arthur Park's 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 again
Oh, nooo!

There'll be another song for me
and I will sing it
there'll be another dream for me
someone will bring it
I will drink the wine while it is warn
and never let you catch me
looking at the sun, oh yeah
and after all the loves of my life
after all loves in my life
you'll be the one

I will take my life into my hands
and I will use it
I will win the worship in their eyes
and I will lose it
I will have the things that I desire
and my passion flow
like rivers through the sky
oh and after all the loves in my life
after all the loves in my life
you'll still be the one
and I'll ask myself why.

Mac Arthur's 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 again
Oh, nooo!
