    Behold the lyrics of Ke$ha;

    "Your love, your love, your love, is my drug. I like your beard"

    "Dont be a little b!tch with your chit chat, just show me where your d!ck's at"

    Christ.

    Though I like them, you gotta wonder what the Presidents of the USA meant:

    Lump sat alone in a boggy marsh
    Totally motionless except for her heart
    Mud flowed up into lump's pyjammas
    She totally confused all the passing piranhas
    She's lump she's lump
    She's in my head
    She's lump she's lump she's lump
    She might be dead
    Lump lingered last in line for brains
    And the ones she got were sorta rotten and insane
    Small thing's so sad that birds could land
    Is lump fast asleep or rockin' out with the band

    Are we human or are we dancers?
    My sign is vital, my hands are cold
    And I'm on my knees looking for the answer
    Are we human or are we dancers?

    I genuinely lose hope in humanity everytime i hear this "song" :mad:

    Wannabe by the Spice Girls is terrible but someone already mentioned it. The Real Slim Shady is another one I can't stand.
    "My bum is on your lips, my bum is on your lips"
    And if I'm lucky, you might just give it a little kiss
    And that's the message that we deliver to little kids
    And expect them not to know what a woman's clitoris is
    Of course they gonna know what intercourse is
    By the time they hit fourth grade
    When was the message of "my bum is on your lips" delivered to little kids? Was it on Barney or something?

    "If she ever tries to f**kin' leave
    again, I'ma tie her to the bed
    And set this house on fire."

    A less than charming sentiment from Eminem's Love the way you lie...
    Surprised it was passed for daytime airplay (minus swearing) to be honest.

    Or a lyric that makes perfect sense in context. ;)

    When was the message of "my bum is on your lips" delivered to little kids? Was it on Barney or something?

    He was referring to Tom Green who released a song called Lonely Swedish in 1999. The content of the song is pretty much just the singers bottom being on various things, including (but not limited to) cheese, a dog, a telephone and gum. You can view the lyrics to Lonely Swedish here, if you want to, that is.

    Back to awful lyrics:

    What's she gonna look like with a chimney on her?
    Feel It - The Tamperer (featuring Maya on screech-als)

    All summer that year kids were asking each other "You know what that means? You know what she means when she says that?" I would usually answer "Yes. We had this exact conversation the last time that song came on the radio."

    I'm also not a fan of the nonsensical:

    Gitchi gitchi ya ya da da
    Gitchi gitchi ya ya here
    Mocha chocolata, ya ya
    Creole Lady Marmalade
    Lady Marmalade - Patti LaBelle, All Saints, Christina Aguilera & Co.

    Sounds like baby talk.

    What you gon' do wit all that breast?
    All that breast inside that shirt?
    I'ma make, make, make, make you work
    Make you work, work, make you work.

    I think these two verses are my particular favourites in that song.

    I dont really like Arctic Monkeys nonsensical lyrical direction of late

    "Run wiith scissors through a ship and fireflies
    Go into business with a grizzly bear
    But just dont sit down cause ive moved your chair"

    What the ****ing ****??

    I retract my earlier statement about 'Desree - Life' having the worst lyrics ever, I just remembered the tremendous drivel spouted by Katie Melua

    this...
    There are nine million bicycles in Beijing
    That's a fact
    It's a thing we can't deny
    Like the fact that I will love you till I die

    that....
    This is the closest thing to crazy I have ever been
    Feeling twenty-two, acting seventeen,
    This is the nearest thing to crazy I have ever known,
    I was never crazy on my own...
    And now I know that there's a link between the two,
    Being close to craziness and being close to you.

    ..and the piece de resistance...
    If you're a cowboy I would trail you,
    If you're a piece of wood I'd nail you to the floor.
    If you're a sailboat I would sail you to the shore.
    If you're a river I would swim you,

    I don't see what's so terrible about that Closest Thing To Crazy song. The lyrics are not that bad, I don't think. Certainly not great, but not terrible either. There's far, far worse out there.

    Can you name the truck with four wheel drive,
    Smells like a steak and seats thirty 5.

    Canyonero!

    Well it goes real slow with the hammer down,
    Its the countrified truck and endorsed by a clown

    Canyonero! YAH! Canyonero!

    One yard long, two length wide
    65 tons of American pride

    Canyonero!

    Top of the line in Utility Sports,
    unexplained fires are a matter for the courts!

    Canyonero! Canyonero! YAH!

    She blinds everybody with a super high beam,
    She's a squirrelsquasher deersmacking Driving Machine!

    Canyonero! Yah Canyoneroooo!
    YAH YAH CANYONERO WOAH CANYONERO!!!!!!!

    Most of Katie Melua's songs have stupid lyrics, but this one shines brighter than most:

    "If You Were a Sailboat"

    If you're a cowboy I would trail you,
    If you're a piece of wood I'd nail you to the floor.
    If you're a sailboat I would sail you to the shore.
    If you're a river I would swim you,
    If you're a house I would live in you all my days.
    If you're a preacher I'd begin to change my ways.

    Sometimes I believe in fate,
    But the chances we create,
    Always seem to ring more true.
    You took a chance on loving me,
    I took a chance on loving you.

    If I was in jail I know you'd spring me
    If I was a telephone you'd ring me all day long
    If was in pain I know you'd sing me soothing songs.

    Sometimes I believe in fate,
    But the chances we create,
    Always seem to ring more true.
    You took a chance on loving me,
    I took a chance on loving you.

    If I was hungry you would feed me
    If I was in darkness you would lead me to the light
    If I was a book I know you'd read me every night

    If you're a cowboy I would trail you,
    If you're a piece of wood I'd nail you to the floor.
    If you're a sailboat I would sail you to the shore.
    If you're a sailboat I would sail you to the shore

    THERE IS A MOUNTAIN

    The lock upon my garden gate's a snail, that's what it is.
    The lock upon my garden gate's a snail, that's what it is.
    First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is.

    Oh, the snow will be a blinding sight to see as it lies on yonder hillside.

    The lock upon my garden gate's a snail, that's what it is.

    "I met a guy at the club

    I let him know I'm in love

    I met a girl at the bar
    I let her know who you are

    I told her you are a love of my life and
    One day you gonna be my wife and

    We are gonna have some baby together
    I told him you are a man of my dreams
    You saved me from drowning in the streams
    I know we're really gonna last forever and ever

    It was those, 3 words that saved my life
    It wasn't complicated
    Wasn't pre-meditated
    It wasn't under-rated
    Boy I'm so glad you stayed and
    It was those 3 words saved my life
    It wasn't complicated
    Wasn't pre-meditated
    To you I'm dedicated

    Let's go ahead and say it oh yeah"

    Your grammar is appalling.

    My grammar is appalling because when posting a message on After Hours I put "you're opinion" instead of "your opinion" by mistake/without paying attention? You realise I used it correctly when stating the lyric saying "you're the chocolate..." and not "your the chocolate..."?

    People who go around correcting posts on internet forum boards (especially one as lighthearted as After Hours) are sad little bastards. I think you'll find that your grammar is appalling, Aoife_Bennett. I got an A1 in honours English for the leaving cert and I am a published poet, you mad?

    I'm guessing you're doing a course which has a large emphasis on English and thus have an inflated sense of self-importance with regards to the English language and feel that it is your duty to correct others? Sad.

    Loads of sh1te lyrics to awful, mass-produced stuff, but I always think, when it comes to this topic, of artists I like:

    Thumbs up for their sheer "Ah just stick whatever rhymes in" approach. :D

    Madness - "I like driving in my car... even with a flat ty-ar" (Driving In My Car)
    The Stranglers - "I can think of a lot worse places to be - like down in the streets, or down in the sewer... or even on the end of a skewer" (Peaches)
    T-Rex - "She's my woman of gold and she's not very old... She ain't no witch and I love the way she twitch... She's faster than most and she lives on the coast..." (Hot Love)
    Prince - "Sign o' the times, mess with your mind, hurry before it's too late... Let's fall in love get married have a baby - we'll call him Nate... if it's a boy" (Sign O' The Times)

    I personally feel Torso****'s "Raped by Elephants" to be much more sophisticated and classy!:p:D

    I had a look at some of the related vids to that song on Youtube... some great titles... "Panda Penis", "Herpes Injection", and my personal fave "P1ss Shower Cumslut".

    I mean, I like metal myself , but holy fcuk!:pac:
