You'd Be Better Selling Water To The Gremlins Up In Space!

The Backwards Man

Just heard that lyric in 'You Won't Get A Tan In The Costa Strabane' by Curtis McGee. I think it's the wrongest thing I've ever saw writ.

Gremlins didn't come from space.
They have no money to buy water.
How would we get the water to them?

Anybody think of a worser example of shoddy writing than that?

Google any Bell X1 song

I'll be your velcro? WTF.

Got a new supplier have we?

Agree with Liz.

You're just picking your knickers out your arse,
Like you're playing a one stringed harp!

If this ever-crazy world in which we live in

OP you must first consider..."Are we human, or are we dancer?"

Captain Farrell

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


Worst. Ever.

Wow- funny isn't it,because I think Bell X1 lyrics are fantastic,really clever. Now 'shine bright like a diamond' is pure balderdash.Diamonds don' t shine,they refract light. That's all.

Oh so many to choose from. However I believe this piece of s#!t was voted the worst of all time in a BBC poll

Clever?

Underwired bras setting off metal detectors at airports?

If only, "Please remove your shoes and bras"

Even worse it's the X-Ray machine! Drives me nuts when I hear that.

Actually maybe not so confusing as showing the confusion of the singer.

I had no sleep last night, it's Monday and the heat's getting to me, but that makes perfect sense to me. That second 'in' transforms Live And Let Die from a cabaret crapfest into a masterpiece.

Lou Reed has written some dreadful lyrics:

"I would cut my legs and tits off when I think of Boris Karloff."

That's off his Metallica collaboration.

MacArthur Park is a classic of awful (yet kind of awesome) lyricism:

"Between the parted pages
We were pressed in love's hot fevered iron
Like a striped pair of pants.

MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark,
All that sweet green icing flowing down.
Someone left the cake out in the rain.
And I don't think I can take it, 'cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again."

Michael D Not Higgins

up for anything

This has to be one of the maddest reflecting what was obviously the burning question of the day.

[Oh-me, oh-my, oh-you
Whatever shall I do
Hallelujah, the question is peculiar
I'd give a lot of dough
If only I could know
The answer to my question
Is it yes or is it no

Does your chewing gum lose its flavour
On the bedpost overnight
If your mother says don't chew it
Do you swallow it in spite
Can you catch it on your tonsils
Can you heave it left and right
Does your chewing gum lose its flavour
On the bedpost overnight

Here comes a blushing bride
The groom is by her side
Up to the altar
Just as steady as Gibraltar
Why, the groom has got the ring
And it's such a pretty thing
But as he slips it on her finger
The choir begins to sing

Does your chewing gum lose its flavour
On the bedpost overnight
If your mother says don't chew it
Do you swallow it in spite
Can you catch it on your tonsils
Can you heave it left and right
Does your chewing gum lose its flavour
On the bedpost overnight

Now the nation rise as one
To send their only son
Up to the White House
Yes, the nation's only White House
To voice their discontent
Unto the Pres-I-dent
They pawn the burning question
What has swept this continent

(Lonnie speaks)
If tin whistles are made of tin
What do they make fog horns out of
Boom, boom

Does your chewing gum lose its flavour
On the bedpost overnight
If your mother says don't chew it
Do you swallow it in spite
Can you catch it on your tonsils
Can you heave it left and right
Does your chewing gum lose its flavour
On the bedpost overnight

On the bedpost overnight

(Man)
Hello there, I love you and the one who holds you tight

(Lonnie)
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday
Thursday, Friday, Sat'day night

On the bedpost overnight

(Man)
A dollar is a dollar and a dime is a dime

(Lonnie)
He's singin' out the chorus
But he hasn't got the time

On the bedpost overnight, yeah

I get that dull wave of contempt every time I hear that shite.

I dont know what song it is or who sings it but it was never off the radio there a while back.
There's this one bit in it where some prick goes

*something something something* spiral
My love for you went viral.

Makes me want to cringe, vomit and hit someone at the same time.

Just look at it, complete gibberish, why I don't even think he can speak Engrish
