Most bizarre lyrics of all time?

I used to think that Oasis - Supersonic had this one in the bag, with such beauties as "I know a girl called Elsa, She's into alka-seltzer, She sniffs it through a cane on a supersonic train" and even better, "She's sniffin in a tissue sellin' the Big Issue".

Then heard The Beatles - I am the Walrus, and i have to say, it takes the biscuit. "Semolina pilchards climbing up the Eiffel Tower, Elementary penguins singin' Hare Krishna", "Yellow matter custard dripping from a dead dog's eye", "I am here as you are he as you are me and we are all together", "Sittin on a cornflake, waitin for the van to come" and "I am the eggman, They are the eggmen, I am the walrus, goo goo g'joob".

In fact, there isn't as single lyric in the entire song that makes sense!!

limpdd · 15-02-2003 4:37am

Woah that is fairly fncked up. I never realised how odd the lyrics were on that song!

ykt0di9url7bc3 · 15-02-2003 3:29pm

some of Death in Vegas lyrics are class but phreaky... Aiska being a paticularly good example!...not really bizarre but very different

therecklessone · 15-02-2003 4:02pm

The spoken word intro to Ministry's Jesus Built My Hotrod.

Or anything by Mad Capsule Markets.

Darkillion · 15-02-2003 6:18pm

Pearl Jam - Goat (unreleased)

Should have replaced red dot off Yield with that. Vast improvement.

You get any of the new bootlegs?

Anything in Russian sounds particularly bizarre to me!

Meshuggah's "New millenium cyandide christ" lyrics actually scare me. I bought the album today and only the train platform I read the lyrics. I think its about a robotic life thats being made out of humans or it's what he sees himself in in the mirror. Here have a read. (The vocabulary they use is emence! This is a sweedish band by the way!)

New millenium cyandide christ:

Music: Fredrik Thordendal, Mårten Hagström
Lyrics: Tomas Haake

I'M A CARNAL, ORGANIC ANAGRAM. HUMAN FLESH INSTEAD OF WRITTEN LETTERS.
I REARRANGE MY PATHETIC TISSUE. I INCISE. I REPLACE. I'M REFORMED.
I ERADICATE THE FAKE PRE-PRESENT ME. ELEVATE ME TO A HIGHER HUMAN FORM.
THE CHARACTERS I AM, MADE INTO A WORD COMPLETE, THEN I'LL BE THE NEW NORM.

SELF INFLICTED FRACTURES. I REPLACE MY BONES WITH BARS;
ALUMINUM BLEEDING OXIDE; THE DRUG OF GODS INTO MY POUNDING VEINS

(A HUMAN PUZZLE FOR ALL TO SCORN. NO FACE. NO BACK. DIRECTIONLESS.
MY SCARRED EDITION I'LL DISPLAY; THE ORGANIC WORD FOR NOTHINGNESS)

MY RECEIVING EYES EXCHANGED WITH FUSES; BLINDNESS INDUCED TO PREVENT DESTRUCTION.
CERAMIC BLADES IMPLANTED PAST MY RIBS TO SAVE ME FROM THE DUES OF INHALATION.
I TEAR MY WORLDLY USELESS SKIN. STAPLES TO PIN IT OVER MY EARS.
NON-RECEPTIVE OF UNGODLY SOUNDS - I DISABLE THE AUDIO-GENERATORS OF FEAR.

HEXAGONAL BOLTS TO FILL MY MOUTH, SHARPENED TO DEPLETE THE CREATOR OF ALL VIOLENCE;
WITHOUT SPEECH THERE WILL BE NO DECEIT

(MY FEET I CRUSH. THE FLESH I CUT AWAY, SO AS TO NOT PRODUCE THE SOUND OF THEIR PRESENCE ON ROTTEN GROUND)

BAPTIZED IN VITRIOLIC ACID. A FINAL TOUCH. A SMOOTHING OF FEATURES.
COMPLETION OF THE GREATEST ART; TO CAST THE GODLY CREATURES.
HUMANS, ONCE ASTRAY; MADE DIVINE. STRIPPED OF CONGENITAL FLAWS.
WE'RE INCANDESCENT REVELATIONS IN A WORLD OF DARKENED FORMS.

(CONFIDE IN MY NEW AGE DOGMA. SWALLOW THE INDOCTRINATION. YOU'LL COME TO LOVE IT HERE,
THE SUICIDAL ATMOSPHERE. LET ME INTO YOUR COMMON MIND. I'LL PLANT MY THOUGHTS INTO ITS SOIL.
WALK AMONG US SELF-MADE GODS, DEIFIED THROUGH THE PAINS OF SELF TORTURE)

DISCIPLES, COME JOIN WITH ME TO SAVE A FAILED HUMANITY. FOLLOW THE GOD OF CYANIDE INTO THE NEW ETERNITY.
BEHOLD; A SACRIFICIAL RASE A CLEANSING WORSHIPPING OF PAIN.
THE NEW MILLENIUM CHRIST HERE TO REDEEM ALL FROM LIES

(I'VE COME TO SAVE YOU ALL. I'VE COME TO LIGHT YOUR WAY)

:eek:

In the booklet there was a picture of what he was talking about and it's really freaky. I would show you but I've no skner. Does anyone else have Chaosphere? And a skanner?

kingconor · 15-02-2003 10:39pm

I'm gonna have to go for David Bowie - Jean Geinie and Led Zep - Stairway to Heaven!

Crucifix · 16-02-2003 12:10am

System of a down's song "I-E-A-I-A-I-O", is pretty fúcked up. Things like: "Peter’s pecker picked another pickle bearing pussy pepper", sang real fast.

superconor · 16-02-2003 12:24am

good responces but other contenders are
Beans by Nirvana
"Daddy ate some beans, Daddy ate some beans, and he was happy happy happy happy, when he ate some beans"
and Eat the rich by Motorhead, for the line..
"Shetland pony, Extra Pepporonni"

Drunk pirate · 16-02-2003 12:53am

Nirvana were allways wierd - lyricly and mentally. DID ANYONE BOTHER READING MINE HUH? FEEDBACK....

ManWithThePlan · 16-02-2003 12:54am

I know this isn't a rock/metal song but..

Simon and Garfunkel - Scarborough Fair

'..Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme..' - That's what they must have been smoking when they wrote this song.

Drunk pirate · 16-02-2003 1:02am

Oh I just remembered. Back in the day (last year) when I ocasionaly listened to Nirvana I had the B-side Insecticide. On it there is a song called Hairspray queen. It doesn't have any lyrics (I think). It's just yer man screaming ****e. Really weird...

Pigman II · 16-02-2003 1:14am

(bizarre imagery anyway!)

Korn - K@#Ø%!
=============
**** you titty suckin, two balled bitch
With a fat bruised clit
My big compoto bitch
Oh ****, ****ing, ass licking, piss sucking, ****
These nuts on your lips
Kentucky fried kung-pao clits
Saggy tits swinging between your fat, crusty arm pits
Big ass hairy mole between your pussy lips
****, ****, cock, dick, ****, tit, barf, piss, balls, ass, pecker, queef
Oh ****, ****, bitch, damn ****in diarhea slut, with HIV

ThrAx · 16-02-2003 2:00am

K@#Ø%! that song rules. That whole album rules.

Look at these for ****ed up lyrics:

OTEP - Jonestown Tea:

no daddy don't! no daddy don't! LEAVE ME ALOOOOONE!
NO EYE DON'T WANT TO BE FREE!
SO TAKE YOUR DICK OUT OF ME! PLEASE TAKE YOUR DICK OUT OF ME!

...

MAMA!
are the aliens coming to take us away? [mama?]
is armageddon gonna happen again today?

Drunk pirate · 16-02-2003 1:31pm

Korn are wierd anywho. What about those songs called Daddy n'all? Not a fan of korn.

Pugsley · 16-02-2003 1:49pm

Primus - DMV, that songs f*cked up

Drunk pirate · 16-02-2003 1:53pm

I saw Primus on MTV2 before. What are they country punk?!

cournioni · 16-02-2003 2:29pm

Primus are Prog with a bit of comedy in there methinks. Quite funny.

Here is some of the most bizarre lyrics of all time...
In Flames - Artifacts of the Black Rain.

Stood there leaning to the city moon,
casting silhouettes tall to grip her white rooms
the black-clad voyeur in his black-clad masque
in the serpentine sun of tragedy basked

Stood there cursing at the soul-dead mass
with their fabled illusions, the vain dreams that passed
splinters of a life rushing by in the whirl
alone, silent warrior in a fantasy world

He cried for night / but night could not come
so, swept in the shroud of misanthropia he went away
and fed the empty galleries
with the artifacts of the black rain
sunken into the shadows with a dry, sardonic smile

He made the footprints a part of his heart
to rouse a sacred confrontation

Stood there carving on the monument to lies
digging of the Earth, making friends with the soil
as the all-mother rises and bares her bleeding thighs
he disappears into her cold, icy womb

i actually quite like Red Dot (its actually called the colour red but who cares)

as for the new bootlegs, no not yet. however, im gonna do the same as i did last time, get one from every continent. which means i will get at least 3 and hopefully 4 (please come to Europe and play N.I.!)

D-Generate · 16-02-2003 9:02pm

Primus were great, they were all very talented musicians. Pity their songs were rarely serious.......

Primus - Shake Hands With Beef extract

Pull out the cannon boys
Steal us some wine
Puff Tijuana Smalls
SHAKE HANDS WITH BEEF

She's so fine
She's so sweet
Mom and Pop they raised her
On huge slabs of meat

She's fine

A man of nine
Water derby day
Twenty six pumps
On a Crossman
And it's time to play

Axe · 16-02-2003 11:00pm

DID ANYONE BOTHER READING MINE HUH? FEEDBACK....

Of course no-one bothered reading yours, i tried but got mildly bored after the 2nd verse, and very bored after the 3rd. Then I stopped trying.

While I'd love them to play more than one show in Ireland, I hate to say it will be the Point or nowt else. Unless they happen to be free July 13/14, which is when Witnness is supposed to be. Now that would be nice.

I got the first one from Brisbane (downloaded the unmastered mp3s in no time as well), but not a great show. I also ordered the last Aussie, and first Japanese shows, and have 14 from the 2000 series. Bit of a fan(atic!)

It has to be GWAR : (actual lyrics)
"...go on and find somebody
and get them really bloody
peelin' and a porkin'
dealin' and a dorkin'
chokin' and a jokin'
laffin' and a loadin'...'"

Darkillion · 18-02-2003 9:20pm
