Reply To: Your Vote for the Worst Rock / Pop Lyric of All Time

[MagicRuss]

Anything in today’s pop world or anything you hear in the club is almost to easy, so here are a few suggestions outside that:

“I eat at Chez Nous” is up there.  Nobody could tell Trevor Rabin that there had to be a better line?

I’ll also nominate “I Don’t Care Anymore” by Phil Collins because its hard to buy that you don’t care if you have to scream it for five minutes.

U2’s “Every Breaking Wave” has the line “Every gambler knows that to lose is what you’re there for”.

Also nearly every song with grammatically incorrect usage of “You and I”, the worst offender being that song by the Bodeans.

Every song from the 60s referencing Romeo and Juliet.

“Smell Yo D@ck” has to be pretty high up on the list.

I’d nominate something by Nickelback but I’d have to actually think about their lyrics.

Also, according to Bob Daisley, all the lyrics Ozzy proposed for his first two albums.

Also, Black Sabbath, “Warning” has the line “I was born without you baby, but my feelings were a little bit too song”.  The original lyrics, “I was warned about you…” actually make sense.

And who can forget “Rock and Roll cola wars, I can’t take it anymore!”
