worst song lyric of all time

quote:

BRITISH singer Des'ree today gained the dubious distinction of being responsible for the worst pop lyric of all time in the world ... ever.

In a fiercely fought BBC Radio poll, she took the prize for: "I don't want to see a ghost/ It's the sight that I fear most/ I'd rather have a piece of toast/ Watch the evening news."


She secured almost 30 per cent of the vote in the listener poll conducted by BBC DJ Marc Riley.

The runner-up prize went to Snap for "I'm as serious as cancer/ When I say rhythm is a dancer."

Third place went to Razorlight for the lyric "And I met a girl/ She asked me my name/ I told her what it was."

Michael Fry, lead singer of ABC, had been hoping to land the prize with his lyric "Can't complain, mustn't grumble/ Help yourself to another piece of apple crumble."

"I have been waiting for this kind of accolade for years," Fry told BBC Radio before the result dashed his hopes of dubious immortality.

"I would say to anyone writing songs that you shouldn't really put food in song lyrics," he said before finishing in a disappointing fourth place.

"Foodstuffs and rock 'n' roll just don't go together."

Bad lyrics can also just be a case of churning it out.

"Sometimes you reach verse three and the car is running outside so you have got to get the thing finished," Fry said.

"There is an element of that in the conveyor belt star-making machinery of pop."




rhyming in music isn't so important that you include the line "piece of toast", i can rhyme better than that, but i shant boast

the entire 'more money, more problems' song by puff daddy, biggy and MASE

the chorus sings about the more money you have in life the problems you get.

then puffy comes along and starts rapping about his boat, his houses, his cash, the fact that he is bigger than times square etc etc etc and that he is the greatest man alive

maybe he should have looked at the song title before writing his rap lyrics

I remember listening to Life when it came out and was like "a piece of toast?...wtf kind of lyrics are they"

From Paris to Berlin,
and every disco I get in,
my heart is pumping for love,
pumping with love,
when I'm thinking of you,
and all the things we could do,
my heart is pumping for love.

I made up some better lyrics in the shower when I had this ridiculous piece of garbage stuck in my head for a few days.

From your arse to my rim,
and every bedroom I get in,
my arse is pumping with cum,
pumping with cum,
when I'm think of you,
with your dick in my poo,
my arse is pumping with cum.

Haven't got past the chorus, those were the only words I knew.

p.s Though it may seem so, I'm not fourteen years old.

I actually listened to that song the other day and thought "ha cheesy/dodgy 90's lyrics" after I heard that line.

I always thought the lyrics from break my stride were one of the worst.

last night i had the strangest dream
i sailed away to china
in a little red boat to find ya
and you said you had to get your laundry cleaned

etc.

also, wtf with the lyrics in pictures too, why can't I turn off the projector or save them up for later?


Posted by DJ Patski on May-07-2007 07:12:

Yeah Pictures did have some pretty shit lyrics.

nope, you're all wrong.


The single worst lyric of all time is by that hack band Fall Out Boy (thanks to my mates gf for telling me who they are).

"I am an arms dealer"

no, you're a twat.

best lyrics = bob dylan

"the sword swallower comes up to you,
and then he kneels
he crosses himself,
and then he clicks his high-heels
and without further notice he asks you
how it feels:
and he says
"here is your throat back, thanks for the loan"
...
you see this one-eyed midget
shouting the word "now"
and you say for what reason
and he says "how"
and you say what does this mean
and he screams back "you're a cow!
give me some milk, or else go home!"

early bob dylan pwns (from "ballad of a thin man")

"here's a little song i wrote
you might want to take it note for note
so don't worry, be happy
don't worry, be happy now dooo doo doo doo etc.."

what a load of bullshit, everyone sucks and there's no point anymore. die everyone!!

Love..

That TV Rock bullshit, just when I thought they could do no worse than Flaunt It they managed to amaze me. Licking guitars, whipping cigars and whatever other nonsensical crap they decided to fill their SHIT music with. Ugh.
