    Well, if it's crap lyrics you want, then Cool For Cats by Squeeze has to get a mention - "I kiss her for the first time, and then I take her home, I'm invited in for coffee and I give the dog a bone" :eek:

    Even Noel Gallagher was moved to take the piss out of Jools Holland about that when he last appeared on his show - a mere 33 years later!!

    I still thought Squeeze were great!! :o

    Another doozy
    Help the aged,
    one time they were just like you,
    drinking, smoking cigs and sniffing glue. Help the aged,
    don't just put them in a home,
    can't have much fun in there all on their own.

    Give a hand, if you can,
    try and help them to unwind.
    Give them hope & give them comfort 'cos they're running out of time.

    *In the meantime we try.
    Try to forget that nothing lasts forever. No big deal so give us all a feel.
    Funny how it all falls away.
    When did you first realise?
    It's time you took an older lover baby. Teach you stuff
    although he's looking rough.
    Funny how it all falls away.

    Help the aged
    'cos one day you'll be older too
    - you might need someone who can
    pull you through
    & if you look very hard
    behind the lines upon their face you may see where you are headed
    and it's such a lonely place.

    [*Repeat]
    You can dye your hair
    but it's the one thing you can't change.
    Can't run away from yourself, yourself...

    [*Repeat]
    Funny how it all falls away. [x3]
    So help the aged.

    I always loved that song. It's the music and tune of a song that keeps people listening and coming back for more. Lyrics are overated.:p

    I like the lyrics.

    It's supposed to be some bloke shouting over a beat, not Proust.

    Not the worst for the lyrics (I think) but does anyone know the lyrics to Snow's Informer ?? (without looking them up!) It sounds like he's saying "I lick your bum bum down/yeah.." :o:o:o

    Apparently it's "A licky boom-boom down" but that makes no sense so we'll stick with the rimming lyrics.

    He must have had the worst credibility problem in rap history:a white rapper. With glasses. From Canada.

    Life by Des'ree, Sorry for the length of the quote.............
    Chorus:
    Life, oh life, oh life, oh life,
    doo, doot doot dooo.
    Life, oh life, oh life, oh life,
    doo, doot dooo

    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
    (Repeat Chorus)

    I'm a superstitious girl,
    I'm the worst in the world
    Never walk under ladders,
    I keep a rabbit's tail

    I'll take you up on a dare,
    Anytime, anywhere
    Name the place, I'll be there,
    Bungee jumping, I don't care!
    (Repeat Chorus)

    life, doo, doot dooo
    doo, doot dooo

    So after all is said and done
    I know I'm not the only one
    Life indeed can be fun, if you really want to

    Sometimes living out your dreams,
    Ain't as easy as it seems
    You wanna fly around the world,
    In a beautiful balloon
    (Repeat Chorus)

    Best casually homophobic lyric of any 80s dance or rap song is from Funky Cold Medina when he finds out the mot is actually a fella:

    "You know, ain't no plans with a man
    This is the 80's, and I'm down with the ladies
    Ya know?"

    It makes no sense to you because you aren't a Yardie.

    You should give Peter Frampton the 'credit' for that one, as he wrote and performed the original.

    Decent song, and if you really think those lyrics are 'the worst' you need to open your ears to some of the dreadful ****e the Black Eyed Peas have pedalled in recent years.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,713 ✭✭✭✭Novella


    I don't usually say things like this but here it is appropriate - that song is an absolute choooooon!

    Worst lyrics is Eminem in "Yellow Brick Road", trying to rhyme "birthday" with "first place"
