    What are the funniest lyrics you've heard?

    Mine would be (they do sound much funnier than they read):

    "Mention The Lord Of The Rings one more time
    and I'll more than likely kill you.
    Moorcock, Moorcock, Michael Moorcock you fervently moan.
    ......"

    from Dickie Davies Eyes - Half Man, Half Biscuit.

    One of my favourites is from "Dr Teeth and the Electric Mayhem" (muppets band :p ) and it goes :

    Her hair is in the closet,
    Her teeth are on the shelf,
    I'm gonna put the best bits in a bag,
    And go out by myself. :D

    The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths always brings a smile to my face

    "I broke into the palace
    With a sponge and a rusty spanner
    She said 'I know you and you cannot sing'
    I said 'That's nothing, you should hear me play piano'"

    Hate the Ku Klux Klan, they abuse curtains and sheets
    And I need 'em at home, but that's a personal peeve

    hate the artist but ''I've been through it all the fails the falls, like Niagra
    But i Bounced right back up like Viagra''

    You cursed it, but rehearsed it
    I drop unexpectedly like bird ****

    Ask Beavis I get nothing But head

    I'm really calm and peaceful
    I like birds, bees, I like people
    I like things that make me happy and gleeful
    like when my teacher sucked my wee in pre school

    again hate the artist but ''I luv ya like a fat kid loves cake''

    Wearing visors sunglasses and disguises
    Cause my split personality is having an identity crisis
    I'm Dr. Hyde and Mr. Jekyl
    Disrespectful
    Hearing voices in my head while these whispers echo


    lots of others - googled all these as my brain is sleepy

    There's plenty of joviality to be had on this entire album.

    "Give me another drink Mr. Bartender........if you don't I'm gonna stick yer d!ck in a blender"
    "Coz I..........I'm gonna drink 'til I die!"

    Brilliant. But then again almost any song by Half Man Half Biscuit is hilarious.

    Yeah, HMHB have fantastic lyrics; really witty stuff!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 386 ✭✭davylee


    Lyrics to the kinks "lola" are hilarious. should have a look.
    Joe Jackson's "is she really going out with him is good too.

    Look over there! (Where?)
    Here comes Jeanie with her new boyfriend
    They say that looks don't count for much
    If so, there goes your proof.

    "I had a friend, his name was Frank
    He walked on water but Lord he sank
    We used to go stag, now he's got a hag
    It looks like Frank has got a brand new bag"

    Frank's Song by Tom Waits

    Most John Prine lyrics are coated in some wonderfully witty themes, excluding his more serious stuff of course.

    "Woke up this morning, put on my slippers
    Walked in the kitchen and died
    And oh what a feeling, when my soul went through the cieling
    And onward into heaven I did ride"

    Please Don't Bury Me by John Prine

    And of course, Lawless by Christy Moore (can't remember the name of the composer at the moment)

    "And the couple were blessed, with one of God's miracles
    Before six months had elapsed
    Dolly gave birth, to a nine pund black baby
    And lawless was fit to collapse"

    Gunther - Ding Dong Song

    Oooh, you touch my tra-la-la
    Mmmm, my ding-ding-dong


    It remains a mystery if the lyrics are tongue-in-cheek or not.

    "I like naked ladies,
    I like making babies,
    I wanna make with girls all around the world..........."

    "..........I like looking at boobies,
    I like porno movies,
    I wanna make em with girls all around the world."

    Ok silly lyrics but the whole situation is ****ed up.

    Tom Green and Jurrasic 5

    "its so easy" by Guns 'n Roses

    "i see you standing there
    you think you're so cool
    why dont you just......
    **** OFF!"

    "you get nothing for nothing
    if thats what you do
    turn around bitch ive got a use
    for you besides, you aint got nothing better to do
    and IM BORED"

    On the national express theres a jolly hostess
    Selling crisps and tea
    She'll provide you with drinks and theatrical winks
    For a sky-high fee
    Mini-skirts were in style when she danced down the aisle
    Back in 63 (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
    But its hard to get by when your arse is the size
    Of a small country
    And everybody sings ba ba ba da...

    Devine comedy....National express

    From Alice Coopers Go to Hell you have

    You're something that never should have happened
    You even make your Grandma sick
    You'd poison a blind man's dog and steal his cane
    You'd gift-wrap a leper
    And mail him to your Aunt Jane
    You'd even force-feed a diabetic a candy cane


    Pure class and could have been written by Morrissey

    I just got the Billion Dollar Babies reissue with bonus Live CD and some of the tracks like Dead Babies and I love the Dead were really out there for the late 60s early 70s and wouldnt be out of place in Marilyn Mansons back catalogue let alone what became a pop band with Schools Out - a teen anthem.

    Careful with that Mic by Clutch

    "What's the matter with you?
    How come you rhyme monosyllabically?
    Has atrophy stricken your entire vocabulary?
    Your style's like a garbage can,
    It's meant to be taken out on a weekly basis.
    Ever since you first reckoned you been in a state of suspended animation."

    Great few lines that.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,397 ✭✭✭Paparazzo


    Goldie Lookin Chain. Almost all of their lyrics are brilliant.
    I've been into fighting for most of my life,
    And when I gets married I'll beat the wife

    I nearly forgot Loudain (dad of Rufus)Wainwrights I.W.I.W.A.L

    I wish I was a lesbian and that I wasn't straight.
    I'd sleep with women only. Man, it would be great.
    I'd throw away my diaphragm, I wouldn't want to mate.
    I wish I was a lesbian, and that I wasn't straight!
    I wish I were a lesbian, I'd like to be a dyke.
    I'd sleep with k.d. lang. Mel Gibson, take a hike!
