Horrible Song Lyrics

[queequeg]

As much as I love The Human League, the lyrics to Heart Like a Wheel are just crap.

Heart like a wheel, turning away from anything that's real.
Heart like a wheel, changing in time, beating colder steel.

WTF? It's just a really terrible analogy.

Destiny's Child "Cater 2 U"
Beyonce:
Let me help you take off your shoes
Untie your shoe strings, take off your cufflinks
What you wanna eat, Boo, let me feed you
Let me run your bath water
Whatever you desire, I'll supply ya
Sing you a song, turn my game on
I'll brush your hair, help you put your do-rag on
Wanna foot rub, want a manicure
Baby, I'm yours
I wanna cater to you, boy
Kelly:
When you come home late, tap me on my shoulder
I'll roll over
Baby, I heard you, I'm here to serve you
If it's love you need, to give it is my joy
All I wanna do
Is cater to you, boy
Michelle:
I wanna give my breath, my strength, my will to you
That's the least I can do, let me cater to you

[queequeg]

Eww. is right.

Baby, I heard you, I'm here to serve you
If it's love you need, to give it is my joy

Huh? Wow. Between this and that "Soldier" song, Destiny's Child is seriously getting on my nerves with the female submission theme they've got going on.

The use of "deep-fried chicken" in Drops of Jupiter has always irked me.

Kind of off-topic, but I hate Clay Aiken's Invisible, not necessarily for the lyrics, per se, but for the fact that the song delivers them wrong (the song's upbeat, and if he's so invisible, then he shouldn't have a bunch of backup singers behind him).

Oh, god. I HATE that Train song. Not just for the inane lyrics but for the fact that every other lyric is EH EHHHH EH EH. I'm sorry but they really couldn't think of anything else to sing for half their song but EH EHHHH EH EH? Every time I hear that song I wang to shoot someone.

Also I think the lyrics to Clay Aiken's song are ridiculous because they are about stalking someone. I can't remember exactly how it goes (and how embarrassing that I can even semi quote it), something like "If I was invisible, I would just watch you in your room...." EW creepy much?

Hell yes. Remember Independant Women? Guess Jay Z beat Beyonce's ass into submission.

Topic? Ive been listening to Elton Johns Tiny Dancer over and over because I love it, but honestly...

Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band
Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man
Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand
And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand

Pirate smile makes me think she has teeth rotten and missing...

This shit is bananas. B-A-N-A-N-A-S. This SHIT is BANANAS. B-A-N-A-N-A-S."

I mean, I even like the song but WTF Gwin?

[lefty]

My husband is freaked out by that song. Now, in the mornings, when he's getting his bowl of cereal, he starts chanting that b-a-n-a-n-a-s part.

What exactly is a Hollaback Girl? What is she talking about? Sorry if this is obvious. I hope this isn't one of those things that everyone knows and I'm the only loser who doesn't. Cut me some slack, people! I have kids under five. I'm not too up on pop culture nowadays.

I was in the grocery store the other day and "I've Been To Paradise (But I Haven't Been to Me)" came on and I just froze in my tracks. I couldn't move, so horrified I was by that horrible horrible song. The worst part is the part I never remember:

[spoken]
Hey, you know what paradise is?
It's a lie, a fantasy we create about people and places as we'd like them to be
But you know what truth is?
It's that little baby you're holding, it's that man you fought with this morning
The same one you're going to make love with tonight
That's truth, that's love......

[sung]
Sometimes I've been to crying for unborn children that might have made me complete
But I took the sweet life, I never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet
I've spent my life exploring the subtle whoring that costs too much to be free
Hey lady......
I've been to paradise, (I've been to paradise)
But I've never been to me

What the hell??

*dreamy sigh*

Ain't it just the best?
