The Museum of Embarassingly Bad Song Lyrics.

[pixiecrinkle]

Because I'm bored -- another post!

So last night automat76 and I were discussing things we have strong distaste for, and I brought up the idea of starting a list of horrific song lyrics.

My initial ideas of things to include were:

-"a mole, digging in a hole, digging in my soul" from U2's "Elevation"
-"your body is a wonderland" by john mayer (this song makes me gag, in a way it doesn't make most people, because I find it exceptionally sappy & trite)

automat brought up:
-The use of the word "moot" in an 80s song we heard recently (the name is escaping me -- what was that?)
-"All I wanna do is make love to you" by Heart

I have since decided to add:
-"Teenagers, Kick our Butts" by Dar Williams (and I *love* Dar Williams, but this was not a good song)

So else wants to play curator? Nominate the sappy, overly contrived, or just the bad stretches to make the rhyme....

yeah, that Blondie song is a definite.


Along those lines, the entire rock opera "The Iron Man" by Pete Townsend goes in here. There's a song which has a very similar "eating up cars" theme (makes sense in the plot) called "I Eat Heavy Metal". It's sung by a giant robot. What?
