Sometimes Lyrics are very, very, very stupid. Sometimes a writer thinks their being witty and clever, and end up writing something that when you hear it sounds hilarious or just down right disturbing. We've all heard examples of this at some point I'm sure, so I've started a thread to discuss dumb lyrics. I'll start off with a doozy from last year. Jason Derulo's "don't wanna go home" contains the following line; "From the window, to the wall." Windows - generally speaking - are attached to walls Mr Derulo, so unless your in a club with a huge mirror on one side of the building, you're describing a very small space. In the same song he also says; "Turn the lights low because we're about to get blown." ...there is no way I can take that other than the filthy route... I could go on and on, but anyway, if you hear a lyric in a song that makes you go 'WTF?!' post it here for us all to laugh at.  |

"Greetings, gentlemen!
I've got my oven open right now!
"Would you like to heat it up?"
"Yes, please!"
Set it on fire and fill it up immediately!" - Kurumi Ponchio (Japanese translation of the lyrics)
And this is just the first few lines. There's way more WTF lyrics, some of which are not shareable via forums. XD But darn it, its a catchy song! X3

Lmao that is silly but I try not to judge lyrics in other languages because of the language and cultural barrier. That and from what I understand Japanese music doesn't work the same way ours does - as in it just has to SOUND good rather than make sense.
Oh another one me and Yuki like to make fun of a lot;
"Zip your lip, like a padlock." Ke$ha 'Blah, Blah, Blah!'
If I have to explain what's dumb about that line, then... um... seek help.

That's true. But I do understand the Japanese, so it catched me off guard from time to time. XD I still loves the song though. :D
LOL I remember that line. I think she just wanted to have the lyrics flow with the music though. Could be wrong too. XD

That's... really not an excuse for her not understanding how a padlock works... XD

"W-Why are you breathing so heavily? Is this what you call love? Ah! I'm just kidding! Please don't eat my socks~" (Me: WTF? Socks? o.o) This song is a quick one that'll make you laugh. Not that it's really stupid, but it certainly is funny. XDDD Not to mention this song has "flat chest" repeated through a part of it six times and it's like the quickest song in the world. XDDD EDIT: Haha. Yea, Kesha is so smart. *sarcasm*  |

"By every silent scream we make..."
LOL Scream's aren't silent. I just thought that was pretty stupid. XD

Silent screams are when someone is calling out for help but they're not heard. Like in a dream sometimes when you go to scream and no sound comes out.

I got one that always particularly got on my nerves:
"Came around after dark
you are nothing but a lark
know I snuck in like a narc
I knew I had to leave my mark"
That's a line from "Naked Eye" by the band Luscious Jackson. Every time that second line came up, I just had to grit my teeth. AUGH it is so clunky! This is like 5th grader poetry!
