Bored , so here is a time wasting topic, lines in songs that make you cringe. Two for me -
1 - someone brought this up to me recently and now I can't listen to the song -
Morrissey - More You Ignore Me, the Closer I Get
"I will be In the bar With my head On the bar"
2 - Mclusky
"got more songs than a song convention"
-
anytime a word is used to rhyme with itself is rather painful.
I am just a sk8er boi, I said see yer later boi....
An old favourite is I am serious as cancer when I say rhythm is a dancer
A new one is, we have got 200 sofas.

that's not true. i've always enjoyed this line:
"Everybody's Rapping Like It's A Commercial Actin' Like Life Is A Big Commercial"
-beastie boys, pass the mic
-
"You were there like a blowtorch burnin'/ I was a key that could use a little turnin'" -Soul Asylum, "Runaway Train"
-
Soul Asylum's big comeback single on the album after the one with Runaway Train started with the line "They say misery loves company, we should start a company and make misery." Just painful to listen to. With one line they killed the band.

I've actually always liked that line. It takes me back to a warm, fuzzy place.

I'm dressed all in blue and I'm remembering you

Jack Johnson: just awful...what does this mean?
It's as simple as something that nobody knows that her eyes are as big as her bubbly toes...
-
hey GGW I like I'm dressed all in blue.....
Leave Rhett alone, he is going on honymoon tomorrow... Have fun.
"I am driving in my mini cooper and I am feeling soooper Dupa......"
Will someone please put Madonna out of her Mockney accented misery?

Everybody's here
Puke stinks like beer
This could be a city
This could be a graveyard
You stole my idea

I came into the world as a reject
Look into these eyes
Then you'll see the size of the flames
That are pullin on my past
Burnin on my brain
Everyone that burns has to learn from the pain
Hey, I think about the day
My girlie went ran with my pay
When fellas came to play
Now she's stuck with my homies that she fucked
And I'm just a sucker with a lump in my throat
Like a chump, hey
Should I be feelin' bad?
Should I be feelin' good?
It's kinda sad I'm the laughing stock of the neighborhood
And you would think that I'd be movin' on
But I'm a sucker like I said
Fucked up in the head, not!
And maybe she just made a mistake
And I should give her a break
But my heart will ache either way
Hey, what the hell, what you want me to say?
I won't lie, that I can't deny
I did it all for the nookie, c'mon
The nookie, c'mon
So you can take that cookie
And stick it up your.. yeah!
Stick it up your.. yeah!
Stick it up your.. yeah!
Stick it up your
Why did it take so long?
Why, did I wait so long, huh?
To figure it out, but I did it
And I'm the only one
Underneath the sun who didn't get it
I can't believe that I could be deceived
By my so-called girl, but in reality
She had a hidden agenda
She put my tender, heart in a blender
And still I surrender
Like a chump, hey
I did it all for the nookie, c'mon
The nookie, c'mon
So you can take that cookie
And stick it up your.. yeah!
Stick it up your.. yeah!
Stick it up your.. yeah!
Stick it up your
I'm only human
It's so easy for your friends to give you their advice
They'll tell you, just let it go
It's easier said than done
I appreciate it, I do, but
Just leave me alone
Leave me alone
Just leave me alone
And nothing gonna change
You can go away
I'm just gonna stay here
And always be the same
I did it all for the nookie, c'mon
The nookie, c'mon
So you can take that cookie
And stick it up your.. yeah!
Stick it up your.. yeah!
Stick it up your.. yeah!
Stick it up your

what is this Shite?
Black Plastic Bag
Who's paying your mortgage?
Daddy's dying.
Throw yourself on the body.
Take out your sharp teeth.
Line your lungs with noise then just sew it up.
In and out is like this it's like a fist.
You want the questions you got your answers down.
You want the answers, you got the face fleshed out.
The air is full of harmonies but is anyone even sleeping right?
Every town gets an Eiffel Tower, don't worry.
Every town gets an Eiffel Tower tonight.
Everyone is sleeping under one tonight.

The city is dark but we're not scared
Wrapped up in each other
Making loving out of nothing like the air supplier said

Belated congrats, Rhett & Celeste.
Have fun in Europe.

Oh and this
Lady Came from Baltimore - by Johnny Cash
I usually love Johnny Cash ... if you can't make it rhyme just use the
same word.
"The lady's name was Susan Moore, her daddy read the law.
She didn't know that I was poor, and lived outside the law.
Her daddy said I was a thief and didn't marry her for love.
But I was Susan's true belief, and I married her for love"
Johnny didn't write it, but he chose to sing it.
-
Thanks...
At least now we will know that GGW is the master imposter, and not me.

I thought
Celeste,
Art School girl
Dandy 01
was the master imposter. you always Fuck it up by posting the wrong thing under the wrong name.
-
Well perhaps we won't know that you are any kind of imposter.
But those wishing to prove they are not a figment of my imgination should post away while I am gone, since I won't see this board for 2+ weeks.

I am sure the Black Nerd will be posting from an Internet Cafe in Spain
-
And Henry Dark from a nude beach in France....
-
I have lost the passwords for the Instigator and Henry Dark.
I was never the Black Nerd to begin with.
I find it curious that an occasional post does pop up by the Instigator, but it's not me....must be we still have the occasional imposter.
Why doesn't this new board have the option to post pictures as part of your profile?

Sounds like a honeymoon for all of us...
-
I have to agree with you, Markie.
Take, for instance, this gem from Train:
Well she wants to live her life
Then she thinks about her life
Pulls her hair back as she screams
I don't really wanna live this life

Oh, and since I haven't been around much lately...
I'm digging the new board, and congrats Rhett & Celeste. Have fun on the honeymoon!

Yes, I second Markie. Repeated rhymes can destroy even the best of songs once they get in your head. One of my formerly favorite Wilco songs (A Shot In The Arm, off of Summerteeth) â??
We fell in love in the key of C,
We walked alone, down by the sea.
ARRGHHHH! How could they do this to me?

"got more songs than a song convention"
That happens to be one of my favorite lines from one of the best-written songs by a Welsh post-punk trio ever.
-
I had forgotten how badly this song by Todd Rundgren made me cringe until it came on the radio the other day...
Leroy, boy, is that you?
I thought your post-hangin' days were through,
Sunk-in eyes and full of sighs,
Tell no lies, you get wise,
I tell you now we're gonna pull you through,
There's only one thing left that we can do.
We gotta get you a woman,
It's like nothin' else to make you feel sure you're alive.
We gotta get you a woman,
We better get walkin', we're wastin' time talkin' now.
Leroy, boy, you're my friend
You say how and I'll say when
Come and meet me down the street
Take a seat, it's my treat
You may not ever get this chance again
That empty feeling's just about to end.
Talkin' 'bout life and what it means to you,
It don't mean nothin' if it don't run through
I got one thing to say, you know it's true
You got to find some time to get this thing together.
Talkin' 'bout things about that special one
They may be stupid but they sure are fun
I'll give it to you while we're on the run
Because we ain't got time to get this thing together, 'cause we
Got to get together with a woman who has been around,
One who knows better than to let you down,
Let's hope there's still one left in this whole town,
And that she'll take some time to get this thing together.
We gotta get you a woman
And when we're through with you,
We'll get me one too.

Every single line on R.E.M.'s Monster is horrible. Starts with "What's the frequency Kenneth is your Benzadrine, uh-huh" and goes from there. How did it go so wrong?
-
Been used waaaaaaaaaay to many times but here it is,
"Come on baby, don't say maybe"
-
25 whores in the room next door............and i need a more........

watchout Poorlulu....
"I am looking for the can in the candy store"
(((From the same song)))
I love vision thing.
-
"but she never lost her head, even when she was giving head"
"my buick's out back, but the ride ain't free"
"he says in his bedroom voice, come honey let's go make some noise"
"o'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming"
there's a few to keep you going.
-
"whack for the daddy 'ol there's whiskey in the jar"
-
"The bed is on fire with passionate love,
the neighbours complain about the noises above,
but she only comes when she's on top"
I still say they band is excellent, but that song needs to be completely deleted from their files if you know what I mean....the crying shame is, it's their most well known song in the states.

Unlike you I have never thought that I might be gay.
Make of that what you will.
I just dont find penis sexually arousing, not even yours.
I dont find need to discredit or ignore music or any other entertainment just because the person who created it has odd choices in sexual partners....
I mean if I did I would never be able to listen to Boy George or Soft Cell ever again.
No I mean listen to the smiths and read oscar Wilde, that is much less unhip.

you see Germanic one, that was a joke.....
Go away and think about it.
Incidentaly "cold as ice" is the only song I know that I am sure is foreigner, other than I wanna know what love is (I want you to show me).
