The 100 worst lyrics of all time

It's in your hands, America
April 20, 2006 7:48:54 PM
Warrant, 'Cherry Pie'

Warrant's "Cherry Pie" is a possibility in our poll

VH-1, that paragon of list-making, recently set out to find the greatest lyric of all time. And after their exhaustive poll, which included asking Jon Bon Jovi and Noel Gallagher for their two cents, they discovered that "One" by U2 featured the best lyric: "One Life / With Each Other / Sisters / Brothers" was number one, followed by the words of the Smiths, Nirvana, the Who, Radiohead, Marvin Gaye, Eminem, Bob Marley and, er, Coldplay and Robbie Williams (not in that order.)

And all that's fine, and some of them were really good choices, giving us hope for America. But where was Ol' Dirty Bastard!?

Anyway, as we are fond of doing, we'd like to give the opposing view. And after you all complained so loudly about not being able to give your two cents and vote for the 100 Unsexiest Men in the World list, we’ve compiled some of our favorite nominations (from polling Phoenix music editors and writers) of some of the worst lyrics of all time, in no special order. These are just the nominees for the worst lyrics ever. We're leaving the voting to you. And you can use the comments to write in your own suggestions -- we're sure there are plenty we're missing. Results of the voting will appear in the future in this space.

To clarify, we're not indicting these songs, necessarily. Some of them are good. And also, we're not saying the entirety of these songs' lyrics are bad - just these specific lines we're singling out.

And, before everyone starts in on us: yes, we know, it's hard to write a song, we've never written any popular songs, these people sleep with beautiful women and/or men, yadda yadda yadda. Right, we're aware. Save the keystrokes, Mr. Aiken.

Warrant, "Cherry Pie"
“Swingin' in the living room / Swingin' in the kitchen / Most folks don't / 'cause they're too busy bitchin' /  Swingin' in there 'cause / She wanted me to feed her / So I mixed up the batter / And she licked the beater.”
The reason most people don’t swing? Because they’re too busy bitching. Makes sense to us.

LFO, “Summer Girls”
“New Kids On The block had a bunch of hits / Chinese food makes me sick/And I think it's fly when girls stop by for the summer, for the summer.”
We would print out the whole song, but we threw up after rhyming “speakin’” with “Alex P. Keaton.”

Avril Lavigne, "Sk8r Boi"
“He was a boy, she was a girl / Can I make it any more obvious.”
M’am, could you make it a bit more obvious? We’re not all sophisticated like y’all Degrassi-watching Canadians. By the way, it's been pointed out before, but we've never known a "Sk8tr Boy" who had anything resembling girl trouble.

311, "Down"
"'Cuz we're dope and change like a chameleon / and my channel whenever that whack show Real Worldis on"
We put this on the list only to defend the honor of Judd Winick.

Eminem, "Ass Like That"
"I ain’t never seen an ass like that / The way you move it, you make my peepee go DOING DOING DOING"
We think one 'doing' would have sufficed, no?

Train “Drops of Jupiter”
“Can you imagine no first dance, freeze dried romance five-hour phone conversation /The best soy latte that you ever had . . . and me”
First we’re travelling in space all fine and dandy, then he starts name-dropping fads from the year 2000 as if it’s a VH1 special and he’s Hal Sparks. Soy Lattes? Tae Bo? Yes, Venus did blow our minds.

Spice Girls, “Wannabe”
"If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends”

Ok, no guy is going to say no to that (at least if Gerri turned the lights off.)
“Make it last forever friendship never ends”
Okay, girl power, we get it. Don’t really see how it has anything to do with us guys, but fine.
“If you wanna be my lover, you have got to give”
Alright, now it’s getting a little annoying. I’m fucking all four of your friends, like you told me to in the first line. What else do you want?
"Taking is too easy, but that's the way it is.”
Slam your body down and zigazig ah, indeed. And yeah, we know, 1996 called and they want their jokes back.

Bruce Springsteen, "Glory Days"
"He could throw that speed ball by you / make you look like a fool"
Bruce, we hate to bring this up, because we think you're great and everything, and it might sound a little nitpicky and all, but it's just that . . . um . . . well, a fastball is what Roger Clemens and Randy Johnson throw and a speedball is what John Belushi took to kill himself. Unless you were trying to make a prophetic comment about Doc Gooden's career, in which case you did a great job.

How about the chorus from Neil Diamond's "I Am I Said?" "I am, I said, to no one there, and no one heard at all. NOT EVEN THE CHAIR." I didn't know it was so hard to find a lyric that rhymes with there. Guess I was wrong.

Another 311 classc line from "Come Original" :A warning to the crews out there who think they're hot if you're not original rockers you will get shot -- end. Wow! I mean I'm a big fan, but come on. I think they are so embarrassed by those lyrics, that the first 2 place I went had them omitted. Yeah guys, might be a good to idea to forget about that one altogether.

crazy town's "butterfly" "Such a sexy,sexy pretty little thing Fierce nipple pierce you got me sprung with your tongue ring and I ain't gonna lie cause your loving gets me high" "Hey sugar momma, come and dance with me The smartest thing you ever did was take a chance with me So, what ever tickles your fancy Girl it's you like Sid and Nancy" first, they probably wouldn't know a sex pistol's song if it came and slapped them in the face. second, these are truly the worst lyrics of all time. i win.

Gwen Stefani's Hollaback Girl. If not the chorus line of "I ain't no hollaback girl!" then of course we have, "This shit is bananas! B, a n a n a s!" Or anything by Mindless Self Indulgence. Most of their lyrics are so horrific I can't be bothered to repeat them, but try from their songs Faggot "I been denied all the best ultra sex!" or What Do They Know: "My tendency's never returned / Received like a big fat jerk / I been silly, but not absurd / Cuz you know that's what I heard."

Aw, man, somebody beat me to the "This Shit's bananas, b-a-n-a-n-a-s!" line! I had the misfortune to be stuck in a movie theater with half a dozen 10 year old boys singing to that on the movie preview video. I will never recover. I would also have to nominate "Against the wind" by Bob Seger. I mean, it's sooooo loooong and the same line over and over...we were eating in Taco Bell and my husband said "My god, are you still running against the wind?!" after about 5 minutes of pure agony. Also, anything by Michael McDonald. The man needs to get the mush out of his mouth and ENUNCIATE!!!

Speaking of pure agony . . . the worst lyrics ever goes to "Black Velvet" by Alannah Myles. It pains me to even type the words: "Black velvet and that little boy smile, Black velvet with that slow southern style, A new religion that'll bring you to your knees Black velvet if you please." Pardon me, I have to go throw up.

Full lyric (tie): "In the Year 2525," Zager and Evans; "D.O.A.," Bloodrock (inarticulate flower-power fatalism/millennialism at its worst) A heavenly (?!) sample of each: "In the year 7510 If God's a-comin', he oughta make it by then. Maybe he'll look around himself and say. Guess it's time for the judgment day." "Life is flowing out my body Pain is flowing out with my blood The sheets are red and moist where I'm lying God in Heaven, teach me how to die" (repeat after me: "Man, that's HEAVY!!!") Chorus: "Kung Fu Fighting," Carl Douglas "Everybody was Kung Fu fighting, Those kids were fast as lightning In fact it was a little bit frightening, But they fought with expert timing" Title line (tie): "(Love Is) Thicker Than Water," Andy Gibb (uh, isn't EVERYTHING thicker than water?!) and, "In a Gadda Da Vida," Iron Butterfly (some humans have evolved a little more slowly than Adam and Eve, alas ...)

POSTED BY doxieman122 AT 04/22/06 2:14 PM
Worstest song lyrics goes to New Kids on the Block for "Tonight," a song that references all of their hits. "Remember when we said, girl, please don't go, and how I'd be loving you forever, taught you 'bout hangin' tough as long as you got the right stuff, didn't we, girls, ooh, didn't we, girls, aah?" You SURE did NKOTB, you dropped the knowledge hardcore. "Remember when we traveled round the world, there were a lot of people and girls, fan mail from everywhere showed us how you care, didn't it, girls, ooh, didn't it, girls, aah?" It SURE did NKOTB, It sure did represent the mad love we had for you.

POSTED BY Tuhcoolyuh AT 04/22/06 2:37 PM
I think the song is done by The Killers, and everyone knows it because it's so damned catchy, but so damned obnoxious. "I've got soul, but I'm not a soldier" over and over again. I got news for these guys, just because 'soldier' is pronounced with 'soul' in it, doesn't make for good lyrics.

POSTED BY Birdie Alaska AT 04/22/06 5:25 PM
The first bad line I thought of that's excluded from this story is Player's "Baby Come Back:" "Baby come back, any kind of fool could see/There was something in everything about you" And then there's Boston's "More Than a Feeling" with the line, "I turned on some music to start my day."

Yes, the "I've got soul but I'm not a soldier" is from the Killers. Any line from Vanilla Ice's "Ice, Ice Baby." "We make it hype and you want to step with this / Shay plays on the fade, slice like a ninja / Cut like a razor blade" or "Then I flow like a harpoon daily and nightly" I thought it was bad when I was a teen ager. I heard it again a couple years ago and laughed myself silly as I actually listened to all the words.

I have to nominate R. Kelly's Ignition Remix. I had been telling my friend Erin about its ridiculous lyrics for weeks. Then one fateful night I was driving her home and flipping through the stations when there it was. I almost deafened her when I screamed, "THIS IS IT!!!!!" We laughed so hard listening to it. Apparently the song sans remix wasn't good enough; he tweeked it just so and delivered this: It's the remix to ignition Hot and fresh out the kitchen Mama rollin that body got every man in here wishin Sippin on coke and rum I'm like so what I'm drunk... Then add in the "beep, beeps" and the "toot, toots" and you have a fucking masterpiece. Thanks R. Kelly for the memory. Thank you so much.

Lots of good stuff here, but without a doubt the single worst song every written is from the Fletch soundtrack, called "Fletch, Get Outta Town" by Dan Hartman: Get outta town (get outta town) Just get outta town Go north to Alaska east to Atlantic City or south to Rio Almost as far as you can go Get outta town Just rent a car (get outta town) So they won't know where you are

Ha! While we're talking soundtracks, how about Delbert McClendon from the "Groundhog Day" soundtrack - "I'm Your Weatherman." The lyrics in question (and I'm going from memory here) go something like "If precipitation is drowning all your plans / just call information up / ask for the weatherman"

I nominate "On My Own," sung by Michael McDonald and Patti LaBelle, written by Burt Bachrach and Carol Bayer Sager, for this verse: "So many promises Never should be spoken Now I know what loving you cost Now we’re up to talking divorce And we weren’t even married." What the heck does that look like, talking about divorce BEFORE you're married?

Glaring omission fellas: Jermaine Stewart's magnificent plea to all the slutty chicks: "We don't have to take our clothes off to have a good time, oh no. We can dance and party all night, and drink some cherry wine, uh huh." Now, I'm not a sommelier but I'm pretty sure wine is made from grapes, not cherries. Perhaps this could be the abstinence anthem for those right wingers/bible belt zombies who think they can stop teens from screwing. Sadly and ironically Jermaine didn't follow his own advice as he died from AIDS.

Def Leppard, Pour Some Sugar On Me: "Step inside, walk this way / You and me babe, Hey, hey!" Guess it's tough finding something to rhyme with way. And then, "I'm hot, sticky sweet / From my head to my feet." it wasn't enough to parade around in earrings and frayed acid-washed jeans, you also had to cop to being a walking cumshot?

The Red Hot Chili Peppers song - I forget the title, but you all know it. "I know, I know, for sure .. ding ding dang ding ding ding don ding don dang ...". Funny cause their attitude is probably 'That's great! Just leave that, don't even try to come up with another stanza!" Still annoys me, tho.

Social Distortion- "Reach for the sky" "I find myself now thinking twice, I never thought about no future, its just the roll of the dice." and "You can run you can hide, just like Bonnie and Clyde" I was just listening to this song and thought the lyrics were awful.

Hawthorne Heights, Ohio Is For Lovers. "Because you kill me. You know you do, you kill me well. You like it too, and I can tell. You never stop until my final breath is gone." Urk. Could this BE more clichéd? Hawthorne Heights, Decembers 'You don't even have to speak because I can hear your heartbeat Fluttering like butterflies searching for a drink.' Oh, come ON! That's a terrible analogy, a really weird stupid twist on a common cliche. Grrr. And to finish... 'Please slow down girl We're moving way too fast for their world We gotta make this last.' I believe the Spice Girls used these lyrics a few years before you. The only difference was that everyone liked them and only Jesus likes you. Bad luck, Hawthorne Heights. Next time, just throw the album and yourselves off a cliff. It's better for your fans in the long run.

I realize that picking on Oasis' lyrics might seem a bit like shooting fish in a barrel, but Liam's first foray into writing was simply astounding. Uber-cliche rhymes, inane observations, bizarre queries (toddlers playing with plastercine?) and the nasty 'new dad' sentimentality. "Little James/You live for your toys/even though they make noise/Have you ever played with plastercine/Or even tried a trampoline/Thank you for your smile/You make it all worthwhile to us" "Sailed out to sea/your mum you and me/You swam the ocean like a child/Life around us was so wild/Thank you for your smile/You make it all worthwhile to us"
