Lyrics that don't make sense

[witchhunt]

Pretenders (In the middle of the road is a private cul de sac.)
Aren't they normally at the end of a road?

Free (Took her home to my place, watching every move on her face.)
Just doesn't sound right.

Van Halen (I think the clock is slow. I don't feel tardy.)
Wouldn't the clock be fast?

[byndrsn]

That song "Your So Vain" (or whatever) - what the hell is she talking about when she says "There were clouds in my coffee"? I've always wondered about that.

[byndrsn]

Oh, and in THe Lion Sleeps Tonight, why are the background singers constantly singing "My Weiners Wet My Weiners Wet My Weiners Wet"???

[mistikalvalkrie]

Pretty much any song I've ever heard from America minus "Sister Golden Hair".

[Mikey Wax]

Oh, and in THe Lion Sleeps Tonight, why are the background singers constantly singing "My Weiners Wet My Weiners Wet My Weiners Wet"???

That is hilarious. You officially ruined that song for me. That's all I'm going to think now when I hear it.

[nickisrb]

"Mmm bop dow bi do wop dippy dow wi doo dop."
MMMBop-Hanson.

Dude, if hearing that song initially didn't ruin it for you, then you have problems. haha

[CCdrums]

"Blinded by the light"....the most hideous lyrics I've ever heard in my life. If I came up to you and said...."Hey man, I just wrote this song and here's how one of the verses goes....And little Early-Pearly came by in his curly-wurly and asked me if I needed a ride..." you'd say to me....uh, dude....take another bong hit...get some sleep and call me when you're serious.

I hate that song and I think Springsteen must have been high when he wrote it. He should be slapped for that one....

Amen to that....

But this :

"Blinded by the light"....the most hideous lyrics I've ever heard in my life. If I came up to you and said...."Hey man, I just wrote this song and here's how one of the verses goes....And little Early-Pearly came by in his curly-wurly and asked me if I needed a ride..." you'd say to me....uh, dude....take another bong hit...get some sleep and call me when you're serious.

I hate that song and I think Springsteen must have been high when he wrote it. He should be slapped for that one....

got me thinking, so I checked it out. Here's the wiki explanation:

"Springsteen wrote "Blinded by the Light" after most of the others on Greetings were finished and is also one of the few songs for which Springsteen wrote the words before arranging the music.

The song's swiftly-paced, jumbled lyrics are stream of consciousness descriptions of a series of bizarre individuals he met while a young artist in New Jersey. Playing small venues, such as bars along the Jersey Shore, Springsteen recounts various characters from these events. He alludes to Vini "Mad Dog" Lopez, then his drummer, in the opening line "Madman drummers", as well as the "silicone sister" (bartender, possibly referring to an erotic dancer) who encourages him to play a particular, unknown song. United by the chorus: "And (s)he was blinded by the light/cut loose like a deuce, another runner in the night/Blinded by the light/(S)he got down but (s)he never got tight, (s)he's gonna make it (alright) tonight", the song goes on to chronicle Springsteen's trouble to get the bar patrons, who rarely cared about or even heard the music, to get excited by his performance."

OK - sounds bizarre. Ha - man... Here's teh complete, official lyrics:


Madman drummers bummers and Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat
In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps his way into his hat
With a boulder on my shoulder feelin' kinda older I tripped the merry-go-round
With this very unpleasing sneezing and wheezing the calliope crashed to the ground
Some all-hot half-shot was headin' for the hot spot snappin' his fingers clappin' his hands
And some fleshpot mascot was tied into a lover's knot with a whatnot in her hand
And now young Scott with a slingshot finally found a tender spot and throws his lover in the sand
And some bloodshot forget-me-not whispers daddy's within earshot save the buckshot turn up the band

And she was blinded by the light
Cut loose like a deuce another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
She got down but she never got tight, but she'll make it alright

Some brimstone baritone anti-cyclone rolling stone preacher from the east
He says: "Dethrone the dictaphone, hit it in its funny bone, that's where they expect it least"
And some new-mown chaperone was standin' in the corner all alone watchin' the young girls dance
And some fresh-sown moonstone was messin' with his frozen zone to remind him of the feeling of romance

Yeah he was blinded by the light
Cut loose like a deuce another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
He got down but she never got tight, but he's gonna make it tonight

Some silicone sister with her manager's mister told me I got what it takes
She said I'll turn you on sonny, to something strong if you play that song with the funky break,
And go-cart Mozart was checkin' out the weather chart to see if it was safe to go outside
And little Early-Pearly came in by her curly-wurly and asked me if I needed a ride,
Oh, some hazard from Harvard was skunked on beer playin' backyard bombardier
Yes and Scotland Yard was trying hard, they sent a dude with a calling card,
he said, do what you like, but don't do it here
Well I jumped up, turnedaround, spit in the air, fell on the ground
Asked him which was the way back home
He said take a right at the light, keep goin' straight until night, and then boy, you're on your own

And now in Zanzibar a shootin' star was ridin' in a side car hummin' a lunar tune
Yes, and the avatar said blow the bar but first remove the cookie jar we're gonna teach those boys to laugh too soon

And some kidnapped handicap was complainin' that he caught the clap from some mousetrap he bought last night,

Well I unsnapped his skull cap and between his ears I saw
a gap but figured he'd be all right

He was just blinded by the light
Cut loose like a deuce another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
Mama always told me not to look into the sights of the sun
Oh but mama that's where the fun is

Amen to that....I hear ..
Old vagina...it's all streched out and it's ohhh so stinky...you should wipe when you pee.
THAT SONG IS EVEN BETTER WITH ALTERNATE LYRICS.

[yodelinghippie]

Beck, mainly Loser, and pretty much every other song he wrote.

"In the time of chimpanzees, I was a monkey, with butane in my veins so I'm out to cut the junkie."

Wha-huh-hut?

"Dogfood stalls with the beefcake pantyhose"

That's nothing compared to some of his songs that didn't get radio play.

[DirtySanchez]

How about everything Alanis Morrisette says is "ironic".

None of the things she says are Ironic, just shitty things, and a shitty song.

[DrumAndDestroy]

How about everything Alanis Morrisette says is "ironic".

None of the things she says are Ironic, just shitty things, and a shitty song.

the only thing ironic is that she got so popular

ZING!!!

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o


WTF Metallica???

[moxham123]

Whiskey In The Jar is sung using some Irish Celtic words and originated in the 17th century but who knows what they mean?

The Metallica version is closest to the Thin Lizzy version.
