Lyrics that piss me of

[Fishface77]

I've just heard a song and one of the lyrics goes along the lines of

"....and we make love right there on your best friends couch...."

This has pissed me right of!

1. Why on your best friends couch?
2. Stains? Do you think they put a towel down first?
3. Smell? We can all smell sex!
4. What if he walks in on you?

Or what's the ad at the moment moment with the song that goes 'you're so cute, I wanna wear you like a suit'? Sounds like some weird serial killer on the loose!

Knock three times! The whole song has a really stalkeresque feel too it

How could I forget? Pretty much the entire song "Wives and Lovers" pisses me off. Just waiting for one of the more misogynistic current artists to do a cover version, probably with added swearing.

Hey, little girl, comb your hair, fix your make-up
Soon he will open the door
Don't think because there's a ring on your finger
You needn't try any more
For wives should always be lovers too
Run to his arms the moment he comes home to you
I'm warning you
Day after day, there are girls at the office
And the men will always be men
Don't stand him up with your hair still in curlers
You may not see him again
Wives should always be lovers too
Run to his arms the moment he comes home to you
He's almost here
Hey, little girl, better wear something pretty
Something you wear to go to the city
Dim all the lights, pour the wine, start the music
Time to get ready for love
It's time to get ready for love
Yes, it's time to get ready for love
It's time to get ready, kick your shoes off, baby

The whole of Ironic by Alanis Morissette.

'Isn't it ironic, don't yout think?'

No. No, I do not. It is merely unfortunate. The only ironic thing is that you think that this song is ironic, when it's not!

Great thread btw.

Feminism has ruined a lot of songs for me

I'm trying to educate my DDs to listen critically to lyrics and to question the dreadful, man-pleasing, sex-obsessed shit

You want to see/hear some bloody awful lyrics.

Listen - and weep.

😂😂😂😂😂

Actually, I meant the whole song is ironic, just not the bits in it

The song with all the names in it.
I can't even remember the order
Summat like

Jennifer Annabelle Phillipa sue Deborah lalalala I forget your name...
May be beautiful south.

Also McDonald's McDonald's Kentucky fried chicken and a Pizza Hut.
FUCK THE FUCK OF

@Fishface77

I think that's called 'Song for whoever.'

"Everywhere you go, always take the weather with you..."

Say what?!

Also, one of the lyrics by Madness drives me up the wall. Don't get me wrong, I adore Madness, always have, and I think they write some brilliant, thought-provoking lyrics, but if anything that makes,

"Jaunty old George, newsagent on the corner,
He was closed today, maybe gone to mow the lawn-er"

even worse. Is it supposed to be so bad it's good? Or did they need to hurry up and finish the song and they just couldn't be arsed?

Telstar "this video is not available." 😢

If you like it
You shoulda put a ring on it

"It" is a woman, a person. So offensive.

Oh God, and all of The Human League's 'Don't You Want Me?'

But don't forget, it's me who put you where you are now
And I can put you back down too

OH RIGHT, WELL THAT'S SO ROMANTIC THEN, ISN'T IT? I'm definitely reconsidering my decision to GET THE FUCK AWAY YOU OBSESSIVE CREEP. What part of 'I don't need you' did you not understand?

'I know you've changed your mind. You'd better change it back or we will both be sorry' - sounds like a threat to me Phil.

'If I was' by Midge Ure. Oi, Midge NO! 'If I WERE, Midge, If I Were.

So many people use that song to claim that 'If I was you' is the correct way of saying it. Drives me INSANE!

All of Lose Control by JLo/LL Cool J is just nursery rhyme nonsense.
By the end they've run out of lyrics and just start going "Zuh Zuh Zuh"
Dreadful!

'Man to man that's wrong scorn them'

Anthem of my secondary school. Thank god 'vybz kartel' is now in prison for the rest of his life. Pig.

'Bodies in the bodhi tree' wooow Robbie, you referenced Buddhism. You is so cultured.

Wives and Lovers is one of the most requested songs of certain types of weddings, and other functions. seriously.

You see musicians flinch at the prospect of playing it and band leaders asking organisers if they are sure.

In fairness though it's usually as a joke, all involved are happy about.
Still very cringey though.

‘Don’t want to close my eyes, don’t want to fall asleep cos I’d miss you and I don’t want to miss a thing’

Can you imagine sleeping with this man...’WILL YOU JUST BLOODY GO TO SLEEP AND LEAVE ME ALONE, IVE GOT WORK IN THE MORNING!’

Talking of stalkers, is anything weirder than ‘Downtown Train’ by Rod Stewart ?

Oh I think that I found myself a cheerleader
She is always right there when I need her

Omi. Hate it. All about what she does for him and not a word about what he does for her.

One of these threads seems to appear on here every week. And it's usually the same songs mentioned.

Oh my goodness...I am sure someone else has mentioned this but because day kids are rolling their eyes every time I have to hear it on the car radio.

Ed Sheeran...again.

"12 years old" so far so mediocre.

Then a few sentences in...

"I was younger then."

Yeah...I know Ed...you just said you were 12...it didn't need to be stated!!!!

Arggggghhh!

(Disclaimer...I can't remember the actual age in the lyrics I have mentally blocked it out!)

RunYouJuiceBitch well played

A lot of songs bug me. Some already mentioned.

There's one from linkin park called battle symphony which has the line "my eyes are wide awake"
No. You are wide awake. Your eyes are open!
(I still sing along though)

I remember putting on headphones in a shop to listen to the new Cranberries album which had just been released. When it started with this:

Suddenly something has happened to me
As I was having my cup of tea

I took the headphones off.
