Terrible lyrics in great songs

[MyCheeryPearlTraybake]

I have been to Southampton but never been to Scunthorpe

As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus over the Serengeti.

Just doesn’t fit the rhythm somehow 🤷🏼‍♀️

OMG @Kittybelle123I was just coming on to say that 😁

@AuntieDolly 🙌🏻 great minds!! there must be more bad lyrics out there, but this one obviously sticks out 😂

It's also geographically inaccurate. Kilimanjaro doesn't rise from the Serengeti.

It does if you’re the lead singer of Toto! And that’s good enough for me, i’ll be bound.

‘You can windsurf into my life’. Oleta Adams’ Get Here.

@everywhichway thank you for verifying my feeling even more 😂

'This blanket is freezing, it's been out in the hall'.

Honestly, Snow Patrol, love you dearly, even some of your more obscure lyrics but that one? Nope.

He says please bring me my wine. He said we haven't had that spirit here since 1969. Or something like that. Wine is not a spirit!

I love the song, just that lyric…….. it jars! Nonetheless still on my playlist 🥰

It’s a great song to sing in the car and the shower.

"I don't want to see a ghost
It's a sight that I fear most
I'd rather have a piece of toast"

WTF??
