Senseless lyrics

to quote Dylan Moran on lyrics “Funk Soul Brother” by fatboy slim

“You could dip a broom into diesel fluid , and shove the other end up my ****, and put mi inside an elevator with trampoline in it, and i would write better lyrics on the walls” :D:D:D

Some genius from Mr McCartney:

You should have seem me with the poker man
I had a honey and I bet a grand
Just in the nick of time I looked at his hand
I was talking to an Eskimo
Said he was hoping for a fall of snow
When up popped a sea lion ready to go

Chorus
Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go, let’s go
Down to Junior’s Farm where I wanna lay low
Low life, high life, oh let’s go
Take me down to Junior’s Farm

At the Houses of Parliament
Ev’rybody’s talking ’bout the President
We all chip in for a bag of cement
Ollie Hardy should have had more sense
He bought a gee-gee and he jumped the fence
All for the sake of a couple of pence

Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go, let’s go
Down to Junior’s Farm where I wanna lay low
Low life, high life, oh let’s go
Take me down to Junior’s Farm
Let’s go, let’s go
Down to Junior’s Farm where I wanna lay low
Low life, high life, oh let’s go
Take me down to Junior’s Farm
Everybody tag along

I took my bag into a grocer’s store
The price is higher than the time before
Old man asked me “Why is it more?”
I said “You should have seem me with the poker man
I had a honey and I bet a grand
Just in the nick of time I looked at his hand

Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go, let’s go
Down to Junior’s Farm where I wanna lay low
Low life, high life, oh let’s go
Take me down to Junior’s Farm

Let’s go, let’s go
Down to Junior’s Farm where I wanna lay low
Low life, high life, oh let’s go
Take me down to Junior’s Farm
Everybody tag along
Take me down to Junior’s Farm

Take me back, take me back
I wanna go there…

There are a good few Pink Floyd tracks where the lyrics ostensibly make no sense at all!

Paul

A song I used to love (oh the times when teenagers go through the emotions experiments :rolleyes:)

“I’m sick of this life, I just want to scream”

Lyrics that make sense?

A bit more vague?

The best song ever written,

Is this the real life-
Is this just fantasy-
Caught in a landslide-
No escape from reality-
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and see-
Im just a poor boy,i need no sympathy-
Because Im easy come,easy go,
A little high,little low,
Anyway the wind blows,doesnt really matter to me,
To me

Mama,just killed a man,
Put a gun against his head,
Pulled my trigger,now hes dead,
Mama,life had just begun,
But now Ive gone and thrown it all away-
Mama ooo,
Didnt mean to make you cry-
If Im not back again this time tomorrow-
Carry on,carry on,as if nothing really matters-

Too late,my time has come,
Sends shivers down my spine-
Bodys aching all the time,
Goodbye everybody-Ive got to go-
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth-
Mama ooo- (any way the wind blows)
I dont want to die,
I sometimes wish Id never been born at all-

I see a little silhouetto of a man,
Scaramouche,scaramouche will you do the fandango-
Thunderbolt and lightning-very very frightening me-
Galileo,galileo,
Galileo galileo
Galileo figaro-magnifico-
But Im just a poor boy and nobody loves me-
Hes just a poor boy from a poor family-
Spare him his life from this monstrosity-
Easy come easy go-,will you let me go-
Bismillah! no-,we will not let you go-let him go-
Bismillah! we will not let you go-let him go
Bismillah! we will not let you go-let me go
Will not let you go-let me go
Will not let you go let me go
No,no,no,no,no,no,no-
Mama mia,mama mia,mama mia let me go-
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me,for me,for me-

So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye-
So you think you can love me and leave me to die-
Oh baby-cant do this to me baby-
Just gotta get out-just gotta get right outta here-

Nothing really matters,
Anyone can see,
Nothing really matters-,nothing really matters to me,

Any way the wind blows….

One of the most successful recordings of the 60s.

We skipped the light fandango
turned cartwheels ‘cross the floor
I was feeling kinda seasick
but the crowd called out for more
The room was humming harder
as the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink
the waiter brought a tray

And so it was that later
as the miller told his tale
that her face, at first just ghostly,
turned a whiter shade of pale

She said, ‘There is no reason
and the truth is plain to see.’
But I wandered through my playing cards
and would not let her be
one of sixteen vestal virgins
who were leaving for the coast
and although my eyes were open
they might have just as well’ve been closed

By the way, if you’re giving them away can I have Elizabeth Fraser? 😀

They come in a package unfortunately, but I have managed to secure Simon Raymonde’s bass FX pedal as a seperate lot.

“Masturbate”???isn’t that when you get a room full of people with different opinions on one subject??

No that’s a board meeting and the colloquial form of the operative word doth apply ! 😉

Coldplay….once described as music for men who cry while they masturbate.
Sorry mods;)

I give you The Cocteau Twins ! 😮

Iceblink Luck. Wonderful stuff!

Evangeline’s got reasonably lucid lyrics, though.

Oasis – or at least those of their songs that I’ve listened to.

The Beatles – I am the Walrus, Strawberry Fields Forever (and probably others)

If you want profundity, listen to something like Leonard Cohen.

Senseless lyrics have been around for over 70 years to my knowledge, probably longer.

Tes makes sense to the English.
Senseless…..given that they drive one to suicide, how about Coldplay?

And, does anyone else have other example of songs with plain stupid lyrics?

The entire ‘Yes’ catalogue, for a start. 😎
