Now listen, Baby,
And try to understand
That tying you is fine
And whipping you is grand.
Now I just can't tell you how much fun it's been.
You make me feel twenty-five again.

But I can't leave my wooden wife for you, sugar
I got a split level house with a wonderful view, sugar,
A couple next door who do the things we do, sugar,
And every Saturday we sit around the pool.
If I should meet you on the street someday,
I hope you'll understand me if I look away,
It isn't that I'm ashamed about you and me
But I've got to consider my morality.
And I won't leave my wooden wife for you, sugar,
I got a split level house with a wonderful view,
sugar,
Three sweet kids and Yorkshire terrier, too,
sugar.
And I just couldn't stand it when you came late from school.

I was going to say that there was something creepy about Ringo singing "You're Sixteen", but with this song in the thread that's like complaining that your soda wasn't sugar-free after eating four buckets of fried chicken and a tub of ice cream.

I always hated that song (in general I'm a Beatles fan so it's not that). It's sophomoric. Even Lennon admitted as such in later years.

And you don't have to be wealthy to imagine no possessions - everyone's obviously gonna do great living like a member of the !Kung tribe.

It's actually:

"Imagine no possessions;
I wonder if you can"

Still...

Sometimes when we touch, the honesty's too much...

I thought we'd agreed to secrecy

Probably already mentioned but I'll add my voice to the choir. These lyrics from Humne Rait Pe:

Lab pe ruki jo tu baat hain
Dil bhi bhigaa de tu barsaat hain
Nasha jis ka nahi tujhe
Tu mere liye vo jaam ban gayaa
Aftaab mehtaab sa ab lagane lagaa tu
Tu hi subah meri aur sham bann gaya
Humane rait pe yunhi pheri thi ungaliyaan
Kya karu itfaak se tera naam bann gaya

oh well, something was easy

and something else "isn't hard to do" its the same thing

"What doesn't kill you makes you stronger" - too many songs.

Michael Jackson's 'Earth Song' is chock full of terrible lyrics. Just going to quote one though.

"What about elephants? Have we lost their trust?"

Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words, I don't just say
And nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you
Everyday for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters

More like: "all these words I just string together cause they sound good... except for "trust I seek" which makes me sound medieval and shit"

Green light, Seven Eleven
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
You don't smoke, don't even want to
Hey now, check your change

U2, "Stay (Faraway So Close)". I recently found out that it is part of the soundtrack to a movie, and might actually make sense in that context. Without that knowledge it's a dumb line.

Boom boom boom boom
I want you in my room
Let's spend the night together
From now until forever
Boom boom boom boom
I wanna go boom boom
Let's spend the night together
Together in my room

Lyrics take from "Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom!!", by the Vengaboys. An eminently poetic passage ruined by the rhyming of "Boom boom boom boom" with "boom boom". Strikes me as lazy

Lyrics that just rub you the wrong way
