Now don't get me wrong here, SLEEP are one of my favourite bands ever. Many of my other posts can back this up. And even this submission is my favourite song/album of theirs. I know the sheer awfulness of these lyrics is also why they are so great, and why the song is so great in a way, but holy crap. I suppose any of their songs would suffice. Anything about druids and serpents always brings a tear to the eye. But this, DOPESMOKER is the king of all Sleep lyrics. Check it out.

Laugh, cry, cower in fear, or all three at once. I'm never too sure. Bless the stars for Sleep.

Lenny kravitz is responsible for an alarming amount of stinkers in the lyrics department. You could really pick just about any of his songs and the lyrics will be awkward at best. This new single of his that i can't seem to get away from is a good example of one of his steaming piles of lyrical shit. Enjoy...

Lenny Kravitz - Lady

I'm crazy for this little lady
I'm freaking for my little baby
'Cause she makes me feel good
She's so fine

Don't need all my other ladies
I'm beggin' for this little lady
'Cause I tell you she's cool
She's divine

I know she's a super lady
I'm weak and I've gone hazy yeah

I'm crazy for that lady
She's chic but she's not shady yeah
Sophisticated lady
And she makes me feel good
She's so fine

Never knew there was such a lady
That would make me want to straighten
Out my life at this time but I find
I'm thinkin' 'bout this pretty lady
I would love her good as my own baby (?)
'Cause you know she's no fool
She's refined

I know she's a super lady
I'm weak and I've gone hazy yeah

I'm crazy for that lady
She's chic but she's not shady yeah
Sophisticated lady
And she makes me feel good
She's so fine

Yeah
Don't you know she blows my mind
All the time
'Cause she makes me feel good
Like a real woman should
Yeah
She's so mine
Yeah

I'm weak and I've gone hazy yeah

I'm crazy for that lady
She's chic but she's not shady yeah
Sophisticated lady
And she makes me feel good
And she makes me feel good
And she makes me feel good
She's so fine

Yeah
Don't you know she blows my mind
All the time
And she makes me feel good
Like a real woman should
Yeah
All the time
Yeah
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah

For the lyrics to the hooky chorus of 'Make Em' Say Uhh!', Master P wrote:Make em say unggggggh (unggggggh) unggggggh (unggggggh)

Na-nah na-nah (na-nah na-nah)

Make em say unggggggh (unggggggh) unggggggh (unggggggh)

Na-nah na-nah (na-nah na-nah)


I can't help it. That song is so fucking stupid that it's fun to shout that chorus at the top of my lungs when i'm fucking around with my homies. I agree though, that song and everything out of NO LIMIT Records is shit. Don't Tell Master P I said that, dude will kill my ass.

In Voivod's defense, English is not their first language.
Police Teeth: we like Void so much, we decided not to sound like them.

Pick any band you like, write their lyrics down, and look at how stupid they look in a vacuum.


I disagree.

Exhibit A: Fugazi.

Exhibit B: Elvis Costello.

It's possible to write lyrics that sound good as well as look good on paper.

I never served you

Linus Van Pelt, methinks you struck lyrical gold here when i read your jewel snip-its. upon further research my suspicions were justified. here are some more nuggets of wisdom, from the tea-drinking folkster-gone-rave pop princess:

Jewel!! wrote:Those flings, those strings you've got to cut,
So get out on the streets, girls, and bust your butts.


or better yet, more songs about liquids:
You were always brilliant in the morning
Smoking your cigarettes, talking over coffee


or cat food?

And stop thinking about what your sister said
Stop worrying about it, the cat's already been fed
Come on darlin', let's go back to bed
"The best argument against democracy is a five minute conversation with the average voter."

This song makes me want to hammer nails into my eyes.

One! Two! Three!

To every broken heart in here
Love was once a part, but now it's disappeared
She told me that it's all a part of the choices that your making
Even when you think you're right
You have to give to take

But there's still tomorrow
Forget the sorrow
And I can be on the last train home
Watch it pass the day
As it fades away
No more time to care
No more time, today

But we sing
If we're going nowhere
Yeah we sing
If it's not enough
And we sing
Sing without a reason
To ever fall in love

I wonder if you're listening
Picking up on the signals
Sent back from within
Sometimes it feels like I don't really know whats going on
Time and time again it seems like everything is wrong in here

But there's still tomorrow
Forget the sorrow
And I can be on the last train home
Watch it pass the day
As it fades away
No more time to care
No more time, today

But we sing
If we're going nowhere
Yeah we sing
If it's not enough
And we sing
Sing without a reason
To ever fall in love

Well we sing if we're going nowhere
Yeah we sing if it's not enough
And we sing
Sing without a reason to ever fall in love

But we sing
If we're going no where
Yeah we sing
If it's not enough
And we sing
Sing with out a reason to never fall in love
To never fall in love again




This is the worst part:

But there's still tomorrow
Forget the sorrow
And I can be on the last train home


For our sake, let's hope that train is going one-way to Eastbourne.
