[Music] Irritating Lyrics

[Eric Potts]

“People think I’m insane because I am frowning all the time” : Black Sabbath , Paranoid .
I have worked in psychiatry for over 30 years , and frowning is not a part of any of our diagnostic criteria.
Anything that annoys anyone else ?

From the same album, and, don't get me wrong, War Pigs is one my favourite songs. However:

Generals gather in their masses,
Just like witches at black masses.

has always irked me because of the repeated rhyming word. Alright, enough of the Geezer Butler bashing.

Anything by Texas for the same reason:

Stand
Man

I disliked most Abba lyrics as they were usually always delivered with a Scandinavian lisp.

At Waterloo Napoleon did surrender

Apologies in advance for the pedantry but I offer The Dream Academy - Life In A Northern Town

And the children DRUNK lemonade

Aagghhhh!

Many of Oasis’ lyrics are fairly laughable.

Once Radio 6 get their claws into a new song that ticks their boxes they play it to death, a recent case in point the dreadful Nadine Shah with ‘Goats for Love’

‘Ladies for babies and goats for love
Ladies for babies and goats for love
She never could give you enough
Ladies for babies and goats for love’

'You'll never walk alone' irritates the hell out of me - but only when sung at Anfield

Des’Ree - Life:

Oh, I get the shivers
I don't want to see a ghost,
It's a sight that I fear most
I'd rather have a piece of toast
And watch the evening news

Utter garbage.

Just let me staple the Vicar.

Why would you want to do that?

'Shaddap You Face' was a source of unadulterated irritation in so many ways.

Mentioned this on the Oasis thread.

It's funny that Liam has turned out to be a better lyricist than his brother. Who'd have thought it...

Won the award for "Worst Lyrics Ever" when Mark and Lard (think it was them) had a vote/competition about it years ago on Radio 1.

She was a great sport and appeared on the show to accept it. Said she wrote it in about 10 minutes and never thought it'd be a hit.

I have a love/hate relationship with that tune as I actually think it's quite good, despite the appalling rhyming.

And she's got a great voice.

It’s genius. Wish I could come up with a line like that.
