Default Worst Song Lyrics of All Time

There are tons, my vote for the moment goes to Speak, the Hungarian Rapper with his song "stop the war"

2003, I pray for God they people make the right decision
I don't wanna war. I just wanna peace. Stop the war. Check this.
I hope my black brothers feel the same like me
Dre, Snoop, Puff, L, Tupac Shakur, rest in peace. He was the best. My respect (yeee, c'mon)

I hate terrorists, and I understand you.
September 11, I'll never forget you. Rest in peace
Catch the bad man, stop your plan, bin Laden, thank Allah.
Yee c'mon. Stop the war. That's right.
Chorus:

Sometimes people make a war, don't know what is for (business)
Say you stop the war (yee c'mon, once again)
Sometimes people fight a war, don't know what is for (business)
Say you stop the war (yee that's right, c'mon)

I don't wanna war, I just want to live and love each other
My family, my friends. Nobody wants war. Life is short
Yee, c'mon, that's right. Check.

They just simple people, want simple life. Simple land, simple thing.
We have so many places. World is big. A place enough.
That's right. C'mon. Yee.

Don't make war any more. Show the right way. I pray. Don't kill each other
I don't wanna war. Stop your business. I pray for God, stop the war.
Yee, c'mon, that's right.
Chorus:

Sometimes people make a war, don't know what is for (business)
Say you stop the war (Yee c'mon, once again)
Sometimes people fight a war, don't know what is for (business) Say you stop the war (Yee that's right, c'mon, together)

We don't wanna war. Takacs Tamas, Varga Miklos, Bebe, Naszi,
My respect, Speak. I'll be back. Peace.

Oasis has a tendency to write meaningless or just plain idiotic lyrics, but Champagne Supernova takes the cake.
Quote:
How many special people change
How many lives are living strange
Where were you when we were getting high?
Slowly walking down the hall
Faster than a cannon ball
Where were you while we were getting high?

Some day you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova in the sky
Some day you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova
A champagne supernova in the sky

Wake up the dawn and ask her why
A dreamer dreams she never dies
Wipe that tear away now from your eye
Slowly walking down the hall
Faster than a cannon ball
Where were you when we were getting high?

Some day you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova in the sky
Some day you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova
A champagne supernova in the sky

Cos people believe that they're
Gonna get away for the summer
But you and I, we live and die
The world's still spinning round
We don't know why
Why, why, why, why

How many special people change
How many lives are living strange
Where were you when we were getting high?
Slowly walking down the hall
Faster than a cannon ball
Where were you while we were getting high?

Some day you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova in the sky
Some day you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova
A champagne supernova in the sky

Cos people believe that they're
Gonna get away for the summer
But you and I, we live and die
The world's still spinning round
We don't know why
Why, why, why, why

How many special people change
How many lives are living strange
Where were you when we were getting high?
We were getting high
We were getting high
We were getting high
We were getting high

I'll just list a few bands/styles that have the worst lyrics I've ever read.

1. Staind - Their lyrics are almost always depressing like they were written so that even the passing 4th grader could get the "Please feel sorry for me" message and suddenly feel the need to be addicted to painkillers.
2. Saliva - Same as Staind.....Just watered down.
3. Almost all Gangsta rap songs - Just when you think that lyrical content couldn't get anymore dumb.....Please... put on a gangsta rap album and this will drag your IQ straight down to 0 with every other rhyme. All of these songs consist of 5 things -1. Words that don't exist in a Websters Dictionary, 2.Degrades women, 3. Murdering people, 4. Smoking blunts, 5. How to get paid by being a pimp or drug dealer.
4. Blur - I got my head checked...by a Jumbo Jet? What? I got my head done.....When I was young? WTH? is this english?

I'll add to this later but this is what I've got off of the top of my head

Agreed, a stupid perspective indeed. Especially considering that most of the time that comment comes from the mouth of fans of bands like AC/DC, who's lyrics aren't exactly a positive message either. Since when has rock been tame and rap been evil? Just because you crackers can't relate doesn't mean what they're rapping about doesn't occur.

Awful.

I'm not even going to touch the gangsta rap thing.

Not understanding lyrics doesn't make them bad.

Speaking of Staind...
Quote:
And you bring me to my knees, again
All this time that I could beg you please, in vain
All the times that I felt insecure, for you
And I leave my burdens at the door

I'm on the outside
I'm looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
'Cause inside you're ugly
Ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you

All this time that I felt like this won't end
It's for you
And I taste what I could never have
Was from you
All those times that I tried
My intentions
Full of pride
And I waste more time than anyone

I'm on the outside
I'm looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
Cause inside you're ugly
Ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you

All the times that I cried
All this wastin
It's all inside
And I feel all this pain
Stuffed it down
It's back again
And I lie here in bed
All alone
I cant mend but I feel
Tomorrow will be okay

I'm on the outside
I'm looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
Inside you're ugly
Ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you
^ If you could look up 'hideous song' in some kinda MP3 dictionary, it'd play this song.
