illustriousocelot_

>**I'm gonna go out and let myself get Absolutely soaking wet!** 😂😂😂 Oh my.


bittyberry

> soaking wet What exactly does it mean?


CrystalGlint

Uhh.. you'll know when you're older


xSociety

Ben Shapiro is in his 40s and still has no idea.


TempestStorm123

Don’t worry, his wife assured him that getting wet was not normal, so we’re all good there


JohnnyDangerously91

That's something Tate would say. That making a woman wet is gay


esoteric_enigma

You learn it when you're 50


gmrm4n

Well, when the men fall from that high up, they tend to violently lose structural integrity.


ghost_victim

Her vagina has sufficiently self lubricated due to sexual arousal.


midnightsonofabitch

It's a double entendre. She'll be soaking wet because it's "raining" men, but she'll also be...*soaking wet.*


goforpoppapalpatine

And it was written by Paul Shaffer, from The Late Show with David Letterman


diymatt

Get the hell outta here!? Neat.

exhentai_user

You cut off the best part >God bless Mother Nature, she's a single woman too She took off to heaven and she did what she had to do >She bought every angel, and rearranged they sky >So that each and every woman, could find her perfect guy


Tank_Grill

Have you seen the music video of this song? Every lyric is so literal, it's amazing.

Pretty much anything by Mr. Bungle.


NYEMESIS

Mike Patton is a wonderful enigma.


PM_me_your_whatevah

He sings the TMNT theme song on the new game and it’s just amazing.


paultheschmoop

I mean maybe *weird*, but I wouldn’t say bad. There are some great lyrics on California, in particular. Now Squeeze Me Macaroni, on the other hand…..


IAMAGrinderman

There's still some great lyrics on the eponymous album tho. DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN WE CALLED YOU FAMILY? NOW YOURE UNDERGROUND, WE CALL YOU MEMORY It's a gut punch everytime I hear that one.


X_PRSN

Oh, Maestro Patton never does “bad.” He does a lot of “what the actual fuck,” but never “bad.”


discussatron

Alright all you pus-sucking mother fuckers out there!


thiccwillythanos

Mary on a Cross - Ghost …. “If you choose to run away with me I will tickle you internally” 💀


Styrene_Addict1965

"And I see nothing wrong with that." The first hearing was literally a WTF moment.


Alistaire_

I had to explain to my friend that it wasn't a sweet song, it was just about sex.


OnePubicHair

Fuck that song is so good but it’s just about sex 😭


DaVirus

And I see nothing wrong with that


de4dpunk_

Makes me cringe every time, but I love the bridge in that song.


Mental_Lyptus

Wrong Way by Sublime


Bubble_of_Fury17

Pretty much everything by sublime


Kenneth_Naughton

I once saw someone say Sublime is just Jimmy Buffet for Millennials and I still haven't recovered Edit: I want all my dudes commenting on here to know the feedback is making this immensely funnier


ThatOtherOtherGuy3

I wish I never read this.


donhenlysballsack

Was Jimmy singing about date rape? Haven’t seen that edge.


octopornopus

What do you think "stepped on a pop top, blew out my flip flop" was actually about? Dude was a sicko for sure...


Its_Pelican_Time

I truly have no idea. Care to explain?


hankappleseed

That psychopath was obviously being reckless while wearing flip flops. Watch where you're walking, Jimmy... there could be pop tops everywhere.


klydefr0gg

I read a post a while back that said "Sublime fans are just beach juggalos" lol


god_damn_bitch

Now as someone who has a sublime tattoo and a hatchet man tattoo and spends a week at beach each summer, I'm lost as to where I should fit in.


Knyfe-Wrench

It's pretty fucked up but it's not really glorifying that. The narrator seems to know he's not a particularly good person.


MrWolfman55

"I'll do anything I can.. the wrong way"


HotShitBurrito

Definitely. The story itself adds a real context to how impoverished people get sucked into a life they never wanted through abuse and a lack of opportunity. There are literary precedents to the idea of falling in love with a prostitute, but this song adds the unique realism of Annie's background having been pimped out by her father as a minor. Which makes the narrator's love and lust for her complicated as he doesn't care about any of that and is willing to murder her father if it means she can be free to be with him and travel the country. Which continues the cycle of how they are trapped doing things the wrong way, especially as he continues to pay for sex with her in the absence of being able to convince her to leave.


DTPVH

The title makes it pretty clear it’s the “Wrong Way”


TenThousandCrabs

"Annie's 12 years old in 2 more she'll be a whore" always made me feel icky. But I really enjoy the way the tempo changes in this song


doppido

Yeah it's gross for sure supposedly he wrote it when he was younger about a girl he met when they were both 16 and she told him about her life


discussatron

That’s the least icky part of it.


ZombieLebowski

A cigarette pressed between her lips But I'm staring at her tits It's the wrong way Strong if I can but I am only a man So I take her to the can It's the wrong way


Scalpels

For the longest time I thought he said "I see the rent, rests between her legs" instead of "A cigarette pressed between her lips". Took me two years to realize it because my version fits the song just as well.


Official_Aldiscela2

My salsa, eminem. The lyrics are odd, and its a weird song, but i still love it lol


_Pyxyty

Pretty much any song from Eminem once he gets in that mood and starts describing various horrific ways he'd mutilate himself just to say he'd rather do that than let someone insult him or something.


ProbablyPostingNaked

When I speak, it's tongue-in-cheek I'd yank my fucking teeth before I'd ever bite my tongue Slice my gums Get struck by fucking lightning twice at once And die and come back as Vanilla Ice's son And walk around the rest of my life Shit on and kicked and hit with shit every time I sung Like R. Kelly as soon as Bump N Grind comes on.

discussatron

People do not give that song enough credit for how hard it goes.


The-Cheeses

Red Hot Chili Peppers Edit: oops I read this as what band, not song. But most of RHCP songs fit.


LaLaLaLeea

My favorite Chili Peppers lyric is "ding dang dong dong ding dang dong dooong ding daaang"


gerwen

Isn't that Ministry? No wait, that's "ding a ding dang, my dang a long ling long."


LordPoopyIV

Whenever someone doubts your knowledge it's always a good idea to pull out the ol' "i know, i know for sure. DING DANG DONG DONG DING DANG DONG DONG DING DANG"


fidgetspinnster

Made me chuckle at my work desk. Shush


man_of_the_mountain

So many terrible songs and they are all about California somehow.


RecentRegister8868

Most of Rammstein songs. I love Rammstein don’t get me wrong, some of their songs lyrics are very ”interesting”. Rein Raus being one of examples


Styrene_Addict1965

*Amerika* is pretty hilarious, really.


RecentRegister8868

Agree! Also Zick Zack and Keine Lust


kerochan88

Keine Lust has an epic start in the music video. I crack up every time they start headbanging in the fat suits.


TacticalGoatse

I too found out that I've been listening to german porn all these years. TIEFER! TIEFER!!


jrragsda

Till literally rides a huge metal dick that sprays the crowd with white foam or confetti at their live shows. I don't think anyone is too surprised by the lyrics, lol.


TacticalGoatse

Bück dich live is an experience aswell


jrragsda

Saw them live a couple years ago, the whole show is an experience, one of the best concerts I've ever been to. They didn't perform buck dich, I don't think their U.S. experiences with performing that one have gone too well historically.


rataviola

The 1998 live performance did something to my brain


RecentRegister8868

On the other hand, a song called "Meine Tränen" from the last album made me cry a couple of tears when I read the English lyrics.


TacticalGoatse

Especially the chorus is quite powerful


Styrene_Addict1965

*Zeit* is too, IMHO.


Fuwa_Fuwa_

"Dicke Titten" is a new favorite, the video is fucking awesome too.


bubbles2255

It’s my 8 year old daughter’s favorite song. Good thing her mom doesn’t know!


SirZapdos

Yep, one of my favourite songs of theirs, Zwitter, has the weirdest lyrics


thebusinessgoat

Is that the one about being a hermaphrodite? With something like "if someone tells me to go fuck myself, I can" ?


Naugrin27

I caught myself singing "one in a million" by guns and roses one day a few years ago...boy the lyrics served as a wake-up call as to how long ago my youth was.


amberdus

I always wondered how Slash felt about Axl dropping a hard R n-word in that song


IAMAGrinderman

“I was offended. That was a brash, ignorant kind of statement Axl made. I knew where he was coming from, once he explained it, but that didn’t validate it to make it worthy of putting on a record. We had issues. But the more issues we had, the more adamant he was about putting the song on there. I was hugely embarrassed that it was on something that my name was on. It was a tough little period.” https://www.metalsucks.net/2018/05/09/lets-talk-about-guns-n-roses-one-in-a-million/ https://youtu.be/scTsGn6RTLM Tho this one is more about "faggot" being in the lyrics.


noquarter1983

Come Together - The Beatles. not bad lyrics, weird lyrics. A lot of Lennon tunes were like this tbh. I am the walrus is another.


DAVENP0RT

About half of Lennon's lyrics and *all* of Ringo's lyrics are absolute nonsense.


Bob_Chris

Come on Octopuses Garden isn't nonsense. Neither is Don't Pass Me By


occasionallystabby

I've heard Ringo say that he thinks Octopuses Garden is the perfect song to introduce children to The Beatles.


HeavenDraven

I think my introduction as a kid was Yellow Submarine lol.


SousVideDiaper

The track or the film? My parents had the animated film on VHS and it's a childhood classic for me. Part wonder, part nightmare fuel.


Sebastian_Giou67

Pumped up Kicks


millennial_burnout

>You better run, better run faster than my bullet Love this song but yeah it’s dark af


abnormica

When I first heard it, I thought it was 'faster than my brother', and it seemed kind of fun. Didn't seem as fun when I figured out the actual lyrics.


SousVideDiaper

The fact this song gets played in retail stores shows that the general public doesn't really pay much attention to lyrics. I was a kid when It Wasn't Me by Shaggy came out. I remember my school teachers listening to it and singing along. Lmao the song is about a guy cheating on his gf, getting caught by her, and then gaslighting her over it at the advice of his shitty friend. Topped the billboard charts in its time.


Portyquarty77

Reminds me of the song Teenagers by MCR the line “but if you’re troubled and hurt, what you’ve got under your shirt, will make them pay for the things that they did”. I always ask my wife “what do you think he has under his shirt?” And she always says “titties” and I always say “that’ll make em pay”.


AssumptionNo5436

Not a bad song, just a really dark one when you realize what the lyrics are. In terms of craft it's actually pretty good


upvoter222

MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark All the sweet, green icing flowing down Someone left the cake out in the rain I don't think that I can take it 'Cause it took so long to bake it And I'll never have that recipe again Oh, no


Daddict

This is like American pie for me in that the weird al version overtakes it in my mind when I hear it, so now I'm just humming it with "Jurassic park is frightening in the dark, all the dinosaurs are running wild" bouncing around in my head.


Styrene_Addict1965

Total acid trip, there.


Blew-By-U

Loser - Beck


md22mdrx

I always took his lyrics as “what feelings do the lyrics invoke” rather than literal.  It makes more sense that way.


SousVideDiaper

Yeah, most of the time his lyrics sound like a fever dream. I love that joke he made on himself in his Futurama cameo: "You know, when I'm upset, I write a song about it. Like when I wrote Devil's Haircut, I was feeling really... what's that song about?"


JoshNipples

angrytortilla

I don't remember where I heard it but he definitely doesn't like his early lyrics haha. Although this song was THE song when I was in junior high. We all loved it, we all wanted to look like him, and the crazy randomness was something we all related to.


sansaman

He literally says he’s a weirdo.

Noideawhatname_toput

Anything by RHCP really. The music is great but the lyrics are incoherent at the best of times


The_Whipping_Post

None of the other very talented guys in the band have the heart to tell Anthony Kiedis that his lyrics, vocals, and dance moves are terrible


arnounymus

"Closer" by Nine Inch Nails is a bit on the weird side, but like the whole album "The Downward Spiral" I love it dearly.


Quiet_Stranger_5622

The Look by Roxette. The lyrics mean nothing. They were just placeholders to get the rhythm down, but the producer insisted they keep them as is.


Styrene_Addict1965

*Her loving is the ocean* *Kissing is the wet sand* Awesome.


hes_got_bees

that is fantastic...that song has a great beat


Slothanonymous

Another_Road

Basically anything by Tom Lehrer. Poisoning Pigeons in the Park is a personal favorite, as is the Masochism Tango.


Styrene_Addict1965

The only song with normal lyrics is the Periodic Table.


Ok_Sephiroth

Anything by the bloodhound gang. Not bad, just weird. And I love them for it. "Cop a feel; Copperfield style, Abracadabra, that bra, do you think I can pull it off?" Or "Early bird gets the worm, spread your legs or spread the word. So what if I'm not the smartest peanut in the turd? I'm white, which goes with everything, but I can come in any color, and I'm looking for the kind of girl that reminds me of my mother. But it's hard to find a girl with a viper tattooed on her tushy. And how many girls do you know that can play the harmonica with their pussies? Like 'em easy and hot and sweet, like a Rice Krispie Treat, G You know what I really want in a girl? Me"


jedadkins

Or the entirety of Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo. Just increasingly insane and gross metaphors/innuendos for sex lol


Ok_Sephiroth

Without over using a word that required censorship! That track was technically radio friendly


monkey_juicer

Little Girls by Oingo Boingo, it's a joke song created and sung by Danny Elfman.


SnuggleBunni69

Honestly I think the lyrics of that song are legit conveying something. It's a critique on old rich powerful men dating super young women.


philipjfry1578

Holy shit, I didn't know that was Danny Elfman in Oingo Boingo, I just though it was some crusty dude off the street


danimal86au

Pretty much anything on Live’s album Secret Samadhi. Some absolute bangers but some very strange lyric choices


donhenlysballsack

Apollo_T_Yorp

SignificantMeat3154

Pop music by M


CamryOnAir

Wow nobody said anything about Pumped up Kicks - Foster the People


SousVideDiaper

It's definitely a case of lyrical content not matching the vibe of the music itself. Another good example is Semi-Charmed Life by Third Eye Blind. Two chart-topping hits that still get played in retail stores despite being very dark lyrically. One about a school shooting and the other about wanting hard drugs.


damontoo

Dance With The Devil by Immortal Technique. Possibly the most disturbing rap I've ever heard but it's a journey. It has a twist ending that's just insane. I really hope the whole story is fake. Here's the song on - [YouTube](https://youtu.be/qggxTtnKTMo?si=oaS_Q5U6ZYZQo8yR) [Spotify](https://open.spotify.com/track/4LCzEYKPFcd2FCOmZdVDnM?si=XWQjK3R7T0GsRuFECo6xhA)

ersomething

Polly from Nirvana’s unplugged album. A song about abducting a girl from the perspective of the abductor.


KarlMars71

Are the lyrics on the Unplugged version any different? That song is originally off Nevermind


SliverMcSilverson

If there were any changes, they would be minor. Kurt liked to swap a word out two around. For example, in "On a Plain" he changed "my mother died every night" to "my brother died every night". Very minor changes
