However, the worlds quota has been consistantly exceeded since the inception of 'Pop' music.
Bad lyrics, though always readily avalible, are not limited to the top 40 tracks...
The number of respected musician and song writers, who, havnt, in their time written at least one song containing a dodgy lyric or two must surely be readily countable on digits of one hand...
Which are the lyrics that REALLY suck?
Lyrics that are either so bad that nothing short of the burning of the writer and all knowledge of them, will stop the otherwise resulting Armageddon...
Or that are so bad, that alike the infamous 'Plan 9' they are actually quite funky?
Just a couple that srping to mind...
Its just another Manic Monday.
I wish it was Sunday.
Because thats my Funday.
Bangles, Manic Monday
I'm afraid of the dark,
Especially in the Park
In the dark.
Gabrielle, some track or other.
Any other ideas?

Uh-uh! In the past five seconds I have learnt how to be a Psychiatrist and i can now describe the lyrics in this song. They mean:
He's happy, so he's feeling glad. This is because he has got the sun in a bag - he's glad he has managed to do that without getting burnt. Then he says that in the future he wont be useless anymore, like he is now.
Happy?
"NO"
I got sunshine, in a bag,
I'm useless, but not for long,
the future is coming on.

Quality song but the lyrics are completely nonsensical!

This was by Desiree, from possibly the most poorly written song of all time. Other amazing rhymes include: Hope I don't see a ghost, I'll go and have a piece of toast.
No bull, that's real. Even Vic and Bob's pop act Man-date had better lyrics than that.
"... I also want to live with you."
