Nonsense lyrics- do they happen in modern music

[Trug]

As an old gadgie my type of music ended in about 1980 or so. I remember in those days we did have some daft songs that made us smile. Lily the Pink was one of them.
So, for a bit of fun, what nonsense lyrics do you remember.
My starter for 10 are the following lines. What was the song and who sang it

"Who was that woman I saw you with, it was not your wife.
It looked suspiciously like someone I 've never seen in my life. "

 

[Scrug]

‘Slowly walking down the hall,
Faster than a cannonball’

 

[futureboy]

"So no-one told you life was gonna be this way"

shortly followed by...

"Your mother warned you there'd be days like these"

So which one is it?

 

[grumpyoldgit]

No no no no no no no no there's no limits. Have I missed a "no" there?

 

[LeeMiller]

Juxtaposition is a predisposition of a pacifist movement suppressing the argumentative

 

[Scrug]

Only time will tell if time is on our side

 

[smoggs03]

Some of those lyrics are knocking on 30yr old. .
Is that modern?

It is to me

 

[Norman_Conquest]

Catch a bright star and a place it on your forehead
Say a few spells and baby, there you go
Take a black cat and sit it on your shoulder
And in the morning you'll know all you know, oh

 

[RedAsABeetroot]

I couldn't stand this bland sound any more so I walked towards my deck to turn it off
All I could see was the B-side of the disc which had assumed a doughnut shape with the label on the outside rim
I reached for the arm which was less than one micron long but weighed more than Saturn and time stood still
I knew I had to escape but every time I tried to flee, the record was in front of me

 

[Merrykoala]

"Well I go out somewhere, then I come home again"

Not necessarily genius but definitely redundant

And some people called Johnny Borrel a genius

[Ignore_Alien_Orders]

Did you ever see a woman
Coming out of New York City
With a frog in her hand ?

 

[Ebor]

I think a thread about no nonsense lyrics would be briefer

 

[king_hellfire]

Are these lyrics nonsensical enough for you?

They’re from a great song.


But that's totally
But that's totally

A-billions of birdies squawkin' out loud
Talkin' in code to clams in the clouds
They send a secret message; they send it by worm
So vibratin' spiders will receive the word

But that's totally
Feather pluckn' insane
Ten million monkeys all pick up guitar
But nobody taught them how
Five thousand fishies rockin' really, really, really hard
Nobody taught them how
Check out chickie drivin' piggy's little blue car
Nobody taught him how
Mmm, yeah
Yeah
Peace, brother

Well, flies like to fly 'cuz they don't like to stay
They're buzzin' in the ears of the chicken all day
Chicken understands and he peck out the code
Send a subsonic signal through the snot in the middle of an elephant's long wet cold grey nose

But that's totally
Feather pluckn' insane
Ten million monkeys all pick up guitars
Nobody taught them how
Five thousand froggies rockin' really, really, really hard
Nobody taught them how
Check out chickie drivin' piggy's little blue car
Nobody taught him how

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah-yeah-yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah, said oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Yeah-yeah-yeah
Said oh yeah

Everybody supernova
Everybody supernova
Everybody supernova
Everybody supernova

Nonsense lyrics?
Quite poignant I reckon.

[Abel Tasman]

“Are we human or are we dancer” was voted the most confusing lyric line of alll time which cheesed off Flowers no end.

Beat me to it!


‘It was released as a single in 1972. Both the name of the song and its lyrics are gibberish but are intended to sound like English in an American accent.’
