<p>“So Happy Together” by the Turtles is unfortunately stuck in my mind, including the moronic line:</p>
<p>The only one for me is you
And you for me</p>
<p>Helloooo! That’s the same thing, dummy!</p>
<p>“Having my baby— what a lovely way to say how much she loves me.”</p>
<p>I dare any of you to top that.</p>
<p>I noticed that lyric (in Happy together) a long, long time ago, but if you listen to their other lyrics, there’s a sly undercurrent of silliness that I think is on purpose. For instance, another hit of theirs, “Eleanor”, has in its chorus “you’re my pride and joy et cetera”. </p>
<p>Pretty sure they’re not as dumb as you think.</p>
<p>“Yummy yummy yummy I’ve got love in my tummy”</p>
<p>Eww.</p>
<p>" … I wanna take a ride on your disco stick" and the rest of this stupid song. Bleh…</p>
<p>Well, it’s alright to be little bitty
Little hometown or a big old city
Might as well share, might as well smile
Life goes on for a little bitty while.</p>
<p>–Yuck.</p>
<p>Also, this one bugs me, though I do like the Jason Mraz song overall:</p>
<p>Listen to the music of the moment people, dance and sing
We’re just one big family
And it’s our *God-forsaken *right to be loved, loved, loved, loved,
loved…</p>
<p>—Should be “God-given” right imo.</p>
<p>Stupid? Yes! But still one of my favorites!! :D</p>
<p>Some people call me the space cowboy, yeah
Some call me the gangster of love
Some people call me maurice
Cause I speak of the pompitous of love</p>
<p>Okay, but the Space Cowboy song is now stuck in my head. (YOu might thing this is a bad thing, but in an earlier thread I managed to get a BARNEY song stuck in my head, so I’ll have to thank you.)</p>
<p>“Muskrat Susie, muskrat Sam do the jitterbug down in muskrat land and they shimmy, Sammy’s so skinny…”</p>
<p>There is nothing like living through the 70’s to give you material like this. A friend and I once compiled a “worst song list” ( and I am going to look for it).</p>
<p>Oh yeah, some song called “Rocky”</p>
<p>“Rocky I never had to die before, don’t know if I can do it”</p>
<p>I can get the Barney song out of your head, just think about Lambchop.</p>
<p>"This is the song that never ends.
It goes on and on my friends.
Someone started singing it not knowing what it was,
and they’ll continue singing it forever just because, "</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>You’re right. I never noticed that before.</p>
<p>“You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.”</p>
<p>Bleh–pompous mumbo jumbo.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>That’s what that line is???</p>
<p>^^^
What does that mean, anyway?</p>
<p>"MacArthur’s Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet, green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain</p>
<p>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"</p>
<p>I can’t stand these lyrics. They seem so dumb to me.</p>
<p>Silly lyrics but I had a huge crush on Richard Harris so I forgive him.</p>
<p>MacArthur Park is about the stupidest song every written. At least yummy, yummy, yoummy was tuneful.</p>
<p>Fallgirl quoted Muskrat Love.</p>
<p>I first heard that song sung by its author, Willis Alan Ramsey, on his self-titled disc. Was interesting and stuck in my head, kinda quirky and off-beat the way he sang it, and fit right in with some of his other tunes on the disk.</p>
<p>Then those schlockmeisters Captain and Tennile sacharinized it, it went godawful viral, and RUINED THAT SONG FOREVER!!!</p>
<p>I will never forgive them for that blasphemy.</p>
<p>Kei</p>
<p>I may get some disagreements here, but the one line from a song that drives me up the wall (and I’m forced to hear it often because H is a John Cougar Mellancamp fan) is: “Suckin’ on chili dogs outside the Tastee Freeze.”</p>
<p>HATE that. Try chewing on the hot dog, it’s easier to eat that way.</p>
<p>“Run, Joey, Run”</p>
<p>All at once I saw him there,
Sneaking up behind me (Woman’s voice: Watch out!)
Then Julie yelled, “He’s got a gun!”
And she stepped in front of me</p>
<p>Suddenly, a shot rang out
And I saw Julie falling!
I ran to her, I held her close
When I looked down, my hands were red
And here’s the last words Julie said…</p>
<p>Daddy please don’t
It wasn’t his fault
He means so much to me
Daddy please don’t
We’re gon…na get… mar…ried…</p>
