An odd title for a subject, but I thought it would be fun to post the most odd lyrics from songs, so here goes
"I seem to have lost an important part of my brain somewhere, somewhere in a field in Hampshire"
from 'sorted for E's and wizz', by Pulp
-
Cant remember the song but it has the line...
"He packs his lunch in a sunblest bag and the children call him bogey!"
I think its called dignity?

Prince..."Starfish & Coffee, Maple Syrup & Jam, Butterscotch Clouds, Tangerines & a side order of Ham...if you set your mind free baby, maybe you'd understand" :-s

I used to drive a Fiat Panda - now a lime green Cadillac.
Guess my story goes to show not all the 'devils' own' dig black.
-
from The Smiths...The Queen Is Dead, about getting into her residence...
" So I broke into the palace, with a sponge and a rusty spanner"

"So I climbed onto the back of a giant albatross, and flew off through a crack in the clouds"
Traffic, Hole in my shoe

"Just tryin' to put the punk back into punctured lung" from one of the Kaiser Chief's songs.
"All the world seems in tune on a spring afternoon,
When you're poisoning pigeons in the park" -- Tom Lehrer

The sunshine bores the daylights out of me...

Hmm, so many:
They Might be Giants: They Might be Giants
To make the merry-go-round go faster
So that everyone needs to hang on tighter
Just to keep from being thrown to the wolves

They think I am crazy
But I know better
It is not I who am crazy
It is I who am mad
Didn't ya see the crowds
You can't take it from me now
I've had this ice cream bar since I was a child
People always trying to take it from me
Why won't they leave me alone?

Thirty days have Septober
April, June, and Nowonder
All the rest have peanut butter
All except my dear grandmother
She had a little red tricycle
I stole it.. hahaha
I am in love with my little red tricycle
It has pedals, and a seat that has springs
And wheels that have spokes
That don´t speak ´til they´re spoken to
And a little bell that can ring
<ring><ring>See? <ring><ring>See?
Thirty days have Septober
April, June, and Nowonder
All the rest have peanut butter
All except my dear grandmother
She had a little red tricycle
It´s mine now!
When I´m riding my little red tricycle
Why do people always stop and ask me
"Why must you ride on that little red tricycle?
Act your age, you know you´re forty-three."
I didn´t really steal the tricycle from my grandmother
It followed me home

Our country reeks of trees
Our yaks are really large
And they smell like rotting beef carcuses
And we have to clean up after them
And our sadle sores are the best
We proudly wear womens' clothing
And seering sandblows up our skirts!
And the buzzards, they soar overhead
And poisonous snakes will devour us whole
And our bones will bleach in the sun
That's it!
And we will probably go to (censored)
And that is our great reward
For being the
Ro-oy-oy-al
Canadian Kilted Yaksmen!
C'mon everybody!

killer by the tiger lillies:
I could've been a killer
Who ate his victims' flesh
I could've eat them rotten
I could've eat them fresh

Rather annoyingly I can't quote the most bizarre lyrics I know ... they are not really family friendly :oops:
However ... for those who are brave the song titles are :
Pyosisified (Rotten To The Gore)
Festerday
Fermenting Innards
Foeticide
Splattered Cavities
Oxidised Razor Masticator
I still can't beleive we used to cover some of those and I actually *knew* all the words .. sheesh I must be getting old :(

My brain is in the cupboard,
above the kitchen sink
Its not in my head,
so i dont have to think
I cant remember the band name at the moment :?
Maybe "Peter & The Test Tube Babys" but i cant be sure
:D
-
:) Well, Syd Barrett is the master of the bizarre lyric, songs about Terrapins and Effervescing Elephants etc. Nearly everything I listen to is a bit strange, how about "flying tea pot from outer space" - Gong/Hillage. It is only memorable for me because it is sung repeatedly over a groovy space jazz backing. Or "Its a long day's flight until tomorrow" - Electric Prunes.

More Tom Leherer and parts of this one are just stuck in my head. To be honest I suspect most of his songs would be ight at home in this topic, maby not as weird as some but still pretty bizzare
When you attend a funeral,
It is sad to think that sooner or'l
Later those you love will do the same for you.
And you may have thought it tragic,
Not to mention other adjec-
Tives, to think of all the weeping they will do.
(But don't you worry.)
No more ashes, no more sackcloth,
And an arm band made of black cloth
Will some day nevermore adorn a sleeve.
For if the bomb that drops on you
Gets your friends and neighbors too,
There'll be nobody left behind to grieve.
And we will all go together when we go.
What a comforting fact that is to know.
Universal bereavement,
An inspiring achievement,
Yes, we will all go together when we go.
We will all go together when we go.
All suffused with an incandescent glow.
No one will have the endurance
To collect on his insurance,
Lloyd's of London will be loaded when they go.
Oh we will all fry together when we fry.
We'll be French fried potatoes by and by.
There will be no more misery
When the world is our rotisserie,
Yes, we will all fry together when we fry.
Down by the old maelstrom,
There'll be a storm before the calm.
And we will all bake together when we bake.
There'll be nobody present at the wake.
With complete participation
In that grand incineration,
Nearly three billion hunks of well-done steak.
Oh we will all char together when we char.
And let there be no moaning of the bar.
Just sing out a Te Deum
When you see that I.C.B.M.,*
And the party will be come-as-you-are.
Oh, we will all burn together when we burn.
There'll be no need to stand and wait your turn.
When it's time for the fallout
And Saint Peter calls us all out,
We'll just drop our agendas and adjourn.
You will all go directly to your respective Valhallas.
Go directly, do not pass Go, do not collect two hundred dollahs.
And we will all go together when we go.
Every Hottentot and every Eskimo.
When the air becomes uranious,
We will all go simultaneous.
Yes, we all will go together
When we all go together,
Yes we all will go together when we go.

Ah Gong :)
I have a huge collection of that :)
Have a cup of tea ... but beware the pot headed pixies!
Zero the Hero rulez :>
Oh and Mr Hillage ... Fish Rising was one of his odder moments!

Your body ain't Pamela Anderson,
Its a struggle just to get you in the caravan,
But listen baby girl,
Before I let you lose a pound I'll buy a bigger car,
So listen baby girl,
I love you just the way you are, the way you are
The Way I Are - Timbaland 8)

8) Thrasher, your music collection sounds as schizophrenic as mine! Didn't like "Fish Rising" but "Green" is one of my all time favourite albums. Never really got into that 60 second "bleuuuggghh" thrash stuff.

some pills make you larger, and some pills make you small,
but the ones that mother gives you, dont do anything at all.

I couldnt pick a line from this one, so i did the whole song!
National Express by The Divine Comedy
Take the national express when your lifes in a mess
Itll make you smile
All human life is here
From the feeble old dear to the screaming child
From the student who knows that to have one of those
Would be suicide
To the family man
Manhandling the pram with paternal pride
And everybody sings ba ba ba da...
Were going where the air is free
On the national express theres a jolly hostess
Selling crisps and tea
Shell provide you with drinks and theatrical winks
For a sky-high fee
Mini-skirts were in style when she danced down the aisle
Back in 63 (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
But its hard to get by when your **** is the size
Of a small country
And everybody sings ba ba ba da...
Were going where the air is free
Tomorrow belongs to me
When youre sad and feeling blue
With nothing better to do
Dont just sit there feeling stressed
Take a trip on the national express

From Shakira, Wherever whenever:
Lucky that my breasts are small and humble
So you don't confuse them with mountains
Lucky I have strong legs like my mother
To run for cover when I need it
Oookaay! What is she on about?
It must be something to do with her coming from Columbia and the biggest product of that country is...............not coffee!

Genesis - I know what I like (In your wardrobe)
When the sun beats down and I lie on the bench
I can always hear them talk
Me, I'm just a lawnmower
You can tell me by the way I walk

Wasn't that one a Gabriel composition? If so, that explains a lot really. As does this picture. :shock:

ELO, Mr Blue Sky - great song, just a downright random lyric!

People say I'm crazy and that I am blind
