a parody of "Runaround Sue" by Dion
He's a 150-year-old wizard, who as far as all the HP stories are concerned is way beyond the point where he's copulating... so why bother saying "he's gay"?

Story about this misheard lyric by: Alan Brockman

No real story except that I was only 3 years old when the song first came out. Even though I was only 3, I remember hearing it played on the radio a lot, but I did not understand what the song meant at the time.

Nonsensical Song Lyrics:

"The Wanderer"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
And when I find myself a-fallin' for some girl,
Yeah, I hop right into that car of mine, and I drive around the world.
Why They're Nonsensical:
Unless and until some very long bridges are built, crossing oceans (not likely to ever happen!), it will not be possible to drive around the world.

Insulting Song Lyrics:

"The Wanderer"
The Insulting Lyrics:
I kiss 'em and I love 'em 'cause to me they're all the same
I hug 'em and I squeeze 'em, they don't even know my name
Why They're Insulting:
Speaks for itself. Need I say more?
Submitted by: Lomedhi
"The Wanderer"
The Insulting Lyrics:
I kiss 'em and I love 'em 'cause to me they're all the same
I hug 'em and I squeeze 'em they don't even know my name
Why They're Insulting:
This does not sound like love; it sounds like lust, objectification of women, and sexual assault. And if he's "the type of guy who will never settle down" and all that, good luck when he's older and he's alienated women with his vile treatment of them.

Upbeat Songs With Depressing Lyrics:

"Abraham, Martin, and John"
The Lyrics:
Anybody here see my old friend John,
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed a lot of people,
but it seems the good they die young.
I turn around and he's gone.
Why:
It's got a Bossa-Nova beat and a major key, but this song is about the martyrs of that time when JFK, MLK, and RFK died as well as Lincoln.
Submitted by: Paul Warren
"Runaround Sue"
The Lyrics:
I should have known it from the very start,
this girl will leave me with a broken heart.
Now listen people what I'm telling you,
A-keep away from-a Runaround Sue.
Why:
This Doo-Wop song has that doo-wop feel, but this song is a girl who loves and leaves her lovers.
