Nonsensical Song Lyrics:

"Hollaback Girl"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
So it's not just gonna to happen like that.
Why They're Nonsensical:
This is the way it's written in the cd liner. I don't know if she actually sings it that way, but she wrote it that way. 'Gonna' is a smash-up of 'going to', so you don't need the 'to' after 'gonna'. Unless of course, you want to say 'going to to happen like that'!
Submitted by: Ed
"Rich Girl"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Cuz' I'd have all the money in the world
Why They're Nonsensical:
Yes, it might be lovely to have all the money in the world, but there are some negative aspects. Like if it's absolutely all the money in the world, that includes foreign money, how will it be changed at a Bureau De Change, when the Bureau De Change will have no money to give, 'cuz you've got it! And what will everyone else have to spend! All money in charity buckets would be hers, and would not go to the charity! Also, that would include cheques with someone else's name on them, how can she pay them in to her bank! And Gwen, what have you been doing, to acquire all the money in the world, sure, you'd have to steal some.

"Orange County Girls"
The Lyrics:
I'm just an Orange County girl.
Why:
Eight U.S. states have an Orange County. The one in California, on the south side of the greater Los Angeles area, is the most populous of those eight Orange Counties. Anaheim is the largest city in California's Orange County, and reference to Anaheim elsewhere in the song makes it pretty clear that Orange County, California is the county that the song is referring to.

Songs That Are Banned:

"Hollaback Girl"
How could this be not mentioned yet? This song was heavily censored in English-speaking countries and in Brazil for saying the word "shit" 38 times. I personally have heard both versions at parties.
Submitted by: dxman

Lyrics Pronunciation:

"The Sweet Escape"
The Lyrics:
It's your fault you didn't shut the refrigerator.
Why:
Gwen pronounces it 'refriger-uh-tor' instead of the correct pronunciation 'refriger-ray-tor', so it sounds more like 'refrigera door', whatever that is.
Submitted by: Sherock
