Repetitive Song Lyrics:

"Bad Habits and Infections"
The Repetitive Lyrics:
I am the doctor (ad nauseum / infinitum)
Why They're Repetitive:
It must take up to half the song's 6 minute duration. Alright alright ALRIGHT! Daryl Hall and John Oates supposedly have stated that they hate the album this song is on: "Beauty On A Back Street". It sure ain't an indication of the string of cool hits they'd enjoy in the 80s.
Submitted by: Doctor Sirius
"Out Of Touch"
The Repetitive Lyrics:
You're out of touch
I'm out of time
but I'm out of my head
when you're not around
You're out of touch
I'm out of time
but I'm out of my head
when you're not around
Oh oh oh oh oh
Why They're Repetitive:
Other than the chorus being annoying there's not much that I can really say about this song.
