Funny Lyrics:

"Misty"

The Funny Lyrics:

Walk my way,
And a thousand violins begin to play.

Why They're Funny:

Oh, how that makes true love such a hard thing to call. So often have I been deceived in my search for true love when someone walked my way and only 999 violins began to play!

Nonsensical Lyrics:

"Marshmallow World"

The Nonsensical Lyrics:

The world is your snowball, see how it grows.
Thats how it goes whenever it snows.
The world is your snowball just for a song.
Get out and roll it along!

Why They're Nonsensical:

First, the thought of the world growing like a snowball? Huuunnnnhh? And then telling you to roll the world along like a snowball. Think you could, considering the Earth only weighs about 6 sextillion tons? But even if you COULD roll something that heavy, on what surface would you roll it?!? This song is generally delightful, quaint and dainty to be sure, but these lines are just OVER THE TOP in the nonsense category, compared to most anything!

"Wonderful, Wonderful"

The Nonsensical Lyrics:

You turn to me with a kiss in your eyes

Why They're Nonsensical:

And why not a gaze in her lips while she's at it?

Misrhymed Lyrics:

"Small World"

The Misrhymed Lyrics:

We have so much in common, it's a phenomenon

Why They're Misrhymed:

Would have worked as a rhyme, except for that troublesome last syllable of 'phenomenon', which just dangles there without being part of the rhyme.

Inappropriate Lyrics:

"Merry Christmas"

The Inappropriate Lyrics:

Santa Claus will stop,
And I know he'll drop
Exactly what you wanted
From your chimney top.

Why They're Inappropriate:

Gee, hope that "exactly what you wanted" isn't breakable! This isn't the usual Santa Claus story. In the usual version he comes down the chimney with what you want (If you're nice, at least!) and puts it in your stocking. I like the usual version better! This song as a whole isn't bad, but it probably is my least favorite on a CD called "Winter Wonderland" by Johnny Mathis.
