Misrhymed Lyrics:

"Every Rose Has Its Thorn"
The Misrhymed Lyrics:
Every rose has its thorn
Just like every night has its dawn
And every cowboy has a sad, sad song
Every rose has its thorn.
Why They're Misrhymed:
This song is actually quite brilliant in that, sung with a drawl, it sounds as though thorn / dawn / song actually rhyme with one another. But they don't.

Dirty Lyrics:

"Talk Dirty To Me"
The Dirty Lyrics:
At the drive-in
in the old man's Ford.
In the bushes
till I'm screaming 'more!'
In the basement
lock the cellar door and baby
talk dirty to me.
Why They're Dirty:
The title of the song says that the lyrics of this song are going to be filthy as hell. Of course Poison was always a band that's been filthy as hell.
