Nonsensical Song Lyrics:
"Jailbreak"
The Nonsensical Lyrics: Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak
Somewhere in this town Why They're Nonsensical: Uh, I'm not too sure on the geography of your town, but I'd be willing to bet that the jailbreak is going to occur at the, um, jail? This is the stupidest lyric I've ever heard. Without a doubt.

| "The Boys Are Back In Town"
The Nonsensical Lyrics: Well this chick got up and she slapped Johnny's face
Man, we just fell about the place Why They're Nonsensical: What does that mean, 'we just fell about the place'? If it means that they fell on the floor laughing when Johnny got slapped, then they should just say so instead of concocting their own slang phrase so that it rhymes with 'face'. Man, my head just hurts about the place when I hear this line.
