Insincere Song Lyrics
Alkaline Trio's, "All On Black"
The Insincere Lyrics:
RE: "Whats upside down was coated in silver? This crucifix is my four leaf clover"
Why They're Insincere:
This lyrics is absolutely not INsincere - he means every word. It is very Satanic - Matt Skiba and Derek Grant are both well-known members of the Church of Satan, and Dan Andriano is "comfortably" associated with the religion as well. If you pay close enough attention, many Alkaline Trio lyrics are Satanic....Satanism isn't "freakish" at all - try reading up on it yourself before passing judgment.

Misrhymed Song Lyrics
Dolly Parton's, "I'll Make Your Bed"
The Misrhymed Lyrics:
I'm not the kind of girl that married dear dad
I don't make apple pies and cookies from scratch
Later in the song...
I promised forever on the day that we met
That I'll love you truly and I'll make your bed.
I don't make apple pies and cookies from scratch
Later in the song...
I promised forever on the day that we met
That I'll love you truly and I'll make your bed.
Why They're Misrhymed:
I don't know why Dolly thinks that 'Dad' rhymes with 'scratch," because they just simply DON'T. 'Met' and 'bed' is perhaps understandable, but still pushing it.

TLC's, "No Scrubs"
The Insulting Lyrics:
If you don't have a car and you're walking, (Oh yes son, I'm talking to you). If you live at home with your momma. (Oh yes son, I'm talking to you). If you have a shorty and you don't show love. (Oh yes son, I'm talking to you). Wanna get with me with no money, oh no, I don't want no scrub!
Why They're Insulting:
There are some men who are broke or close to it that have heart. This song is just telling they want only perfect men. This is why Sporty Theivez made a parody called "No Pigeons".

Foreign Language in English Songs
Queen's, "Bohemian Rhapsody"
The Lyrics:
Bismillah! no-,we will not let you go-let him go-
Bismillah! we will not let you go-let him go
Bismillah! we will not let you go-let me go
Bismillah! we will not let you go-let him go
Bismillah! we will not let you go-let me go
Why:
"Bismillah" is Arabic, it roughly means "In the Name of God", and is at the beginning of almost every chapter of the Koran/Q'uran (Holy book of Islam). Some pious Muslims will mention "Bismillah" before doing anything, and several constitutions of some Muslim countries begin with this word.

Upbeat Songs With Depressing Lyrics
"Weird Al" Yankovic's, "Why Does This Always Happen To Me?"
The Lyrics:
I was watching my TV one night when they broke in with a special report About dsome devistating earthquake in Peru There were thirty thousand crushed to death, even more were buried alive On the Richter scale it measured 8.2 And I said, "God, please answer me one question?" "Why'd they have to interrupt 'The Simpsons' just for this?" What a drag, 'cause I was taping it and everything And now I'll have to wait for the rerun to see the part of the show I missed Why does this always happen? Why does this always happen to me? Why does this always happen? (Why) Why does this always happen to me? Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba I was driving down the highway when all the traffic slowed to a crawl There was a twelve-car pile-up, everybody dead And I saw brains and guts and vital organs splattered everywhere As well as my friend Robert's disembodied head And I thought - Poor Rob, I just had lunch with him Hey, wait a minute, he still owes me money - what a jerk Well, there's five bucks that I'm never gonna see again Plus now, on top of everything else, it looks like I'm gonna be late to work Why does this always happen? Why does this always happen to me? Why does this always happen? (Why) Why does this always happen to me? Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba, ba ba Oh, the other day, my boss said we were running low on toner And he told me I should buy another case Well, I told him I was busy, but he still just kept on asking So, I turned around and stabbed him in the face (right in the face) Oh, and wouldn't you know it, my knife got stuck I guess that's probably bound to happen now and then But I'm afraid I may have bent the tip a little And I know that blade will never ever be quite as sharp again (quite as sharp again) Oh, tell me Why does this always happen? Why does this always happen to me? Why does this always happen? Why does this always happen to me? Why does this always happen to me? (Why does this always happen to me?) Why does this always happen to me? (Why does this always happen to me?) Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba ba

I used to love her,
But I had to kill her.

I had to put her six feet under,
And I can still hear her complain.
But I had to kill her.
I used to love her, mmm, yeah,
But I had to kill her.
I had to put her six feet under,
And I can still hear her complain.
Why:
Not a good song to have suddenly come blasting out while a man is being questioned about his wife's murder.
