Comments & Submittor Name
The Police Masoko Tanga pretty much the whole song except for "Hey!" One part sounds like "He stole my wombat". - David R
AronChupa I’m an Albatraoz Albatraoz Weird spelling and pronunciation of “albatross” there. - BrilliantJ8
Frankie Miller Darlin' Phonesome Made up to rhyme with 'lonesome' - Robert Sissons
Rammstein B******** Bückstabü Accoring to guitarist Richard Kruspe; it means whatever the listener wants it to mean. - Jay
SSQ Synthicide Synthicide There's a line in the song that goes "killing the pain, synthicide". So I think it's saying that listening to synthesizer music or synthpop music will help get rid of you sadness, hurt and other negative emotions. But "synthicide" is definitely not a real word. To me, the word implies murdering somebody with a synthesizer (beating them to death with it I guess LOL) or that you've killed a synthesizer, LOL. The song's from the 80s but definitely wasn't a hit. But the lead singer of SSQ was a young Stacy Q., who would a few years later have a hit with and become a "one hit wonder" with her catchy song Two Of Hearts. Synthicide's an OK song but I think the title and lyrics hurt it somewhat and that's why it wasn't a hit, but yeah I've definitely heard better. - Edward
Yung Gravy Oops! Supercalifragilisticexpialidopesh*t, supercalifragiliyourexbeonsomeh**sh*t He’s just making up rude words out of another made-up word “supercalifragilisticexpialidocious”! - BrilliantJ8
The Beatles I Am the Walrus Goo Goo G'joob Sounds like baby talk. Of course, this was around the time The Beatles went all Psychedelic so there was bound to be some weird lyrics. - Steve
Betty Hutton Doing What Come Natur'lly natur'lly From the musical, Annie Get Your Gun. - Sheila Oh
Tears for Fears Mad World Halargian The final line "Halargian world, mad world" references a studio in-joke: "Halarge" was a fictional planet invented by a couple of guest musicians on Tears for Fears' first album. In Gary Jules' well-known cover, this line is changed to "enlarging your world, mad world." - Sejica
Chairlift Amanaemonesia Amanaemonesia Lead singer Caroline Polachek says it's "a made-up word, made from combining a bunch of other different words. It means everything it sounds like." - Sejica
Frankie Smith Double Dutch Bus Hizzey, gizzirls, Y'izzall, hizzave, mizzove, izzout, wizzay, sizzo, gizzuys, plizzay, bizzasketbizzall, izzsay, whizzat, nizzo, yizzou, izzan't, etc. These are words with the "izz" added. - JohnHowarth
They Might Be Giants, Mike Doughty, Elegant Too Mr.Xcitement hubba, blubba, landem, clamdem, glands, staben, hoobalicious, aden, mooky, Flansy, trooky,  - RayGun Sharpadero
The Associates  Skipping  Beauxillous  The lyric “Beauxillous Griffin” sounds very similar to “bruxellois griffon”, and may have been some sort of play on it. Billy MacKenzie was a real dog lover after all, it would not be the first canine-related Associates lyric. - Vonne
The Letter People Ms. F's song Foodle-doodle-doo, feedle-deedle-dee  - JohnHowarth
Gioacchino Rossini Impromptu tarantellisé tarantellisé Instrumental, but suggestive of a tarantella - Alan the Ottoman
Gioacchino Rossini Prélude fugassé fugassé Instrumental, but the title suggests a fugal structure - Alan the Ottoman
Hall and Oates Rockability The girl got rockability. Rockability isn't a real word. But I think in the song it's their way of saying she's cool, sexy or attractive I guess. - Edward
Tom Waits Swordfishtrombone swordfishtrombone "He went and took up with a Salvation Army band girl
Who played dirty water on a swordfishtrombone."
-- are the lyrics that have the title word in context. Neither the word nor its overall context in the song make its meaning very self-explanatory. I googled the word and tried to look up a definition, to make sure it wasn't a pre-existing word. I found nothing to suggest it to be anything other than the song's invention. It seems an obscure, not clearly definable term, just a juxtaposition of two dissimilar entities. - Natalie Lundgren
Ethel Merman It's De-Lovely de-lovely Lovely is a word but de-lovely isn't. - Old Man Edgar Winter
Massive Attack Karmacoma Karmacoma In line of chorus: "Karmacoma, jamaica an' roma" - Farlow Maitland
