America's, "A Horse With No Name"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
It felt good to be out of the rain
Why They're Nonsensical:
'Out of the rain?' I couldn't stand the heat! To me, it's 'out in the rain,'

America's, "Horse With No Name"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
In the desert you can remember your name
Why They're Nonsensical:
Even if you have to spend a lot of time in a large urban area and you hate that, I'm sure you can still remember your own name.

America's, "Horse With No Name"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
In the desert, you can't remember your name
Cause there ain't no one for to give ya no pain.
Cause there ain't no one for to give ya no pain.
Why They're Nonsensical:
Triple negative plus conjoined prepositions. That is really crappy English just to complete the rhyme and meter. And why is it (we're told) that one cannot remember one's name because there's no one else around to cause one pain?

America's, "Tin Man"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
And cause never was the reason for the evening
Or the tropic of Sir Galahad
Or the tropic of Sir Galahad
Why They're Nonsensical:
What the hell? I mean, seriously. Any attempt at analysis just detracts from the perfect nonsense that simply...is.

America's, "Ventura Highway"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Alligator lizards in the air
Why They're Nonsensical:
Dewey Bunnell said he got the vibe for this song while standing on the side of Ventura Blvd. While some other guy he was with was changing a flat tire or something. The whole California scene flashed before him and what came out? 'Alligator lizards in the air?' Still, alligators and lizards are two different kinds of reptiles; a hybrid of them just seems nonsensical.
