Neil Diamond's, "I Am...I Said"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
I am I said to no one there
and no one heard at all
not even the chair
and no one heard at all
not even the chair
Why They're Nonsensical:
Of course not! That's because chairs do not have ears. They are not living things.

Neil Diamond's, "If You Know What I Mean"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
And the radio played like a carnival tune
As we lay in our bed in the other room
When we gave it away for the sake of a dream
In a penny arcade, if you know what I mean
As we lay in our bed in the other room
When we gave it away for the sake of a dream
In a penny arcade, if you know what I mean
Why They're Nonsensical:
Uh, no, Neil. I don't have a clue what you mean.

Neil Diamond's, "Play Me"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Songs she sang to me
Songs she brang to me
Songs she brang to me
Why They're Nonsensical:
"Brang"? That's not a real word! Something tells me that he was desperate for a rhyme so he used a nonstandard past tense. Neil, I thought you were smarter than that.

Neil Diamond's, "Play Me"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
You are the Sun
I am the Moon
You are the words
I am the tune
Play me
I am the Moon
You are the words
I am the tune
Play me
Why They're Nonsensical:
People aren't literally celestial bodies, nor are they words or tunes. And a person can't be played like a song or musical instrument.

The sea can't free people from being sailors
