Talking Favorite odd/funny song lyrics?

Ok, so I'm completely bored and searching for a topic we've not covered here. Then Pandora radio threw me a bone of creativity!

Ever hear a line in a song that makes you say: WTF?!? I'll start with my reigning favorite:

Bjork: Possibly Maybe: "I suck my tongue in remembrance of you..."

I snicker every effin time I hear that line!

Deborah Harry - The Date
Debravation (8 1/2) Producer's (Director's) Cut

Hear ye! Hear ye!
C'mon all you hungry ones

This is a story 'bout the bitches with the business cards
And about the squeezers when they think that they're the only ones
She shot him in the parking lot because he made her stockings run
Defense got messy coz he covered her with cookie crumbs
Her feet felt sticky cos beer hit her in her pumps
Then he broke her bed coz he weighed about a thousand pounds
I always had to watch where he parked his heavy guns
And he got my hair in his hubba double bubble gum
Why did he have to beat him when it could've been just anyone?
Later in the afternoon I had a mighty hunch
That I looked and felt like a piece of his old lunch
A sleaze boy in a roll-up cos' my custard got all greasy
And my face turned green but by then I felt real queazy
I couldn't go back home I was lookin' too sleazy
I should've shot him then you know it would've been real easy

Fish, fish jump in in my dish
Something in his voice when he said "Yo Miss"
Fish, fish jump in in my dish
Something in his voice said he couldn't resist
Said fish, fish jump in in my dish

About when I met you and you said I was the very best I should've known that's what you say to all the rest
I told you then that your images were hollow and you're not the type of cat that I would choose to follow
Maybe you're perplex that your venture isn't working
I guess you think my chain only needs a little jerking
So why'd you look surprised
Just because I blew your brains out
Love gets messy and that's what it's all about
Pullin' up to my house in his Porsche with a telephone
Droolin' in the driveway he bit the dog and took his bone
Drivin' to the movies at ninety miles an hour
"I was in a hurry so I didnt take a shower. Now I got a picture that I know you'd die to see it's 'Rambo meets Godzilla' number seveny-three"
During the excitement while I paused to take a nap
I walk up as he tried to put his head into my lap

Fish, fish jump in in my dish
Something in his voice when he said "yo Miss"
Fish, fish jump in in my dish
Something in his voice said he couldn't resist
I said fish, fish jump in in my dish

And Rambo beat Godzilla for the seventy-third time
I thought I'd made my final move and get out with my mind
I think I got a headache quite crude is how I feel
? diversion down at Wang's house of ?

Oh god

Okay

I should've been suspicious when his fingers hit the dishes when he ate the fortune cookies he even ate the wishes
No matter where he was always on the prowl
If he didn't find a bite to eat he opened up his mouth to howl
He had such an appetite he must've been an alien
When I saw the chicken bones it was easy trailing him
When he asked for water while the waiter put the bucket in
Naturally it crossed my mind how did I get stuck with him
Said you better take me home coz now it's gettin' late
I wasn't too surprised at how easy he could mutate
Just like in the movie his head began to rotate suddenly I saw Cecilia with her eyeballs on a plate
I knew I had to shoot him
I couldn't stand a second date
His lips are coming at me I said "better dead then and fed"
That's when I pulled my 45 and shot him in the head

Fish, fish jump in in my dish
Something in his voice when he said "Yo Miss"
Fish, fish jump in in my dish
Something in his voice said he couldn't resist
I said fish, fish jump in in my dish

Next time you're out hunting be sure to stand guard 'cos no-one's in a hurry for the ultimate reward
The moral of the story's one that shouldn't be ignored hell hath no fury like a woman who's bored

Harry Nilsson's "You're Breakin' My Heart".

You're breakin' my heart,
you're tearin' it apart,
so f**k you

All I want to do,
is have a good time,
now I'm blue

You wanna boogaloo,
run down to Tramps,
have a dance or two--ooh!!

You're breaking my heart,
you're tearin' it apart,
but f**k you

You're breakin' my heart,
You're tearin' it apart
Ooh!!--ooh!!

You stepped on my ass,
you're breaking my glasses too

You wanna drive my car,
buy a lot of stuff,
I've had enough
of you--ooh!!

I'm goin' insane,
there's no one to blame,
so f**k you

You've gotta have your way,
there's nothin' left to say,
there's nothin' left to do--ooh!!

You're breakin' my heart,
you're tearin' it apart,
so f**k you

You've gotta have your way,
there's nothin' left to say,
there's nothin' left to do--ooh!!

You're breakin' my heart,
you're tearin' it apart,
but I love you

For a total whiskey tango foxtrot experience, I cannot recommend "MacArthur Park" enough. Most people have heard the song, of course, and recognize it, but I've had a lot of experiences with people that never really paid attention to the actual lyrics and always do this, "Wait, that's a joke, right?" thing when I recite them.

I mean...striped pair of pants? Cake left in the rain? "I don't think I can take it, cos it took so long to bake it, and I'll never have that recipe again. OHHHH NOOOOO!"?

It's the "OHHHH NOOOO!" that always kills me.

Spring was never waiting for us, girl
It ran one step ahead
As we followed in the dance
Between the parted pages and were pressed
In love's hot, fevered iron
Like a striped pair of pants

MacArthur Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet, green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, no!

I recall the yellow cotton dress
Foaming like a wave
On the ground around your knees
The birds, like tender babies in your hands
And the old men playing checkers by the trees

MacArthur Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet, green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, no!

(break)

There will be another song for me
For I will sing it
There will be another dream for me
Someone will bring it
I will drink the wine while it is warm
And never let you catch me looking at the sun
And after all the loves of my life
After all the loves of my life
You'll still be the one

I will take my life into my hands and I will use it
I will win the worship in their eyes and I will lose it
I will have the things that I desire
And my passion flow like rivers through the sky
And after all the loves of my life
After all the loves of my life
I'll be thinking of you
And wondering why

(break)

MacArthur Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet, green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, no!
Oh, no
No, no
Oh no!!
