How has a song lyric impacted your life? How has your favourite/ one of your favourite song lyrics impacted your life?

Filthiest, sleaziest song lyric that does not use profanity? My vote is for the first line of Led Zeppelin’s Custard Pie. The song is an ode to cunnilingus. The opening line is: “Ooh.

I’m having a hard time topping one that’s not even really from a rap group: “My rhymes are so potent that in this small se…

Favorite or Embarrassing Misheard Lyric? I’m not talking about famous or popular misheard lyrics, but lyrics that you heard as a child and realized they were different, or lyrics that you just always sang a certain way and didn’t bother looking up the correct words. Here’s my cringy example: I just heard the song “Let it Whip” by the Dazz Band, and realized as a kid I always thought th…

I’ve Never Understood What This Beatles Lyric Means Hopefully this community can help me out! In “A Day in the Life” by the Beatles, they sing “I read the news today, oh boy, about a lucky man who made the grade. And though the news was rather sad, I just had to laugh.” I guess I don’t know what it means to have “made the grade.” It doesn’t seem –on its face — like something that would be sad n…

Funniest lyric in a non-comedy song? As in, not a track by a comedy act or a song with the primary purpose of getting a laugh. My nomination is Jimi giving zero fucks in Spanish Castle Magic: No it’s not in Spain But all the same You know It’s a groovy name EDIT: I’m starting to think that using Beastie Boys is cheating submitted by /u/NorthernSkeptic
