The most nonsensical lyrics in goth and other music

Darcnyss · 12-10-2008, 07:31 AM

Okay, so the aim of this thread is to post some of the most nonsensical lyrics you can find in gothic music or other forms of music you like. For my own contribution, I will post "PrisonER" by Diary of Dreams.

IOU this.
In-cest!, my kingdom is krank
PrisonER mesh, slash my flesh
This is my privacy, God,
Within a childish disguise
If I AM-OK surprise!
Dead end dreams end
Now and here
I.D.-Fic(a)tion in fear
Faithful and clear
I sit in front of you, near!
I feel your breath on my skin
Like I am living within
Try, understand how I feel
When you are ready to heal
Then touch my lips with your eyes
To kill this ugly disguise
Did I fulfill every praise
For I am one of this race
Have I not told you in time
That you comitted a crime?
To say that I have to stay
Has even scared me away
And now I look at my hands,
This is my personal trance!
Believe the synchronised thought
In-cubus. Land(lord) of Nod
Down-vein the gemini dead
In this unbearable heat

And, yes, that's the way the lyrics were written.

So, what nonsense can you find in your favourite music?

I think there's a similar thread, called "Weirdest Lyrics" or something.
But I guess I'll post here, anyway. Damn me.

The Residents - "Laughing Song"

An oily ole egg with a red peg leg
Thought a porquepine was his daughter
But he soon found out
That she had the gout
And often would wink underwater
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
HO HO HO HO HO HO HO
HE HE HE HE HE HE HE
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
A red red rose saw a big pig pose
On the edge of a silver dollar
The end of his tail
Was a long-necked nail
And in place of his face was a scholar

"Dave-Id is Dead" by Virgin Prunes. I don't know what's stranger, the lyrics or the way they're sung.

Day by day, only me in my world
The glory, the glory
Oh dear heart

I look through the windows
I can see you clearly now
Walking in the rain
I don't care you know
I believe in myself
I believe in everything
In today
In my dream
Like the
Get cold
Day by day looking at these four walls
Leave me here, leave me till tomorrow
Oh the sky so grey
My life so grey
Leave me, leave me to say
Oh some day
I get away from this misery
Leave me, leave me, please leave me alone
I believe in my sleep
Let me sleep till tomorrow
Oh leave me the day of my life
You're so old
You're so old and grey, the grey in my head
And you never done right

Oh leave me, leave me alone
Leave me today

Sometimes I feel I've been dead

Darcnyss · 12-10-2008, 08:23 AM

Viscus, come to think of it, most of the Virgin Prunes' song lyrics can be put up here, I think. But yeah, "Dave-Id is Dead" must be one of their most nonsensical songs yet.

Girlfriend - Avril Lavigne

No doubt.

Just about anything by Cinema Strange or the Deadfly Ensemble. Lucas Lanthier has the strangest lyrics I've seen or heard in a while. It's a good thing

I can't believe nobody has mentioned...

Jesus Built My Hotrod:

Darcnyss · 12-10-2008, 08:03 PM

I had one hell of a laugh reading the lyrics to "Jesus Built My Hotrod".
Good one, that.

Moringauro · 12-11-2008, 12:43 PM

The absolutely and without doubt most nonsensical goth lyrics I have ever heard are of Samsas Traum's "Ein Foetus wie du" (i.e. "A foetus like you"), whose German parts I will translate into English as far as it is possible to me (Stuff in [angeled brackets] is found thus in the original version). I just hope this doesn't offend anyone, as I'm not quite sure yet, what amount of vulgarity is accepted on this forum...

My heart on 180 kilogramms-per-hour of "Speed"
A pulse that offers unequalled opportunities
And blood that flees the veins:
I wish I was in wonderland
With a fat gun in my hand
And Alice sucked my cock:
Come, swallow, baby! Swallow and then dance!

Why is every brat always someone else's wife?
Why do you get into jail for so long a time for murder?
Why are the days boring and the nights way too short?
Why does the impact on the ground always precede the fall by 17 hours?
Did the Marquis live philosophy in the boudoir?
[Quelqu'un t'a cuit un gateau, mince alors, vas-y le voir!]
And why may one always only hold the shitty end of the stick?
[Hey, hey, Rasputin, leader of the russian queen!]

I'll meet you in Poland, baby,
Deep under ground, [maybe].
Today it's September 11th. Wow!
I'll meet you in Poland, baby,
Visit my funeral, [maybe].
Today it's September 11th 2002!

Now there's an end to Punchinello music,
Noiseman sits inside my ear.
[I have got one regret, that
I have not killed you yet! ]
Baby, let me be your foetus
And give it to me within the vicious circle:
[Without Thirwell's music,
I would kill you twice!]

With how many girls did Sarte cheat on Beauvoir?
Is it lie or truth which is written in the Revelations?
Did Lewis Carrol like kids or was he pedophile?
And when will I find the penny that has dropped two decades ago?
Did Baader have a full beard, did his Gudrun lick pussies?
Did the Flowes of Evil really bloom in Baudelaire's garden?
And when may I finally kneel before a cop on a railroad track?
[Hey, hey, Rasputin, leader of the russian queen!]

I'm pretty sure that none of this has to do with anything.

"Alien Baby" - Sex Gang Children.

Pop your head with news at five
Soul come alive
Mastadon tooth in a yellow suit
Soul come alive
Three legged fools and the chattering stools
Soul come alive

Alien Baby, kept in a jam jar
The mother of nations told me 'you'll go far'
So I'll ban production for the broken hearted
For I'm all that's left of the broken hearted

Love it to death or let it grow
Soul come alive
Tear up your shirt and rub it in the dirt
Soul come alive
Smack my foolish isolation
Soul come alive
Jump you mummy or stick to honey
Soul come alive

Alien baby, kept in a jam jar
The mother of nations told me 'you'll go far'
So I'll ban production of the broken hearted
For I'm all that's left of the broken hearted

The serviceable villan
Did he let you down dad?
While fishermen and waiters fall prey to alligators
In the last great flash of civilisation

The Nashville boys walk through walls
Soul come alive
Like penguins on speed I take no heed
Soul come alive
Barrels of crude and walleroos!
Soul come alive

Alien baby, kept in a jam jar
The mother of nations told me 'you'll go far'
So I'll ban production of the broken hearted
For I'm all that's left of the broken hearted
No toys for the boys
Just bullets for the children
Said the ballerina
In a banana

Thank you very much, Moringauro! I've had that MP3 on my PC for several years now with no idea what the song was called or who performed it. All it says is that it's track 12 on Orkus 2003. Now I know.

Yeah, those lyrics are pretty insane.

Petronius · 12-20-2008, 07:11 AM

One of the most weird lyrics I have heard are also one of my favorite:

"I hear the sons of the city and dispossessed
Get down, get undressed
Get pretty but you and me
We got the kingdom, we got the key" Sisters of Mercy

...you need to get undressed to receive the key... or something...

can anyone explain what's about, cause ... I think I may be stupid. :-)

Drain You - Nirvana

One bady to another says. I'm lucky to have met you.
I don't care what you think unless. It is about me.
It is now my duty to completely drain you.
A travel through a tube and end up in your infection.

Chew your meat for you. Pass it back and forth.
In a passionate kiss. From my mouth to yours. 'cause I like you.

With eyes so dilated. I've became your pupil.
You've taught me everything. Without a poison apple.
The water is so yellow. I'm a healthy student.
Indebted and so grateful. Vacuum out the fluids.

Chew your meat for you. Pass it back and forth.
In a passionate kiss. From my mouth to yours.
'cause I like you. You! You! You! You! You!

One bady to another says. I'm lucky to have met you.
I don't care what you think unless. It is about me.
It is now my duty to completely drain you.
A travel through a tube and end up in your infection.

Chew your meat for you. Pass it back and forth.
In a passionate kiss. From my mouth to yours. 'cause I like you.

like peanut butter on the brain
nothin' ever stays the same

Gotta finish so i can awake
feed the cat or she spreads all the waste
snap her neck or trade in for new make
