Song lyrics that annoy/bug you

I started this b/c of one song and it has annoyed me for ages.

In Whitney Houston's It's Not Right, But It's Ok when she says "if six of y'all went out, then four of you were really cheap, because only two of you had dinner, I saw your credit card receipt." The man in question would have had all six dinners on a receipt for what reason? Lol. He could have been paying for a friend. I know it sounds corny lol, but it has always annoyed me.

Do you guys have any?

The lyrics to "Hot & Cold" drive me insane, for crudeness (on more than one level), although thanks to fanvid watching, the song is one that I can't get out of my head.

I hate everything about "Mony Mony," but especially the "yeah...yeah...yeah...I say yeah...yeah...yeah."

Let's be honest: many songs from Whitney Houston's catalog are hampered by trite and/or confusing lyrics.

Meanwhile, ladies and gentlemen, it's been, what, seven years? And I still don't know what a "Hollaback Girl" is. And I'm afraid I never will.

From "The Name Game"...

"But if the first two letters are ever the same, drop them both and say the name. Like Bob. Bob! Drop the B's, Bo-ob. Fred. Fred! Drop the F's, Fo-red. And Mary, Mary, drop the M's, Mo-ary! And that's the only rule that is contrary."

No. If the first two letters are ever the same, you drop the second one, not both of them.

These qualify more as just stupid lyrics and I know if I really give it a bit more thought that I could come up with a pretty long list of nonsensical lyrics but I'll go with these for now:

Toni Braxton will never breathe again. I think I want to see that sort of thing happen like I'll die without you because sometimes I'm thinking go ahead and die when you stop breathing genius.

The other is one I heard while I was driving on Sunday and for once the artist was named so I know that it's a song by NeYo and he sang something along the lines of "let me love you until you learn to love yourself," which made me ask what happens then? Do you stop loving her? How hard would it have been to make some sense by saying "let me teach/show you how to love yourself?" Then again, maybe she'll never learn to love herself in which case he can go on loving her indefinitely.

This one has had me wondering too.

Also, "When You're Gone" by Avril Lavigne:

"When you're gone, the pieces of my heart are missing you. When you're gone, the face I came to know is missing, too. When you're gone, all the words I need to hear to always get me through the day and make it okay. I miss you."

Um.............WTF?

Oh I LOVE It's Not Right, But It's Okay. It is ghetto fabulous! I LOVE those 90s pop and R&B songs with lyrics like that. Kandi writes like that. From Man Up, "Give me something I can take to the bank or to the pawn shop. Stingy ass nigga's get dropped like my door stop." I see how that could annoy some, but it just adds to the fierceness for me lol.

Not annoying as much as lame:

"I feel the wind, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, begin, I sit on Hills like Laur-yn..." Missy! :lol:

"One, you're like a dream come true

Two, just wanna be with you

Three, girl, it's plain to see

That you're the only one for me

And Four, repeat steps one through three..." !? Naw mothafukka, you got to do betta din dat!

    • HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! And here I am rewatching and...

    • 5-9   Honestly? There's nothing going on. And yet unlike Y&R, I'm not bored. But I just think that's because of the acting going on as they play the beats in this Liam dying storyline. Well, that and the outfits.   If there's anything I'm liking it's the continued drama of Daphne going after Carter and not letting anyone get in her way. Not Brooke. Not Katie. NO ONE.    And while I love TK in those glasses, I am not here for a Brooke/Ridge/Taylee triangle.    And of course, Luna would try to use this Liam mess to get closer to Finn.   Okay week.
    • The acting during those Sarah scenes on Friday was horrific.
    • So true. Their hypocrisy is on another level. When Anita called Ted a coward because he used Bill as a fixer, I almost choked on my Ritz. And Dani calling Ted worse than Bill as a husband because Bill never pretended to be a good person? Then why stay with him for decades and continue to kiss up to him, Dani? I was glad when Bill told Anita he wouldn't be her punching bag. Not for me. I can think of 100 other actors who would have smoking hot chemistry with LB. Lindstrom does not. I see zero chemistry. None. Joey isn't sexy or scary.   -- Mona was awesome today. -- Why was Eva playing cards in the back room of the casino? -- Can they make Anita any more sanctimonious and self-righteous? -- Dani said Anita had Ted shook. LOL. Really?       No. But I see what you're trying to do. This is a SOAP OPERA. Characters HAVE to make mistakes and sin and screw up and cheat. That's the deal. I understand the concern that we have 2 leading Black men who have cheated on their wives. I do. But I also understand that this is SOAPS 101. Are we going to hear complaints every time a Black character messes up???    
    • Gone are the days where at least once every week, a character would pull a gun on someone (Ron you really turned gun violence into a joke on this show)
    • Oooooo I like these. I like we are on the same page about Little Brownie Man. And I hope to remember this at the end of June to see how much of it came to pass. I definitely feel that the Eva vs Kat story is about to reaaaally get going.    As for the B/C stories, it's funny you mentioned the Joey/Vanessa/Doug story first. Because out of all of those, it is the only one that has enough structure and build to it that it could keep going as a B story that could eventually climax. I think the only POV we don't have in it is Joey's at this point because Month 2 put in the work to give us Doug's and Vanessa's and they are now circling each other and their relationship. And we still need to know Joey's endgame.   Why we gotta pick on Jacob and Naomi? We need that goody good couple. lol. They talked about how they got together. Mind you, very briefly. But we do need to know a little bit more about both. Something I was hoping we were getting by having them in their own stories....him with the crooked cop, her with the lawsuit...but it didn't turn out as hoped. Hopefully, that won't be the case with June though.   Yeah, I want to see more of THAT Ashley.  I finally had to break down and explain to my manager why I keep laughing every time I see the bottle of Febreze at work. The product placement definitely be working.

    • That is a specific example where I would agree with those fans so I would be critical of the execs doing so. I frankly think that "caring" in this regard is not conducive to dialog. Basically you point out its very subjective nature. What is caring to one person might be callous disregard to another. I suggest it is a trap & we fell in it!
    • Does anyone know of a place where I could watch older episodes of RC??? I really would love to watch more of this show, and I would decide if I would join the save River city campaign, I HATE when soaps are killed, but sometimes you should let them go too
