Forced rhymes, cheesy metaphors, cliche analogies, and lyrics that generally don't seem to have anything important to say.

what kanye does

what 311 does

I'd remove the Lyrics that don't have much to say part as those are only mediocre and never actually detract from a song.

I can't tell if these are good of bad lyrics
i mean at first it sounds like forced sadness
but later he admits that in the lyrics
and you're reminded that even tho it's trivial, it real.
i still think its kinda shit tho.

this is what i consider bad lyrics:
[Chorus:]
I done put two sticks in my bun
So they recognize me when I come
I'm D-M-C like Run
Listen mami I'm the muthafuckin one

[Verse:]
You don't like me you just like my flow
Just booked a show but I might not go
Nigga said he didn't have a pole for my hoe
Damn why a nigga tryna fuck up my dough
When it come to me it be like they go
They tell me to stop but I'm like hell no
Now everybody watch my M-O
Nicki been hot since you rock shell tops
Yessir

Ha ha ha ha
Gotta laugh at that
Bitch give me the ball I'm a pass it back
Spit nothin but crack got bags of that
When it come to rap I master that

[Chorus:]
I done put two sticks in my bun
So they recognize me when I come
I'm D-M-C like Run
Listen mami I'm the muthafuckin one
I done put two sticks in my bun
So they recognize me when I come
I'm D-M-C like Run
Listen mami I'm the muthafuckin one

[Verse:]
You can spot me from a mile away
Nicki sexy any time of day
Word on the street is that I'm chinese
No lil mama I'm just high off haze
Don't fuck a dude if a dude don't pay
Don't suck a dude if a dude dirty
When it come to you gotta look purty
Sit up in the groove get your weave curly, hey
Sim simma
Pass me the keys to my beemer
Wish I had a booty like Trina
Nigga get your green up
Stay in the sky like Nina
Flights to Japan, Tiran and Korea

[Chorus:]
I done put two sticks in my bun
So they recognize me when I come
I'm D-M-C like Run
Listen mami I'm the muthafuckin one
I done put two sticks in my bun
So they recognize me when I come
I'm D-M-C like Run
Listen mami I'm the muthafuckin one

You have a bad start already when you have nothing valuable to say

This piece of shit from my country, I dare you to watch the entire video without cringing
youtube.com/watch?v=pUcREla9gzY

I WISH HE WAS MY BOYFRIEND
I WISH HE WAS MY BOYFRIEND
ID LOVE HIM TILL THE END
BUT INSTEAD HE'S JUST A FRIEND
I WISH HE WAS MY BOYFRIEND

So, all of Car Seat Headrest's?

What do you consider valuable?

what the fuck
Pretty sure my phone's word prediction software could shit out better lyrics.

I wish I found some better sounds no one’s ever heard,
I wish I had a better voice that sang some better words,
I wish I found some chords in an order that is new,
I wish I didn't have to rhyme every time I sang

yeah i smoke a molly
then i raise my molly water
i got a molly
cake in my rari
that's ferrari fuck nigga
i got two bars a song, like phone ringing
i got two bars of gold, now my phone singing
all this money in the air, distillate
fistulate my dick into your girlfriends pustilate
yakk

>I'll see you when I get there
>But until we get there

That's not how rhyming works

but Breaking The Girl is top tier and I Could Have Lied and My Lovely Man are pretty good too

One example that comes to mind are those vapid songs about love and wanting a gf/bf just for the sake of it, or generally being a creep or an idiot because is "romantic". Or even those cringy heartbreak songs. Really, it's like if they've never met an actual person before.

There are lot of other examples, but a take this one because it has become very jarring to me in the last years.

Sir Psycho Sexy

BUT SOMEBODY STOLE MY WACK METAPHOR AND NOW I HAVE PRODUCERS MESH TERRIBLE REGGAE, MY WHINY VOICE, AND GARBAGE INSTRUMENTALS INTO OVER-PRODUCED GARBAGE MADE SPECIFICALLY FOR RADIO PLEBS WHO WANT TO SAY "MAN I LOVE THESE GUYS, ALL THEIR SONGS ARE GOOD CAUSE THEY'RE ALL THE SAME AND THE DRUMMING IS GOOD TOO"

oh yeah how did I forget

actually so many of RHCP lyrics are great, but their singles or hit songs are usually just party jams with meaningless lyrics

some of them sound like shit some tumblr blog would put on a picture trying to be deep
"Dark Necessities are part of my design"
Then a picture of a sunset or some shit

It really depends on the genre eg pop lyrics don't need to be le deep and pink lyrics don't need to le catchy

I love that album

A MULATTO
AN ALBINO
A MOSQUITO
MUH LIBIDO

Out of bed and out of breath
My coffee tastes like medicine
Webmd says I might have the cancer
Too afraid to know, I do
Have critters living by
In the vicinity and
My clothes smell like old
This room is cold, my dreams are old
But I'm too keen of my
Do's and Mi's
To let it slip
I'm not complete

Anything like 21 pilots.

I dislike anything that's as self-indulgent as this:

>fire
>desire

What about mindless self indulgence

how do you force rhymes?

Vampire
Admire
Squire
Dire
Tyre
Tire
Choir
Gyre
Hire
Liar
Empire
Sire (if that's how you spell it)

Shit like this:
Look at my computer
I wish I knew her

damn thats a hot tamale! Then what was some rhymes that you would consider good?

Look at my lovely eyes of green
I'm forever watching as you paint the scene

most of best coast's lyrics would fit right in in this thread

ok I can see where you are coming from. The first one didnt sound so subtle. where the second kinda floats in which is nice. You going to sing it and post it?

I would but A. shit mic B. even if my mic was fine, throat feels like shit, got a cold right now

haha nice i was kinda just messing with you. hope you feel better.

lol

No artificial nipples
I flip the real skills
I thought I told you once
I kick the lyrical windmills

It's a shame really, the rest of the song is great.

Is that really possible? The kid should be 23 by now

>Tell your boyfriend if he says he's got beef
>That I'm a vegetarian and I ain't fucking scared of him.

I'm not even going to make fun, this post is just cute

AHCIE WATCHA GONNA SAY YOU GONNA DO YA
TICK TOCK CLOCK DA DOCK WATCH YA DOA
HEYA I GOIN BACK TO CALIFORNYA

its not hard to write lyrics as Anthony Kiedis

SHE WANTS TO TOUCH ME OOO OOO

Yeah, those are pretty shit

"I wish I could be the one,
the one who won't care at all
But being the one on the stand,
I know the way to go, no one's guiding me.
When time soaked with blood turns its back,
I know it's hard to fall.
Confined in me was your heart
I know it's hurting you, but it's killing me."

save me from the Ghost of Shadows

before he

EATS MY SOUL

I wish I found some better sounds no one's ever heard
I wish I had a better voice that sang some better words
I wish I found some chords in an order that is new
I wish I didn't have to rhyme every time I sang
I was told when I get older all my fears would shrink
But now I'm insecure and I care what people think
My name's Blurryface and I care what you think
My name's Blurryface and I care what you think

Also there are few things as vapid and devoid of value as bragaddocio rap lyrics.

pussy money weed, need a honey and some gs
ain't it funny how I be cause I smoked a pound of weed
now pass the crown to me cause I got something to prove
I got notin to lose when I'm clutching the ooze

Yes, but what else is there left to sing about?
Pussy, money, weed - is all a nigga need.
Or you could sing about the absence of those things.

I don't know. I listen to music for the music, not the lyrics or the voice.
I fucking hate singing 99% of the time in music in fact, and simply ignore it.
I don't know a single lyric by memory, not a single song. I just don't give a fuck about it.
Feels funny now that i think about it.

Shit, I don't know, anything else? There's a lot to sing about if you're not a basic aswaffle.

fucking checked

>There's a lot to sing about if you don a fedora and go all pseudo-intellectual
Yep.

Fuck man, do you genuinely believe that if your lyrics aren't telling other people how much weed you smoke or how rich you are you're a pseudo-intellectual?

Goddamn, you can sing about anything you want, lyrics can be just straight up poetry or describing what happened to you last Tuesday, not everything has to be a dick measuring contest.

Bad lyrics have no meaning or are genuinely nonsensical.

>Fuck man, do you genuinely believe that if your lyrics aren't telling other people how much weed you smoke or how rich you are you're a pseudo-intellectual?
Yes.

>Goddamn, you can sing about anything you want
Singing about anything except being a wanton immoral reckless idiot is pseudo-intellectualism.
Cry about it.

>meaning
Whoa there man, your fedora is vibrating.

Truly now I see the error of my ways.

Nothing but the finest of trees to smoke for me from now on, and asses the size of a moon each buttock, asses the size you could never touch in your life because you are so poor, so much poorer than me, and your dick is also smaller than mine.

Poetry
10/10
Next YeYe right here

except if that's intentional, like on TMR, right?
or except just in general, and you're wrong, right?
ever heard of dada?

You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow

Sounds forced.

dadaist lyrics are fucking stupid. just because it's nonsensical on purpose does not excuse it from criticism.

What I appreciate in lyrics, is the ability to describe simple things with beautiful words.

Shitty half rhymes.
>girl; world
>mine; time
>decrepit; sandpit
shit like that

the first two lines are good though

Why would you remove the artist's name, you ficking asshole

It's all a matter of soul and fire
Infatuation or true desire

This pretty much sums it up for me.

don't forget tweens shit like "i wanna watch you in that spelling bee" fuck that gay shit and if you think its cute go kill your self with Jackob's dildo

>CSH
>bad lyrics

>YOOOOOOUUUU FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK LIKE A RAAAAAAAAAAACCCEEEHOOOORRSSEEE

I fucking hate every lyric on that album, it's just "DUDE JEFF MANGUM LYRICISMS LMAO"

>hasn't listened to Ween

>I done put two sticks in my bun
kek senpai

So rap and hip hop

This is neat who is this?
