I was listening to My Beef Mail Box (Most humble apologies for the vid as it was the only version I could find) and thought to myself this is a bizarre song. Incredible guitar and bass riffs but way out there lyrics wise. So I was wondering what other gems of insanity my fellow Jellies have in their collections. Please do provide links when possible!! ;)

My brother’s band has a song called “Sharks Eat Cancer”. It was partially my doing.
Butt Funkin by the Limbomaniacs.
Honestly, any song by these guys is hilarious
I can’t say I’ve ever understood what this song is about. [even after reading translations]
One of my favourite lyrics actually comes from a local folk song, the Manchester Rambler.
“I once met a maid, a spot-welder by trade…”
Particularly notable when you remember that the song was written in 1932.
@jonsblond That is wild! I want that guys guitar!! Gimme gimme!!
@filmfann I was listening to your song and thought….dang that sure sounds familiar and this is why ;)
Now for a classic. Here are the lyrics, you name the band:
Hey can your pussy do the dog? Can your pussy do the dog? Can your pussy do the (houndog, bulldog, poodlecut) baby? Can your pussy do the dog? This whole mess useless now as a whistle on a plow. If your pussy can’t do the dog.
@jonsblond That would be the Cramps and weren’t we all discussing dress codes and piercings here today?? LOL! ;)
“I’m a bad motherfucker yea I’m bad at life,
and I couldn’t fucking please her but I fucked your wife.
It’s not a braging right, honestly it’s embarrasing,
‘cause I made you look so fucking good in comparison.
See I’m the kind of G that aint a G at all,
I suck a shemales dick ‘till I choke on the balls”

Weird lyric.
The Pretenders, Back on the Chain Gang
Circumstance beyond our control, the phone the TV and the news of the world. Got in the house like a pigeon from hell Threw sand in our eyes and descended like flies.
Weird.
Weirdest lyric, the Bird and the Bee, “La La La”:
Take yourself out, hit the tambourine
We have loaded up your eyes and fed you tangerines
If you open up your box you will find a time machine
If you try to find a scratch there’ll be no signs of where you have been.
Actually, the whole song is pretty weird, but I like it.
“Cause there ain’t no one for to give you no pain” from “Horse with no name” by America.
@poisonedantidote You should have broke out the pink hairdoo for that answer! Ca-razy man!! XD
@josie I never looked at that lyric in writing before! Very Jim Morrison like! thx!
Weird song name- Detachable Penis.
One of my best friends has a brother who used to be in a band. They had this one song where part of the lyrics went something like this:
“I want to feel your dick inside of my skull I wanna know what it’s like to feel a man in my eyeball, I want to feel your dick inside of my ass I wanna know what it’s like to be the luckiest corpse in the world.”
^^^ewww OCCULAR PENETRATION
“Several species of small furry animals gathered together in a cave and grooving with a Pict.”
By Pink Floyd.
@cockswain I Love PF’s lyrics and that one is on the top shelf!
@cockswain How many spoken words are in that PF song? There is a quick rant at the end but I never understood the meaning.
It’s not weird per se, and I actually like it – it’s sort of a quasi-philosophical Jewishy-Blues – but it definitely has a no-brainer title: One Man’s Ceiling is Another Man’s Floor.
“I am,” I said
To no one there
And no one heard at all
Not even the chair.
I am I said Neil Diamond
Oh yeah, pretty much all of Rock Lobster is rather bizarre.
I love this bit from Unloveable, which has a rad video based on an Ambrose Bierce story.
Love’s so sweet it suffocates us
Like a sickly kindly gag
And we’re floating down the sewer pipe
Like kittens in a bag
And the mirror screams to both of us
That we are not alone
Then the metaphors explode
And suddenly we’re home
When else has love ever been compared to drowning kittens? And the metaphors explode!
Soul Coughing has some great weird lyrics:
Example, Sugar-free Jazz
Normalize the signal and you’re banging on freon
paleolithic eon
put the fake goatee on
and it booms as cool as
sugar free jazz
Schools he bombs, he bombs
Stack wax lie like a placemat
won’t lap
or help you at the automat
and it’s clear and clean as
sugar free jazz
Schools he bombs, he bombs
Fossilize apostle and I comb it with a rake
you can’t escape
you pull out the brake
and it booms as cool as
sugar free jazz
Starfish and coffee maple syrup and jam
Butterscotch clouds and a tangerine
And a side order of ham
If you set your mind free baby, maybe you’ll understand
And this one…New Moon on Monday
@linguaphile That almost sounds like that could be a missing verse from the Beatles LSD tune! :)
@cruiser—which one—Starfish or New Moon? They both seem inspired by LSD that’s for sure!! Starfish and Coffee is one of Prince’s older songs from waaay back before he went and became a Jehovah’s Witness (a loss to music…. a loss… a devastating loss sighs with grief His love lyrics were the best)
@linguaphile I did not listen to new moon and starfish had a pretty trippy vibe in those lyrics.
@cruiser The rest of the song’s just a story about a quirky little girl that does her own thing… maybe her own thing is LSD?
