Black Sabbath - Symptom Of The Universe
The music makes me think of surfing through space at the speed of light but when Ozzy starts singing i think of a sweaty fat guy on stage singing nonsensical lyrics. :amaze:
Talk songs with silly lyrics you love anyway.

Most Beck songs rock and have some awesomely silly lyrics.
That one Harvey Danger song is funny as well.

I'm personally rather partial to Devin Townsend's Ziltoid the Omniscient, as well as select others by him/SYL.

Yes make great music but they have the worst lyrics ever. It's like Jon Anderson transformed his mullet into poetry.

Yeah, but the lyrics to Happy With What You Have To Be Happy With are so cool, that all is well in Fripp land.
Well I love the lyrics to Oyster Soup as well, but there's no denying they're silly.

silly can be good.
lyrics are never really the most important aspect to a KC song, though.
Matte Kudesai and Heartbeat have somewhat lame lyrics to them. Love those songs, though.

pretty much the majority of Talking Heads songs which is why I love them.
I love the lyrics to Matte Kudasai. They're really unique.
But, yeah, the lyrics are definitely not the most important aspect of KC.

robert fripp doesn't play guitar; he conjurs up the spirits of ancient Mayan warriors to finger and pick the strings for him.

Actually, I do...they suppose to satirize the glam sex songs without the stupid metaphors.
Still, the lyrics are silly.
