Worst Lyrics Ever Written

The 20 Worst Lyrics Ever

My favorite? "Coast to Coast / L.A. to Chicago" from Sade's "Smooth Operator." That has ALWAYS bothered me. Glad it's getting the attention it deserves.

I think that if you can't hit the "meaningful" mark with your lyrics, you should just go for zany. The key is to know when you're falling flat.

That's why I love Prince. Even when he tries to take himself seriously there's always a smirk lurking behind every line.
