Top Ten Songs With Weird Lyrics That We Love

The Top Ten
1 Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen

With this being one of the the most famous songs ever written, and the fact that almost no one can agree what the song really means, it is one of the strangest, yet most amazing songs ever written. That's without mentioning Eddie Mercury's voice and Brian May's expert guitar solos on his self made "Red Special"made in his garage

The most beautiful thing about this song is it brings people together. Even though we don't know what it means, we are still brought together by it. The mystery doesn't intrigue me; I don't want to know what the song means. I love it enough already.

Not really my introduction to Queen but I can honestly say, it took me years to figure out the title of this song! I was about 9 (20 years after its first release) when I first heard it but didn't know who Queen were at the time. Really weird! :D

Mama just killed a man put a gun against his head pulled the trigger now he's dead mama life had just begun and now I've gone and thrown it all away. Mama ohh! Didn't mean nto make you cry if I'm not back this time tomorrow carry on carry on. :) love it

2 Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana

Definitely should be #1. Just listen to the lyrics! 'With the lights out, it's less Dangerous. Here we are now, entertain us. I feel stupid, and contagious. Here we are now, entertain us. ' Another reason is that not once in the song do they sing "Smells Like Teen Spirit"

How do a mulatto, an albino, a mosquito, and some random guy's libido have ANYTHING in common? What the heck is Nirvana singing about? And, honestly, I love this song for some strange reason!

I was going to vote for bohemian rhapsody but then I realized that the lyrics aren't that weird, so since were song with weird lyrics that we love, this one from nirvana fits the bill

A mulatto
An albino
A mosquito
My libido
Very weird, but the song is awesome nevertheless. Also the way Kurt sings it makes it better.

3 'U Can't Touch This - MC Hammer

His dancing is also quite weird that even vanilla ice copied it

4 Chop Suey! - System of a Down

This song is a beautiful song and undoubtedly is one of the best rock songs of the 2000's and the song meaning is sad it's about people that get judged by the way they die like let's say if someone dies of a drug overdose people will say he/she deserves it because they abused drugs.

I hate the song, but the lyrics are hysterical!

It's about domestic abuse...

Awesome song!

5 The Golden Age of Grotesque - Marilyn Manson
6 Closer - Nine Inch Nails

You can tell by the first verse that this song gets weird, but something about it makes you want to replay it for an hour

Well this song is about sex... Pretty obvious

7 Blinded by the Light - Manfred Mann Band

Okay. Love the song but the lyrics make no sense.

8 Freakshow On the Dance Floor - The Bar-kays
9 Gangnam Style - PSY

Don't know the words, but can't help liking it. I mean, I find it a bit annoying, but have to dance along when I hear it. Is that weird?

It's Korean. enough said.

Translated from Korean, unless you speak the language. Very odd either way.

It's a weird song and video oops gangnam style dun dun dun.

10 American Idiot - Green Day

Not weird,actually, but about the media's control over America.Vote Paranoid Android instead.

Love this song!

The Contenders
11 Basket Case - Green Day

This song doesn't have that many weird lyrics, but it's still great.

Great song! Green Day for days!

I love this song's lyrics.

12 A Little Piece of Heaven - Avenged Sevenfold

Grr! I didn't think I'd see this here. I already voted for Bohemian Rhapsody. ):
As much as I love Bohemian Rhapsody and ALL things Freddie Mercury, this is my favorite song, and even when I put bias aside, I still think it has weird lyrics and love it for that reason. I mean, just listen to these:
"Because I really always knew that my little crime would be cold - that's why I got a heater for your thighs."
Everything else in the song is amazing, too. If you were to hear different segments of it at different times, you wouldn't be able to tell they were from the same song. For example, the chorus sounds NOTHING like the verse (the verses sound like something out of a Tim Burton movie! ). In this sense, it reminds me of Bohemian Rhapsody. And the vocals from M Shadows and the Rev are incredibly expressive!
Please do not be turned off by the rather graphic content in the song. When you look past all the grossness and view the song as a whole, it has a beautiful message. ...more

This song is... Crazy
The Song changes tune about 3-5 times different sounds in it
There some soft & then Hard in it then just sadistic it's weird & the lyrics are too!

Love A7x... A little piece of heaven is the first song from a7x I've heard.. And I loved it so much... It also has a great massage... A7x fo_rev_er,...,...

Yes

13 Don't Stop Me Now - Queen

Gonna make a supersonic man outta you!

I'm a sex machine ready to reload!

14 Deepthroat - Cupcakke
15 Paranoid Android - Radiohead

PARANOID ANDROID is below WHAT DOES THE FOX SAY?! That song doesn't even have weird lyrics and isn't nearly as good as paranoid android!

One of the greatest songs of all time, just look at the other lists of greatest songs ever.

Haha glad to see this song on the list... Guys seriously look up the lyrics for this one

Bohemian rhapsody of radiohead its place should be just below its daddy

16 Just the Same Way - Journey

You Shouldn't Be Holding on To Him Girl
Just Like Just Like You Want to Do
Just love him squeeze him girl

17 Bullet With Butterfly Wings - Smashing Pumpkins
18 I Am the Walrus - The Beatles

"Elementary penguin singing Hare Krishna" or "Sitting on a corn flake waiting for the van to come" or "Semolina Pilchard climbing up the Eiffel Tower", all in all, I love this song, even though the lyrics make no absolute sense.

The story of this song, is that John Lennon was upset with everyone over analyzing the Beatles lyrics, so he wrote a song that purposely made no sense, remembering little sayings he'd heard in his life.

This should be #1

-Fun Fact: Part of the song was written during an acid trip and it was meant to confuse people analyzing the Beatles' lyrics

"Sitting on a corn flake, waiting for the sun to come..." This song is my life

19 The Fox (What Does the Fox Say?) - Ylvis

I LOVE foxes. So much. But this song is weird.

"Cat goes meow" NO, really?!?!

"Cow goes moo"!

(facepalm) I'm sorry, but the lyrics are for kindergartners.

Don't get me wrong. I love this song, but it's just... weird.

This song has weird lyrics but I hate it. Who can be stupid enough to like this nonsense!?

It may be lyrics YOU love but I hate this song. So annoying.

I love the instrumental version of this song but hate the original.

20 The End - The Doors

Almost 50 years later, Morrison's lyrics about his mother are pretty weird.

Mother, I want to f--- you all night long. It doesn't get any weirder than that

21 Come Together - The Beatles

John is talking about Paul and his death in this song and it all makes sense. 'He wear no shoeshine'. On the cover of A. Road, Paul is barefoot. 'Hair down to his knees'. After someone dies, their hair still grows for a while

This song is about the Beatles and how they need to "come together." (See what I did there? ) Each verse describes each member.

This song is talking about the different beatle members. read the lyrics. like were it says ono sideboard its talking about john lennon. and were it says he's gotta be good looking cause he's so hard to see. you can say who you think that is.

More than 40 years later, and still no one has any idea what a "walrus gumboot" is anyway.

22 Every Breath You Take - The Police
23 One Week - Barenaked Ladies

Catchy, weird, awesome! It's very strange, and it makes me think, what the hell, but it's awesome and I never tire of it! But I don't think it's the best Barenaked Ladies song, and definitely not the best music video. That's Falling For the First Time; an awesome song in every way!

It's a great song, with great lyrics, which are very odd, but awesome!

24 Dragula - Rob Zombie
25 One Pound Fish - One Pound Fish Man

The tune is too funny but I kinda like hearing it time and time again
