"The Muppets' Wizard of Oz, John Tucker Must Die, Coach Carter"	I myself have only seen the first one, so I can't say anything about the other two.

I'm so happy, baby.

Story about this misheard lyric by: Kimberly

I was cruising to Flagstaff,AZ with my mother. When this song came on, my mom asked me, 'Is she saying papi? Or happy?' I started laughing and said she's saying 'happy'. And my mom doesn't know who Ashanti is. All she knows her by is Papi, or the girl who sings 'Papi'.

Song Parody Fragments:

"Rain On Me"

Better Lyrics:

I'm lookin out the window
At this rain that's comin down
It's really annoyin
cuz i alls i hear is plip,plop, plow
I don't wanna hear these noises
No second time around

Original Lyrics:

I'm lookin' in the mirror
At this woman down and out
She's internally dyin'
I know this was not what love's about
I don't wanna be this woman
The second time around

Funniest Song Lyrics:

Repetitive Song Lyrics:

"Rock Wit U (Aww Baby)"

The Repetitive Lyrics:

Aw, baby, when you kissin me
Aw, baby, when you lovin me
Aw, baby, when you come to me

Why They're Repetitive:

Plus the million other times she uses baby aw/oh baby/babe hasn't the word just lost all meaning or what!!!! Ashanti, get a thesaurus

Submitted by: G

"Rock Wit U (Aww Baby)"

The Repetitive Lyrics:

Aww baby when u kissin' me
Aww baby when u lovin' me
I can't describe what I wanna do with you tonight
Aww baby when u come to me
I'll make it so u never leave
Can you rock wit me (aww baby)

Why They're Repetitive:

She loves the word baby. That must be why she whines 'aww' baby 22 times in the song. This does not count 'ooh baby' which can also be heard way too frequently. Enough already!

Nonsensical Song Lyrics:

"Don't Let Them"

The Nonsensical Lyrics:

Don't let them take your love away

Why They're Nonsensical:

Do we have a Tommy Knockers scenario on our hands here? Who exactly's posing a threat of siphoning the love from whomever Ashanti is singing about in this song?

Submitted by: Deezer D

"Only U"

The Nonsensical Lyrics:

Only you can make me feel
And only you can take me there

Why They're Nonsensical:

The last time I did Biology, I remember it was nerves that made people feel. Or is this object of her desire a nerve strand? If this is supposed to be figurative in some way, it isn't working. And the second line is a useless one entirely - take you where exactly, Ashanti? Oh, there! Why didn't you say so?!
