Nonsensical Lyrics:
"Show Me The Meaning Of Being Lonely"
The Nonsensical Lyrics: Show me the meaning of being lonely
Why They're Nonsensical: Does any part of this song make sense to anyone? I think this song was an attempt for the Backstreet Boys to make themselves sound eloquent, but the song is just thrown together with some cool sounding phrases. Apparently this chick is very willing to show them the meaning of being lonely. He's the one still hung up on her.

outside breathing is so wonderful Why They're Nonsensical: Okay I appreciate being able to breathe too.

Insincere Lyrics:
"Everybody (Backstreet's Back)"
The Insincere Lyrics: Am I original? (yeah yeah)
Am I the only one? (yeah yeah) Am I sexual? (yeah yeah) Why They're Insincere: ok, first of all, the backstreet boys suck! And, this doesn't make any sense at all! Am I original? no. New Kids on the Block were the first boy band! Am I the only one? no. hellooo, ever heard of N'sync???? Am I sexual? no! Their fans are pre teens, and here they are saying they're sexual?! Thats just wrong.
Submitted by: Sabrina

Misrhymed Lyrics:
"Siberia"
The Misrhymed Lyrics: And my heart did time in Siberia
cause it's all so dark and mysterious Why They're Misrhymed: It's original, but it's amazing how you can manage to change pronunciation to make a rhyme kind of work
Submitted by: supernixi
| "I Want It That Way"
The Misrhymed Lyrics: Tell me why, ain't nothing but a heartache
Tell me why, ain't nothing but a mistake Why They're Misrhymed: The accent on 'mistake' is shifted to the first syllable, when it should be pronounced 'mis-take', not 'mis-take'. It may rhyme, but there's no ***flow*** to it! A very smooth song otherwise. Too bad they had to put it in the chorus, where it gets repeated over and over :P

Dirty Lyrics:
"Siberia"
The Dirty Lyrics: Put away completely,
you just couldn't see me, I was sleeping in your bed. Someone else was on your mind.. in your head. Why They're Dirty: This was another one of those 'make you think' lyrics. Forget about Never Gone being a more 'mature' album. I think that's just their way of saying that most of the songs on this album are filthy as hell.

| "My Beautiful Woman"
The Dirty Lyrics: And so I put the top down
to take you driving downtown I guess we'll know just what to do. When we're lookin to fool around it's too late to stop me. I know we're gonna get down. Why They're Dirty: I was singing this song in my bedroom and I started to laugh. My mother said what? I pointed to my CD player and I sang the lyric to her. Then she asked me if I knew what the lyric meant? I said 'it's a song about cheating.' My mother said 'you'd better find out what that means?'?

What A Band is Best Known For (aside from their music):
"Backing Out Of Their Management Contracts"
The Backstreet Boys were taken under the tutalage of Louis Pearlman who was boy band swengali and the band's creator when they suddenly realized that they were making more money than they getting The Boys ended up suing Trans-Continental Entertainment to get out of their management deal with Pearlman. After a full year of legal wrangling they were let out of their management deal with Trans-Con and were free to sign on to Wright Entertainment Group to handle their money. The group alledged that Pearlman took more money than he was entitled to.
