Jokes:

Q. Why did Scott Stapp choke to death on a Gobstopper in a crowded restaurant?

Band Name Origins:

  • They got the name Creed when Jesus came to Scott in a dream and said "Spread my word. Spread my Creed." Then Jesus gave him the lyrics to "Higher" Submitted by: Robert Jones
  • Scott Stapp originally wanted to name the band Naked Toddler, after a newpaper clipping that he kept in his walet. Brian Marshall was in a band called Marshall's Creed, and as they were tossing out names they decided to go with Creed, as it is a strong belief in something, and they believed in what they were doing, the music they were making, and it all being about the super jackpot.

Song Parody Fragments:

"What's This Life For?"
Better Lyrics:
I thought I told you before
No need to tell me your low golf score
'Cause we all play under the rules of one course
So don't you brag anymore
Now don't you gloat about your low golf scores
'Cause we all play under the rules of one course.
Original Lyrics:
But they ain't here anymore
Don't have to settle no god damn score
Cause we all live under the reign of one king
But they ain't here anymore
Don't have to settle no god damn score
'Cause we all live under the reign of one king.

"Higher"
Better Lyrics:
Can you take me to Meijer?
The Super-Huge-Mega-Store.
I need a washer and drier,
That'll be broken 'fore I reach the door.
But let's go there
Let's make that mistake
C'mon Let's go there
Let's ask 'Is this fake?'
Original Lyrics:
Can you take me higher
to a place where blind men see
can you take me higher
to a place with golden streets
let's go there
Let's make our escape
C'mon let's go there
let's ask 'Can We Stay?'

Funniest Song Lyrics:

The Funny Lyrics:
I think they shoot me 'cause they want me!

Repetitive Song Lyrics:

The Repetitive Lyrics:
One oh one
Why They're Repetitive:
That song was hard to write :-) OK, now we've heard enough of 101 - let's move on to 102!

"Signs"
The Repetitive Lyrics:
Can't you see the signs, see the signs now...(x100)
plus can't you see them,
see the signs you see them all
the signs you see them!
Why They're Repetitive:
Gosh, like, a third of this song is can't you see the signs! I love this song, but I think Scott went overboard with the can you see the signs part. Yes, Scott, we see them, but we'd see them a lot easier if you didn't bug us about it so much!!! Lol.

Nonsensical Song Lyrics:

"Higher"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Can you take me higher, to a place where blind men see?
Why They're Nonsensical:
Blind people, by definition, are incapable of seeing, but he probably means this in a figurative way.
Submitted by: Michael S.
"What If"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
What if eye for an eye?
Why They're Nonsensical:
Now, I'm no English professor, but what the hell kind of a question is that? There's no verb, so it's not a complete sentence at all. I'm sure others would be baffled by this line as well.

Insincere Song Lyrics:

"My Sacrifice"
The Insincere Lyrics:
My Sacrifice
Why They're Insincere:
Okay, I've looked at the lyrics to this song a thousand times. I still don't see whats being sacrificed. I mean, really... its not even a metaphor. Which means they probably think they've given up so much to be rich and famous off of run-of-the-mill christian rock. That and all the equating of their singer to Jesus in their videos... how pretentious can one get? Pathetic....

Misrhymed Song Lyrics:

"Wash Away Those Years"
The Misrhymed Lyrics:
For we have crossed many oceans

"Quotients" doesn't rhyme with "oceans". However, "mean" does rhyme with "between".

"One Last Breath"
The Misrhymed Lyrics:
Sad eyes follow me,
But I still believe there's something there for me,
So please come stay with me,
Cuz I still believe there's something there for you and me,
for you and me.
Why They're Misrhymed:
ok Stapp! You can not! rhyme me with itself...let alone 4 times consecutively! what ever happened to all those good lyrics of yours? This is disgraceful!
