Nonsensical Song Lyrics:
"Hands Down"
The Nonsensical Lyrics: Safe in here from all the stupid questions
Hey did you get some? Man that is so dumb Stay quiet, Stay near, Stay close, they won't hear So we can get some Why They're Nonsensical: The song is entirely redundant, or at least these lines are. First Chris says that asking if someone 'got some' is 'dumb,' but then he follows it up with the suggestion to 'get some'. It's redundant!

Dirty Song Lyrics:
"Rooftops and Invitations"
The Dirty Lyrics: The city longs well for rooftops and invitations
All lace in secret places She moves you to touch with her hands... (Chorus) Under the cold sheet Where the welcomed touch of skin and skin will meet Out on the inside Where a girl's prize is at the tip of your tongue... Why They're Dirty: It's pretty self-explanitory. Just read them.
Submitted by: Cindy
| "Vindicated"
The Dirty Lyrics: So turn
up the corners of your lips Bite them and feel my finger tips Trace the moment for forever Defense is paper thin Just one touch and I'll be in Too deep now to ever swim against the current So let me slip away.... Why They're Dirty: hmmmm.....
