This rhythm makes me hot

Funny Lyrics:

"Its All For You"
The Funny Lyrics:
you've got a nice package alright i guess i'm going to have to ride it 2nite!
Why They're Funny:
hahah well do i really need to explain?!
Submitted by: boob
"Son Of A Gun"
The Funny Lyrics:
I bet you think this song is about you? Don't you?
Why They're Funny:
Janet says that she's not taking pock shots at her ex-husband. I think that this is a 'get revenge on the ex-husband' thing.
Submitted by: Celeste

Repetitive Lyrics:

"Someone To Call My Lover"
The Repetitive Lyrics:
Ay ay Ay ay Ay ay Ay ay (repeat 4 times)
Why They're Repetitive:
catchy for sure, but saying Ay Ay Ay all the time is reason enough why she hasn't got a lover
Submitted by: Alex
"Son of a Gun"
The Repetitive Lyrics:
I bet you think this song is aobut you?
Don't you?
Why They're Repetitive:
Janet your husband dumped you. Get over it!
Submitted by: Celeste
There are additional repetitive lyrics available.

Nonsensical Lyrics:

"Velvet Rope"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Come with me inside
Inside my velvet rope
Why They're Nonsensical:
Unless 'Velvet Rope' happens to be a car, club or any other enterable object, I don't think I need to explain myself in my suggestion as to why these lyrics are nonsense. Or maybe this is a really huge rope, in fact so huge that each fibre is recognisable, therefore one is able to see the individual threads and somehow clamber in between each?
Submitted by: Devil Jones
"Son Of A Gun"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Clouds in my coffee
Why They're Nonsensical:
??? I can't figure out what clouds in her coffee have to do with the rest of the song... lemme know if you know
Submitted by: MC Syko
There are additional nonsensical lyrics available.

Insincere Lyrics:

"Nasty"
The Insincere Lyrics:
All you nasty boys
don't mean a thing to me
Why They're Insincere:
Tell that to Rene Elizando.
Submitted by: Celeste
"Son Of A Gun"
The Insincere Lyrics:
Hoo hoo, son of a gun,
greedy, greedy, greedy man.
Why They're Insincere:
Okay. I can understand the whole 'revenge of the ex' angle that this song has going but I know hostility when I hear it and Janet sounds as if she has a lot of il-feelings towards her ex. You don't write a vengeful and hateful song about someone and then deny about who its about.
Submitted by: Celeste
There are additional insincere lyrics available.

Misrhymed Lyrics:

"Twenty foreplay"
The Misrhymed Lyrics:
The sunlight on your face
As the day begins to break
Why They're Misrhymed:
No comments ...

"Someone to Call my Lover"
The Misrhymed Lyrics:
Maybe we'll meet at a bar,
He'll drive a funky car,
Maybe we'll meet at a club,
And fall so deeply in love.
He'll tell me I'm the one,
And we'll have so much fun,
I'll be the girl of his dreams,
Maybe.
Why They're Misrhymed:
Half of these are stretched or aren't rhymes. bar-car=What does it matter if a guy drives a cool car or a crappy one?? club-love=Don't rhyme. one-fun=Okay I guess. dreams-maybe=Come on!! This is just my personal opinion. I like the song, but I don't like the lyrics. I don't know why. Ignore me. I tend to get annoying. Like right now. I know a song that gets on everybody's nerves......

"Like You Don't Love Me"
The Dirty Lyrics:
Damn is that all I get from you
'Bout to give me an attitude
You need to make love to me
Like you don't love me

Don't have to be gentle tonight
Just be an animal tonight
You need to make love to me
Like you don't love me
Why They're Dirty:
This is an ode to casual sex.
