Story about this misheard lyric by: Mel I was probably 6 when this song came out. I really liked the way it sounded but I had no clue what she was saying (especially since I didn't understand the context of the song). I didn't have a clue what a "popperdome" could have been, but I thought it had to do with a church, lol! |

The Funny Lyrics: Papa don't preach, I've been losing sleep
But I made up my mind I'm gonna keep my baby! Why They're Funny: I'm sure Pope John Paul ('Papa') was very satisfied with this: she promises not to have an abortion. This kind of obedience is, well, becoming rare among Roman catholics...

Repetitive Lyrics:

Don't repress yourself. Why They're Repetitive: Over and over again. We know you have a point of view Madge but is it really necessary to repeat it 30 or 40 xs?
Submitted by: Celeste
| "Hollywood"
The Repetitive Lyrics: Everybody comes to Hollywood
They wanna make it in the neighbourhood They like the smell of it in Hollywood How can it hurt you when it looks so good? Why They're Repetitive: How Madonna actually thought rhyming three words with each other practically throughout this song ('good', 'wood' and 'hood') was, er, good, I'll never know but it's definitely one of the dumbest songs lyrically she's ever done

Insincere Lyrics:
"I Love New York"
The Insincere Lyrics: Los Angeles is for people who sleep
Paris and London Baby you can keep Why They're Insincere: '...London, baby you can keep', eh? Considering this song is about how Madonna supposedly considers NY to be transcendentally better than the other cities, it makes you wonder why she even made all the effort in adulterating her voice to sound like someone trying to do a posh Queen's accent (and failing) and moved over to live in London in the first place. Strange, strange love she has there...
Submitted by: Devil Jones
| "Music"
The Insincere Lyrics: Music makes the people come together
Why They're Insincere: I severely doubt this if that aforesaid 'music' happens to be in the form of this song of yours, Madonna. If you're going to make a song called 'Music', ensure next time around that it not only has a specific layout but also at least something essential called a 'tune'.

Inappropriate Lyrics:
"American Life"
The Inappropriate Lyrics: I guess I did it wrong
That's why I wrote this song Why They're Inappropriate: Why do some artists feel the need to indicate explicitly that they wrote the song(s) they're singing, or even worse, they're singing the song at that very moment? It's not as if, for instance, a poet during his/her stanzas suddenly breaks out with 'I wrote these rhymes' or directly within a painting the artist paints somewhere, on the fabricated door or something, a tag like 'Bilal did this 2K4'. It's just so obvious it doesn't need any clarification, whether it be autonomous or by someone else. 'Songwriter-dropping' is irritatingly contrived. To make things worse, usually the aforementioned dropped line usually pursues a line that happens to have 'wrong' on the end of it. Cliches? Who said anything about those...?
Submitted by: Devil Jones
| "American Life"
The Inappropriate Lyrics: I drive my Mini Cooper And I'm feeling super-dooper Yo they tell I'm a trooper Why They're Inappropriate: This is Madonna's lame and pathetic attempt at rapping. She goes on to whine about all the things she has - which is more than most people - and confirms that she's not really satisfied. Poor, poor, Miss Rich is unhappy with her untold luxury.... ah, bless! Sympathy is very much lacking from me!

What A Band is Best Known For (aside from their music):
"Being accused of "faking it" at her concerts"
As Elton John was accepting the award for "best live act" at the MTV Europe Music Awards he blurted out "since when is lipsyncing live?"? as a response to the fact that Madonna was nominated in the same category as he was. Madonna's reps fired back saying that all of her shows are 100% live and that there wasn't any lipsyncing at any of her concerts. Elton later appologized for the offensive remark.
