| "The Motown Song" | The only mention of the word "Motown" is in the lyrics "Bring over some of your old Motown records." However, nowhere in the song is the word Motown preceded by "the" or followed by "song." - Isac |
| "The Killing Of Georgie" | Like a lot of Rod's best songs, the lyrics tell a story - Eddie2112 |
| "Maggie May" | Only the title calls the subject "Maggie May". In the lyrics, she is referred to only as "Maggie". - Emmy Kay Butanone |

Dirty Song Lyrics:

Upbeat Songs With Depressing Lyrics:
"Maggie May"
The Lyrics: Oh Maggie, I wish I'd never seen your face.
You made a first-class fool out of me, But I'm as blind as a fool can be. You stole my heart but I love you anyway. Why: This song has an upbeat tune, but it is hard to choose what lines best express the ambivalent love-hate angst being expressed in the lyrics. It might look encouraging early on when he tells Maggie "But that don't bother me none; in my eyes you're everything.". But as the lyrics further unfold, "everything" seems to include the superbly bad as well as the superbly good. In short, what we have here is a rousing tune about a dysfunctional lover that the singer can't leave, despite the fact that she's made his life a disaster zone if the lyrics can be taken seriously.
