Real Lyrics -> Dumbest -> Metallica

These are lyrics by Metallica that we think are kind of dumb.


Metallica album at Amazon.com
Metallica's, "Enter Sandman"
The Dumbest Lyrics:
Something's wrong, shut the light. Heavy thoughts tonight. And they aren't of Snow White.
Why They're Dumb:
Is it just me or are these lyrics kinda corny? It sounds like a cheap rhyme. Although I love the musical part of the song to death I don't think this is the best Metallica song lyrically.

Metallica's, "Holier Than Thou"
The Dumbest Lyrics:
You are holier than thou
Why They're Dumb:
First of all, they use modern English and then middle age English right afterwards. Also, in today's language that would mean, 'You are holier than you.' It should be, 'I am holier than thou.'

Metallica's, "My World"
The Dumbest Lyrics:
Not only do I not know the answer I don't even know what the question is
Why They're Dumb:
Then what was the point of saying anything?

Metallica's, "One"
The Dumbest Lyrics:
Land mine has taken my sight Taken my speech, taken my hearing...
Why They're Dumb:
If the land mine has taken his speech, how can he be singing the song?
