The Who's, "Acid Queen"
The Funny Lyrics:
I'm the gypsy, the Acid Queen.
Why They're funny:
From Tina Turner, it isn't that funny. Coming from Pete Townshend, who orginally wrote the 'Tommy' rock opera and took part in singing them (and has also admitted to being a woman) it's outrageous.

The Who's, "My Generation"
The Funny Lyrics:
'Why don't you all f-f-f-ade away?'
Why They're funny:
These lyrics are class! To those who suggested Raoger Daltrey had 'a stuttering problem' - whatever! When this song was first rehearsed for recording, Roger Daltrey stumbled over the word fade because pete Townshend's writing was so untidy that he couldn't work out what it was meant to say. They all decided to keep this is and add more stuttering, which was a huge success! Also, when there was outcry about what 'other' four letter f-word was implied by the stutter, they were genuinely surprised!
