Black Sabbath's, "Paranoid"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Finished with my woman 'cause she couldn't help me with my life.
People think I'm insane because I am frowning all the time.
Make a joke and I will sigh, and you will laugh, and I will cry.
Happiness I cannot feel and love to me is so unreal.
Why They're Nonsensical:
Ozz, the condition you suffer from is called melancholia, or just plain depression. Maybe that's why you take Prozac. But, paranoia is an unfounded fear of persecution. Where in this song is the singer paranoid? Dock Ozzy another point in the nonsense category for making many people think that paranoid is synonymous with fear: 'Like, I'm really paranoid about flying.'
