Bread's, "Aubrey"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
And I'd go a thousand times around the world just to be
Closer to you than to me
Closer to you than to me
Why They're Nonsensical:
You can't get closer to another person than to yourself.

Bread's, "Everything I Own"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
I would give any thing I own,
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own, just to have you back again.
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own, just to have you back again.
Why They're Nonsensical:
If David Gates, who wrote this song (and also the yukky 'Goodbye Girl') gave up his life, i.e., committed suicide, he wouldn't be around to welcome his lost love back, would he?

Bread's, "If"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
If a man could be two places at one time
I'd be with you
Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way
I'd be with you
Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way
Why They're Nonsensical:
Dude, you don't need to be in two places at one time to be with your girlfriend today and tomorrow. Just, like, go visit her, stay put and see what happens when the sun rises.

Bread's, "If"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
If a picture paints a thousand words
Then why can't I paint you?
Then why can't I paint you?
Why They're Nonsensical:
I wonder that myself, because the word 'you' has only three letters. Maybe it's choosing the color that's so vexing.

Bread's, "Let Your Love Go"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
'Cause I been tastin' the love you been wastin'
Why They're Nonsensical:
Love is an emotion, not something that can be tasted.
