Petula Clark's, "Downtown"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
And you may find somebody kind to help and understand you,
Someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand to
Guide them along.
Someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand to
Guide them along.
Why They're Nonsensical:
Sorry, but no two people are just alike.

Petula Clark's, "Downtown"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city
Why They're Nonsensical:
The sounds of traffic (running engines, honking car horns, squealing tires, etc.) are not music, even at the time this song was made.

Petula Clark's, "I Know A Place"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Every day when the work is behind you,
and the shop and the store
put the lock on the door
and the shop and the store
put the lock on the door
Why They're Nonsensical:
So the buildings themselves lock up their doors, without the aid of people doing said task? I don't get it.
