Oasis', "Be Here Now"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Wash your face in the morning sun,
flash your pan at the song that I'm singing
Touch down bass living on the run,
make no sweat of the hole that you're digging.
flash your pan at the song that I'm singing
Touch down bass living on the run,
make no sweat of the hole that you're digging.
Why They're Nonsensical:
These guys were writing some horrendously poor lyrics when they put this album together. What is this supposed to mean? It's just vague rhyming.

Oasis', "Champagne Supernova"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Slowly walkin' down the hall,
Faster than a cannonball
Faster than a cannonball
Why They're Nonsensical:
Slowly and Faster are antonyms, so it's another nonsensical oxymoron.

Oasis', "Champagne Supernova"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Slowly walking down the hall
Faster than a cannonball
Faster than a cannonball
Why They're Nonsensical:
As others have pointed out, this doesn't make the least ounce of sense! Really, how slow is a walk that is faster than a cannonball?? Not very slow at all! And furthermore, I'm sure that cannonballs move pretty darn fast.

Oasis', "Champagne Supernova"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Some day you will find me caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova in the sky.
In a champagne supernova in the sky.
Why They're Nonsensical:
Is this supposed to mean something?? I just don't get it.

Oasis', "Shakermaker"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
I'd like to build myself a house out of plasticine
Why They're Nonsensical:
Plasticine is basically clay... so unless Noel is taking about an impossible task, I doubt he's going to have much luck with that wish.

Oasis', "Take Me Away"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Take me away, just for today, 'cause I'm sat here on my own
I'd like to be under the sea, but I'd probably need a phone.
I'd like to be under the sea, but I'd probably need a phone.
Why They're Nonsensical:
It just sounds terrible, it's quite a nice sounding chorus until Noel ruins it with his determination to get the word 'phone' into every song he writes. Oh yeah, and how is a phone supposed to work underwater?

Oasis', "Wonderwall"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
After all, you're my wonderwall
Why They're Nonsensical:
This song has always done my head completely in. What are we meant to deduce from a line like this? That he's likening his girlfriend to a wall? That she's his wonderful metaphorical wall against the blues inflicted by life? Or what,exactly? Either I'm missing something, or someone was smoking the wrong brand when they wrote this.
