The Offspring's, "Cool To Hate"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Liking something is just a waste of time
Why They're Nonsensical:
If the guys in this band don't want people to like anything, people won't like the band and nobody will listen to them.

The Offspring's, "Gotta Get Away"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Think I'm on a roll, but I think it's kinda weak,
I said all I know is I gotta get away from me
I said all I know is I gotta get away from me
Why They're Nonsensical:
How can you get away from yourself? I mean, like another song points out, you can run, but you won't get too far!

Offspring's, "Pretty Fly (For A White Guy)"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
But in his own mind
He's the dopest trip!
He's the dopest trip!
Why They're Nonsensical:
What exactly does it mean to be a dopest trip?

The Offspring's, "Walla Walla"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
I'll see you in Walla Walla
Folsom Prison is the destination
Folsom Prison is the destination
Why They're Nonsensical:
It's impossible to see someone in the Washington State Penitentiary in Walla Walla if Folsom Prison is their destination. These are two different prisons.

Offspring's, "Want You Bad"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
I know your arms are open wide.
But you're a little on the straight side.
I can't lie.
But you're a little on the straight side.
I can't lie.
Why They're Nonsensical:
What is the straight side? When I think of straight, I think of not gay. So does that mean that he's singing about finding a gay lover?
