Our Lady Peace's, "Annie"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
There's something in the way she explains to me
'Please be careful, I exist in someone else's head'
'Please be careful, I exist in someone else's head'
Why They're Nonsensical:
How can you talk with someone that exists in someone else's head? And why do you have to be careful because of this?

Our Lady Peace's, "Automatic Flowers"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Another brick
Another window frames confusion
Her garden booms
But Sara can't see straight
She's drinking herself blind
Another window frames confusion
Her garden booms
But Sara can't see straight
She's drinking herself blind
Why They're Nonsensical:
The entire song is nonsensical.....this is just a memorable sentence. And for whats-her/his-name, 'Stealing Babies' is about a little girl with cancer who goes around to comfort other children with cancer, then dies before she's finished. Knowing that, these lines put are obviously about death.

Our Lady Peace's, "Clumsy"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Throw away the radio,
Suitcase keeps you awake,
Hide the telephone, telephone,
Telephone in case,
You realize that sometimes,
You're just not okay.
Suitcase keeps you awake,
Hide the telephone, telephone,
Telephone in case,
You realize that sometimes,
You're just not okay.
Why They're Nonsensical:
I love this song, but it almost like they couldn't think of any other way to make the song a little longer. Instead, they just tossed random words into the first verse so it would almost rhyme, adding about a minute to the total playtime. 'Suitcase keeps you awake'? What's that all about?

Our Lady Peace's, "Is Anybody Home?"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
White teeth, a ticket to meet God
And be all that you envy
The shotgun under your bed has started breathing
You shot it, you shot it
And I'm bare, I'm bare
And be all that you envy
The shotgun under your bed has started breathing
You shot it, you shot it
And I'm bare, I'm bare
Why They're Nonsensical:
Is it me, or are these just a bunch of randomly-written lines? I can't figure out what the hell this is supposed to mean.

Our Lady Peace's, "Is Anybody Home"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Tonight, your faith has come down
To money & a tv
Psychics who've never been to Mars
And nazis breast feeding
I know you must be upset I can't find meaning
To money & a tv
Psychics who've never been to Mars
And nazis breast feeding
I know you must be upset I can't find meaning
Why They're Nonsensical:
Well, I can't find meaning either! Could anyone explain the psychics and nazis part?

Our Lady Peace's, "Lying Awake"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Running away from the breast of your busy giant healing machine
Why They're Nonsensical:
I have no idea what is being talking about in this line, but it sounds good for some reason. Still, it confuses me nonetheless.

Our Lady Peace's, "Somewhere Out There"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Watch the riddles glow,
Watch them float away
Watch them float away
Why They're Nonsensical:
How can riddles glow or float? I thought they were just composed of words.

Our Lady Peace's, "Somewhere Out There"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
You're falling out of reach
Defying gravity
Defying gravity
Why They're Nonsensical:
If you're falling, you're not defying gravity. That means gravity is actually working, because it's pulling you down! Duh! Middle school science, anyone?

Our Lady Peace's, "Stealing Babies"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Eve stands alone
By the knock on the door
By the thin in her bones
She's courageous and loving
Exhausted and cold
She's not ready to go
So the ghost on the phone
Helps her safely into her dream
By the knock on the door
By the thin in her bones
She's courageous and loving
Exhausted and cold
She's not ready to go
So the ghost on the phone
Helps her safely into her dream
Why They're Nonsensical:
Do you know what it's supposed to mean??? well, neither do I. The "ghost on the phone" line is the most baffling.

Our Lady Peace's, "Superman's Dead"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
I'm thinking Why ...yeah superman's dead
...yeah is it in my head
...yeah we'll just laugh instead
Owwwwww worry about the weather and
Whether or not you should hate
...yeah is it in my head
...yeah we'll just laugh instead
Owwwwww worry about the weather and
Whether or not you should hate
Why They're Nonsensical:
Superman's not dead, he's just paralyzed, so stop thinking about it already! Send Christopher Reeve some flowers instead 'cause he got majorly dissed on South Park!

Our Lady Peace's, "Superman's Dead"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Why is Superman dead? Why is it in my head?
Ah, We'll just laugh instead
Ya worry 'bout the weather and whether or not you should hate!
Ah, We'll just laugh instead
Ya worry 'bout the weather and whether or not you should hate!
Why They're Nonsensical:
Ok, the last line there is just scary! The way Raine screeches it makes it totally unintelligible. The song is about how modern kids are corrupted by TV and sex, etc. instead of doing old-fashioned childhood things (such as watching Superman, for instance), so it was saying the Superman genre was dead, not the actor. In any case, that lone does not go with the rest of the song.....makes no sense!

Our Lady Peace's, "Tomorrow Never Knows"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Listen to the colour of your dreams
Why They're Nonsensical:
How does one listen to a color of anything?? And dreams?? This line is nonsensical in more ways than one!
