Patti Page's, "Cross Over The Bridge"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
I know it isn't easy to resist temptation's call.
But think of how your broken heart will hurt you when you fall.
For someday you will find that you are hopelessly in love,
And she'll belong to someone else, as sure as stars above.
But think of how your broken heart will hurt you when you fall.
For someday you will find that you are hopelessly in love,
And she'll belong to someone else, as sure as stars above.
Why They're Nonsensical:
As for those last two lines, doesn't that happen all too often, regardless of how much or how little one has "resisted temptation's call"?

Patti Page's, "Tennessee Waltz"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
I lost my little darling the night they were playing the beautiful Tennessee Waltz.
Why They're Nonsensical:
There's a name for the logical error here. It is called the error of self-reference. In this case, the song refers to itself. That would mean the song would have to have already existed while it was being written, an absurdity.
