The Police's, "De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
De do do do, de da da da
Is all I have to say to you
Why They're Nonsensical:
I have to ask, who in the heck goes up to a person and says 'De do do do, de da da da?' Wouldn't they be considered a mental case? It's like baby talk for goodness sake!

The Police's, "De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
De do do do, de da da da
They're meaningless and all that's true
Why They're Nonsensical:
At least you got that right, Sting.

The Police's, "Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
It's a big enough umbrella
but it's me who always ends up getting wet.
Why They're Nonsensical:
It can't be that big an umbrella if Sting is the one who always ends up getting wet.

The Police's, "King Of Pain"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
There's a king on a throne with his eyes torn out
Why They're Nonsensical:
"Eyes torn out"?! I don't know that that's possible. He may be blind, or have been born with optical problems, or might've even had some surgical operations near them, but I doubt that they'd be "torn out"...that just doesn't make any sense.

The Police's, "King Of Pain"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
There's a little black spot on the sun today
Why They're Nonsensical:
Eh? How can he tell? Surely he'd be blind if he tried to stare at the sun that hard...

The Police's, "King Of Pain"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
There's a skeleton choking on a crust of bread.
Why They're Nonsensical:
Who would feed a skeleton a crust of bread? Isn't it obvious that it can't swallow a crumb of bread, let alone a crust?
