Andrew Lloyd Webber's, "Any Dream Will Do"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
But the whole world was sleeping
Why They're Nonsensical:
The whole world can't be sleeping at once. That's because we have time zones!

Andrew Lloyd Webber's, "Any Dream Will Do"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
I closed my eyes, drew back the curtain
To see for certain, what I thought I knew
Far far away, someone was weeping
But the world was sleeping
Any dream will do
To see for certain, what I thought I knew
Far far away, someone was weeping
But the world was sleeping
Any dream will do
Why They're Nonsensical:
I love this musical - Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat - but these lines make no sense! He closes his eyes to look for something, then what he discovers is that someone is far away is weeping-how the heck would you know that from looking out a window? And if you did, surely you'd hear it from that distance, not see it! And if the whole world is sleeping, why is somebody crying? And what does 'any dream will do' have to do with any of that? I crack up every time I hear it.

Andrew Lloyd Webber's, "Any Dream Will Do"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
I closed my eyes
Drew back the curtain
To see for certain
Drew back the curtain
To see for certain
Why They're Nonsensical:
There's a plot hole here. How can you see anything if you close your eyes? Especially if you drew back the curtain? You'd have to do that with your eyes open too!
