#5 one thing by one direction

"...i don't, i don't, 
don't know what it is,
but i need that one thing.

you've got that one thing!..."

erm, so you have no idea
what you need so much of,
and what on earth is the one thing?

i hope they're not referring to a d&#k.

#4 the real slim shady by eminem.

"...i'm slim shady, yes i'm the real shady,
all you other slim shady's are just imitating,
so won't the real slim shady please stand up,
please stand up, please stand up?..."

now, first of all we're told twice that he's
the real slim shady, and he can't even see
himself, so he needs to ask himself to stand up.

and secondly, there aren't many people
out there who are named slim shady at all.
and quite frankly, noone even WANTS to.

#3 u can't touch this by mc hammer;

"...u can't touch this, u can't touch this,
u can't touch this, yeah, u can't touch this,

i told you, u can't touch this, too hype, 

can't touch this, get way outta here, 

u can't touch this..."

ok, first of all, touch WHAT?

secondly, we get it maaan, we can't touch it.

and finally, don't you think we don't even WANT to?

for pete's sake.

#2 i want it that way from the backstreet boys

"...ain't nothin but a heartache,
ain't nothin but a mistake,
i never wanna hear you say,
i want it that way..."

so, when the backstreet boys tell us
that they don't want it that way,
what WAY are they actually talking about?

maybe it's north.

now, one of my new favourite pastime is to find
lyrics to rather famous and catchy songs,
but actually makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

please welcome Songs That Make No Sense!

example #1; wannabe by the spice girls;

"...yo i'll tell you what i want, what i really really want,
so tell me what you want, what you really really want,
i'll tell you what i want, what i really really want,
so tell me what you want, what you really really want, 
i wanna, i wanna, i wanna, i wanna, 
i wanna really really really wanna zigazig ha..."

so they've managed to tell you what they really really want
OR what we really really really want from them,
only to find out noone knows what EITHER of us wants.

brilliant.
