<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Diddy:</div><div class="quote_post">"Young, black and famous With money hangin' Out the anus"</div> I didn't think this was too bad.
The U2 line was not bad. Plus The Bangles: I wish it was Sunday That's my fun day My I-don't-have-to-run day That is not bad lyrics, that is good pop lyrics written by Prince. Whoever wrote this article wishes he had U2 or Prince level talent. just another hater

I was going to list more after "Jesus Walks," but then I realized that I'd have to basically list off all the songs on my rap playlist.
Listing the 20 worst lyrics will always be harder than listing the 20 best. There's just so much crap out there. Nice find, M.

Anyway, as for the greatest lyric? Hmm... there are really a lot of things that make lyrics great, whether it be their message, their poetic qualities, or something else along those lines.

You, just like Mamba, only rank one higher then the other become you have different interests. Now can we all stop the arguing of rap and rock on here? Otherwise there's going to be more thread cleaning to do with a topic of discussion between two genres of music that can't even be compared to begin with.

Mamba said rap is full of atrocious lyrics and I'm saying pretty much all genres including rock is full of atrocious lyrics too as evident in the list.
That's basically what I just wrote. When I asked to stop the arguing after I wasn't pointing that at you though, sorry if you thought that man. I meant all of us. Anyway, all genres of music have their fair share of trash music and lyrics. That's just how it is.
