(I have a feeling this thread might get a little bit explicit, so I figured I'd add a political correctness/trigger warning for those who might not be amused.)

We all know them.

Songs with lyrics that are disturbing. Weird. Unusual. Even a little shameful, or so overly sexual they're cheesy and hilarious. Violent, suggestive, creepy, whatever. Everyone knows a disturbing lyric, or a disturbing song.

The idea for this thread came to me about the time I haphazardly stumbled upon Warrant's 80s hit "Cherry Pie" where I was greeted with a line that makes me cringe/giggle:

I mixed up the batter, she licked the beaters.

Outrank this, and outrank it hard. Let's have some disturbing song lyrics here.

Here's one of my favourites.

Sparks - "Young Girls"



I like their arms.
I like their legs.
I like their lips, their widening hips.
Their radios.

They live at home.
They don't have cars.
I have a home.
I have a car.
They like that, they like that.

Young girls haven't seen the whole night.
And they will hold you, though it might not be tight
And they will kiss you, though it might not be right
'Cause they are young girls

Young girls, I don't care what they say
I want to have you each and every day
I feel you, I don't care what they say
Young girls

I like their talk
Small little words
I like their style
Less of the guile
They're straight with you

Don't analyse, don't analyse
You've seen too much
I like the touch of young girls,
Young girls

Young girls haven't seen the whole night
And they will hold you, though it might not be tight
And they will kiss you, though it might not be right
'Cause they are young girls

Young girls, I don't care what they say
I want to have you each and every day
I feel you, I don't care what they say
Young girls

I'm guessing that I'm probably the only person on site that likes anything by Limp Bizkit, but these lyrics always get me pumped up. Also a song that I like to play when I'm pissed off. I can release that pissed off energy through the song as opposed to saying or doing something else that would be far worse (not that I'm that type of person.... but, gah, I'm digging a hole aren't I?)

Limp Bizkit - Break Stuff (lyrics in the vid)




I even like it when I'm in a good mood. Still, considered to be riot-inducing lyrics.

You're not the only one. I will admit to liking some of Limp Bizkit's stuff too.

All the songs off of Captain Beefheart's Trout Mask Replica would easily fall into this category. But the one song off this album that sticks out in my mind is this...




Well
Light floats down day river on uh red raft o' blood
Night blocks out d' heavens like uh big black shiny bug
Its hard soft shell shinin' white in one spot well
It's uh hard place dat I'm livin' but I'm doin' well well
The white ice horse melted like uh spot uh silver well
Its mane went last then disappeared the tail
My life ran thru my veins
Whistlin' hollow well
I froze in solid motion well well
I heard the ocean swarmin' body well well
I heard the beetle clickin' well
I sensed the thickest silence scream
Then I begin t' dream
My mind cracked like custard
Ran red until it sealed
Turn t' wooden 'n rolled like uh wheel well well
Thick black felt birds uh flyin'
With capes of solid chrome
With feathers of solid chrome
'n beaks of solid bone
'n bleach the air around them
White 'n cold well well
Till it's shown in pain
The hollow cane clicked like ever after
Its shadow vanished shinin' silence
well well



The fact that there is no music in the background, just the Captain's dark and ominous voice echoing through the ears of the listener is more than enough to make someone's skin crawl.
