This Twitter Account Shares ‘Lyrics You’d Never Believe Are Real, But They All Are’ And Here’re 30 Of Their Top Posts (New Pics)
Music is one of humanity's oldest forms of self-expression. Whether we're talking about parents soothingly humming to their infants or the background in our favorite movies and TV shows, it's all around us.
There are many elements to a song and equally as many reasons why they stick with us. A tune might live in our head because of its rhythm and melody, so it's no wonder if we miss a part of its other components. Like, for example, lyrics.
Luckily, there are ways to refresh our memory. Funny ones, too. Take the fun little online project called 'Lyrics Without Context.' As the name suggests, it shares random phrases that artists have recorded, and let me tell you, its feed gets really ridiculous really fast.
We have already featured 'Lyrics Without Context' on Bored Panda but we couldn't stop ourselves from returning to it. Enjoy!

I think you will find that was actually written by Billy Bragg in 1983
If you're gonna quote Lonely Island lyrics, they're all beyond insane.
"When out in the distance. Over the valley, I saw an old friend Waiting for me. Waiting for me. She was a young girl, She was an old soul. As fair as the ocean, Timeless and free. She was my mother, She was my daughter, She was my lover, She was everything An old friend could be." A good example of why context is wholly required.
IPhones don't need to be dead to be a useless piece of shït, just think of all the idiots texting and driving.
Mark: "I wrote this song on Christmas Eve, because I was way behind on wrapping presents, and rather then take care of the problem, I picked up a guitar and wrote a f****d up song about it. I finished wrapping them at about 3 in the morning." Dude wrote random stress induced fluff because he was stressed.
And I hope that you die, And your death will come soon, I'll follow your casket, By the pale afternoon, And I'll watch while you're lowered, Down to your deathbed, And I'll stand over your grave 'Til I'm sure that you're dead 0% bs in Dylan's music
**** My dad saw his son as a nuisance, a rebel, and my music sounds like the devil Turn that s**t off or get out of my temple
Since you looked at me. Cocked your head to the side and said "I'm angry"?
Tommy played piano like a kid out in the rain Then he lost his leg in Dallas, he was dancin' with a train They were all in love with dyin', they were drinking from a fountain That was pourin' like an avalanche comin' down the mountain
"The verses and chorus are lyrically constructed as a prejudiced attack on short people. In contrast, the bridge states that "short people are just the same as you and I." Many listeners thought that the song reflected Newman's sincere beliefs. However, Newman intended the song to be a satire about prejudice more broadly: "The guy in that song is crazy. He was not to be believed.""
To be fair the song title is piss the world off i don't know what we expected
"Who the hell you calling crazy? You wouldn't know what crazy was If Charles Manson was eating fruit loops on your front porch!" Suicidal Tendencies - You Can't Bring Me Down
"Doesn't matter if you're minor or major". Not as controversial as this out-of-context snippet makes it seem.
I had to give up about halfway through. I'm way too old for this nonsense!! Give me a good old "pompatus of love" (from Steve Miller's "The Joker") any day, lol.
They should have titled this, "Lyrics you won't believe are real, unless you've heard any of these songs."
