"Everybody Wants Some" from VH has some utter gibberish in the middle.

Ironically some of the least cringeworthy lyrics from this band when you realize they are all about childhood games, and it actually comes off pretty clever, combined with a crazy good solo from Nuno.

So...silly lyrics? Sure. But does it work for this song? Yep.
"Play With Me" was originally on the Pornograffiti album.

Back when Nuno was gigging with Rihanna I was hoping she would cover this song. It's the perfect high energy song to get a crowd going and I can just imaging the crowd reaction to Rih singing "Do you want to play with me?"

No, no, ride the tiger
You can see his stripes but you know he's clean
Oh don't you see what I mean

Ho Ronnie, I don’t
Raise your can of beer on high
And seal your fate forever
Our best years have past us by
The golden age of leather

It was on their self-titled debut.

His ‘Only time will tell if we stand the test of time’ lyric is my dumbest of all time. (No pun intended. ).

Don't come close to my
Home sweet home
Can't catch no dose
Of my hot tail poontang sweetheart
Sweathog ready to make a silk purse
From a J. Paul Getty and his ear
With her face in her beer

Great song, but WTF?
Came here to write another Aerosmith song.
"My Fist Your Face". More offensive than Christine 16, and who the hell is Julio Eppo Galucci?
