Yey I saw sparks fly, from the corner of my eye
When I turned, it was love at first sight
I said please excuse me, I didn't catch your name
Oh it'd be a shame not to see you again
And just when I thought she was comin' to my door
She whispered sweet and brought me to the floor, she said
I'm only seventeen (seventeen)
But I'll show you love like you've never seen
She's only seventeen (seventeen)
Daddy says she's too young, but she's old enough for me
Come to my place, we can talk it over
Oh everything going down in your head
She said take it easy, I need some time
Time to work it out, to make you mine
And just when I thought she was comin' to my door
She whispered sweet and brought me to the floor, she said
I'm only seventeen (seventeen),
You ain't seen love, ain't seen nothing like me
She's only seventeen, seventeen yeah yea
Yes! Such a bad girl, loves to work me overtime
Feels good (ha), dancin' close to the borderline
She's a magic mountain, she's a leather glove
Oh she's my soul, it must be love
She's only seventeen (seventeen)
I used to give her love, like I've never seen
She's only seventeen (seventeen)
Daddy says she's too young, but she's old enough for me (seventeen)
She's everything I need (seventeen)
Daddy says she's too young
But she's old enough, old enough for me

How could I forget Paul Simon's immortal couplet:

you read your Emily Dickinson
And I my Robert Frost


And as I've posted here before, I've been on the Causeway Bridge during a terrible storm. The mere fact that you are on a bridge most definitely does not ease your troubled mind.

The lyrics to "Subdivisions" by Rush are absolutely awful. Embarrassingly bad.

The song still kicks arse, though.

Elenore gee I think you’re swell
And you really do me well
You’re my pride and joy et cetera

Yeah I know the story about the song and it was all a sarcastic parody but still.

From one of the GOAT songs:

"The movement you need is on your shoulder"

WTF does this even mean?

Per Paul this was what's called a "dummy lyric", put in place to give you an idea of the scanning/rhythm etc before you write the lyric you want to use

Paul says when they got into the studio he wanted to change it but John said "No! That's the best line in the song."

Another dummy lyric of Paul's:

"Scrambled eggs
Someday soon you'll have to shave your legs..."


You probably know this better as "Yesterday"

maybe he objected to them politically

it's an interesting phenomenon I alluded to in my first post: printed out, it's hard to tell great rock lyrics from shitty ones

I've actually always really liked these lyrics. They're kind of cool in a tongue-in-cheek kind of way.

As a huge Scorpions fan, I can't disagree.

RYLAH is one of my least favorite Scorpion songs.

Having said that remember, these are German dudes writing English songs, so.....
