"Don't be offended by my frank analysis
Think of it as personality dialysis"
That isn't clever?
But, yeah. I like WICKED's music, but lyrics aren't Schwart's forte.

I don't know if its been said, but the one lyric that i hate is from RENT(even though I adore the show) is:
Think twice before you poo-poo it.
Why the hell isnt the lyric:
Think twice before you saw screw it.

"I'm a mean green mother from outer space"
I just feel like, "why?" when I hear that, it just don't like it for some reason
When someone blunders, we say that he makes a misstep. Is it then not clear that all the ills of mankind, all the tragic misfortunes that fill our history books, all the political blunders, all the failures of the great leaders have arisen merely from a lack of skill in dancing. - Moliere

I'm surprised no one has put "Gliddy glop gloopy, nibby knobby nooby na na na na no"
Just about all the lyrics in MISS SAIGON sound were apparently translated from the French and sound like it.
And CARRIE of course: "Here's the gig, you help me kill a pig." or "Was it his face? Was it his smile? I haven't felt so wonderful in quite a while"
TWO GENTLEMEN OF VERONA has mostly bum lyrics "Love love love love love love love love love love love love..."
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

Just about all of the Brooklyn sample CD was cringe-worthy.
Hmm...what else? In "What More Can I Say," the line "I sing a rondelay" always makes me want to hit something. It's the one false note in a really lovely song.
