The Misfits song "Return of the Fly," about the movie of the same name, has some of the dumbest lyrics ever written. He just repeats the title over and over again and lists some cast members.

I think that's a good lyric, when it's correct; it's critiquing big macho men walking around with what is essentially a kids toy (pellet gun) as a status symbol / dick measuring contest; it's a much more witty version of the "dicks and fix and fire things" line from Clairvoyants

I used to like Megadeth. Some of the instrumentation is very good. But I have come to realize that Dave Mustaine kinda sucks.

That particular style of metal with those high-pitched vocals (Megadeth, Iron Maiden, etc.) is something I have just never warmed to at all. Does nothing for me.

Love Maiden, but Megadeth has always sucked.
