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.

Um, these lyrics fucking rule. Have you lost your mind?

Glorified Version of a pelican has to be up there

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

This reminds me of that Key & Peele skit about Ray Parker Jr.

I listened to some of the new Megadeth songs (are they always this bad?) and the lyrics are hilarious

Surely you've listened to the masterpiece that is Rust In Peace?

sorry I didn't realise you liked guns

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

Glorified G is a terrible, goofy song.

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.

Yeah, I feel ya. But I do listen to Maiden sometimes for that galloping bass goodness.

Love Maiden, but Megadeth has always sucked.
