The 20 Worst Lyrics Ever: No. 11

"I wish it was Sunday
That's my fun day
My I-don't-have-to-run day"

--The Bangles' 'Manic Monday'
(lyrics by Prince)

We're cool with the easy rhymes of Monday to Sunday, and even Sunday to fun day, but "I-don't-have-to-run day"? No, now Prince is just messing with us.

I don't think that's the issue. It makes pefect sense, but it's just a stupid line. A very, very, outrageously stupid line. People write poetry like this in Junior High. That's the point.

I agree. I don't think there's anything wrong with the lyrics. It's a great song. That's one of my favorite lines, actually.

I think they are just running out of lyrics, because it sounds like they are pulling them out of their butt.

right, prince is messing with us. so, it don't count as a bad lyris if it was meant to be one. only ones like eminem's that are crass AND juvenile and take themselves too seriously cvount as bad lyrics. before i continue, did barry manilow make this list?

Hey, they (and Prince) summed up the laid-back feeling of Sunday in some pleasant, simple words. Why work hard to describe a day of fun? This song doesn't sleep in...it rocks out.
