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"
(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.

What is wrong with this lyric? It makes perfect sense..."Sunday" is the day that she dosen't have work or run errands-Duh!

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.

I dont get why this lyric made the list,, there's nothing really wrong with it.. and why have I not seen lyrics from "Fergilicious" or "My Hump" on this list??? BOth full of dumb lyrics!

Hell. theres too many days n the friggin lyric.and quote "now prince is just messing with us"
joe reedat 3-27-2007
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?
Marcat 3-27-2007
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.
Lauraat 3-27-2007
I love this song what are these people talking about???
Toby allenat 3-27-2007
