The 20 Worst Lyrics Ever: No. 2


"War is stupid

And people are stupid"

--Culture Club's 'War Song'


Boy George again, and this time he's illin' like Bob Dylan. We wrote a song just like this in seventh grade, but the next line was, "And your mom is stupid."

I just have to say, I know nothing about this artist or this song, and quite honestly, could care less. And although I totally disagree almost completely with this entire list (especially Elton John), I have to admit that this expose after these lyrics made me laugh out loud!

Although this song does indeed suck, people are stupid. War has its moments.

So, Boy George is really inot repitition, huh? This line is true, but it could have been written better. I could write it better, but I would not want to piss off Boy George. He has had so amny face lifts he looks like an angry baby.

just about tired of the "this line makes perfect sense" argument. Even if the line "makes sense" it can still be terrible. This lyric is pure garbage. Just goes to show you that all you need is some decent musicians, a top producer, and a pretty face to make it.

may be the author was annoyed because he felt he is one of the "people" so he listed this lyric as the 2nd worst ever...the author considers himself/herself not stupid... you people should not deal with writers, because they might write something about you...and you might not like it...culture club should have mentioned that writers are not included in the "people"...:-) too bad for culture club...
