PA. Lines: 35 [bug avoidance] Well, those previously cited Morrisonian lyrics might be considered bad in grammar and structure, but I know many more that are much worse. Has anyone out there ever listened to the "An American Prayer" album? Here goes... Taxis from Africa, the Grand Hotel There was a party last night He was drunk Back,going back in all directions Sleeping these insane hours... I'll never wake up in a good mood again! I'm sick of these stinky boots.... or for a change of pace, This other kingdom seems by far the best Until its ugly jaw reveals incest and Loose obedience to a vegetable law. I will not go. I prefer a feast of friends to the giant family. or even worse, the entire "Lament", which I would be embarassed to quote from... Even though these are shining examples of bad lyrics, I am still heavily into Jim Morrison and the Doors, as I have been for many years. Just because it's bad doesn't mean it's not enjoyable...
