Good Song: Christmas in Hollis by Run DMC
Bad Lyrics: One of the first Christmas rap hits, but inarguably a home to some bad lyrics.
I approached very slowly with my heart full of fear
Looked at his dog, oh my God, an illin’ reindeer
All rappers are innately afraid of sick animals.
But then I was illin’ because the man had a beard
Also, they fear men with beards.
A million dollars in it, cold hundreds of G’s
Enough to buy a boat and matching car with ease
Matching car and boat sets fell out of fashion in the 90s, but were once popular gifts among millionaires.
In the fireplace is the yule log
Beneath the mistletoe as we drink egg nog
That sounds like one sloppy, egg nog-drenched kiss.
Jack Frost chillin’, the orchid’s out
And that’s what Christmas is all about
Have you guys really not heard about Jesus?

About me
Music is the joy of joys, but sometimes, words can get in the way. Be it a weak metaphor, a forced rhyme, or just pure nonsense - lyrics can go wrong a hundred ways. It won't stop us from loving a song, but it might give us pause to say, "Wait... what?""And, as I say, 70% is how you look, 20% is how you sound, only 10% is what you say." -Eddie Izzard
