Re: Best swearing in a song

Trail Of Dead's 'Worlds Apart''s got some great bits of swearing in it too.. 'look at those cunts on MTV', and 'giving money to Jesus Fucking H Christ'.

Also, The Crocketts 'I Don't Fucking Think So' is a nice bit of sweariness

"Opinionated Blue-collar Outlook" by Handbags At Dawn

Sometimes, I ask myself: 'What's it all about?'
How d'ya like me Classics, son, square inside your fuckin' mouth?
Screamin' opinions in my face - it's not big, and it's not clever
"A sinner or a winner" eh? Darlin', yeah, whatever
Folk won't never trust a man in wanker pink shell suits
Ya might find yourself at the bottom of the Thames, with a pair a concrete boots
Come across all diamond geez, with "I'd do that cunt Rita."
Looks like Tarzan, talks like Jane, screams like fuckin' Cheetah
Big style down in Spittal' market, sellin' fuckin' duds
If that ain't Ralph Lau-fuckin'-ren
I'll drop ya like a sack a' spuds
But I've time for Biggie, with what he's got
He does the best he can
That man could sell razor blades in Af-fuckin'-ghanistan
Yes, I've got mc squared
No I won't take no cheque
Fuck with me, I'll rip your head off
And shit inside your fuckin' neck
Now, my life might fit in a pint glass
But do I look like a fuckin' mug?
Big, I don't give a monkey's toss!
what the fuck do I want with a Persian rug!?
Can I be your manager, yo?
I'll get ya on the goddamn radio!
Drop ya pants and I'll make you rich
I've been so lonely; won't ya let me be your bitch?
I was in a fight last Friday night
Smashed me glass in his fuckin' face
They were pickin' his fuckin' nose up, all over the fuckin' place
Scary, lairy, quite contrary
Havin' a fight with an ATM
Drunk and lost inside a phone box
Sometimes life's a fuckin' gem

Towards the end of ATR's Atari Teenage Riot II, where there's a single, solitary and brilliantly unnecessary and venemous "fuck you" before it descends into just beats and noise for a couple of minutes

Re: Best swearing in a song

Oh yes, and anything by Arab Strap!

Re: Best swearing in a song

manics - who's responsible? YOU FUCKIN ARE.

Kills - Hey...Fuck the people

Plus bands that don't swear too much or insinuated swearing is effective.

Obvious one MSP again - Stay Beautiful - Why don't you just..

And Dresden Dolls in Bad Habit - Makes me want to give mankind a (fucking?) beating

Re: Best swearing in a song

None of that is good swearing, though. It's lame cock-rock swearing.

Re: Best swearing in a song

Mine was a good-swearing example. Spits it out with real bile

Re: Best swearing in a song

I was talking about G'n'R, JudeOne.

Re: Best swearing in a song

Yeah, thought so - just wanted to check (defensive, moi?)

Re: Best swearing in a song

Oh come on - it's funny the way it's so childish and blatant.

British Sea Power, opening to "fear of Drowning"

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST! OH GOD! NO!

Re: Best swearing in a song

i enjoyed the cover of straight outta compton which was on the downloads page a wee while back, in an acoustic style.

can't find it now, but i think it was by nina gordon.

Re: Best swearing in a song

Yeah Fear of Drowning. I just mentioned that...in the Best Opening Lyric Line thread, methinks?

"And I really don't give a fuck" SM on Range Life.

Fuck the mothers, Kill the others.
Fuck the others, kill the mothers. Siouxsie on ??? Halloween or something on juju.

There are clever uses and blatant exploitive times when the swearing comes off very cliche...usually from an 80s hair metal bands. G 'n R went both ways. Appetite was mostly good, (and though I like the Illusions) Get In The Ring is an awful song the swearing only makes worse.
