Kate Nash writes some of the worst lyrics I have EVER heard. I really enjoy her in general, her voice is great and her songs Foundations, Pumpkin Soup, and Merry Happy are really enjoyable, but some of her other songs are absolute garbage. I thought she had some doozies on her first album "Made of Bricks" but then I listened to her latest album "My Best Friend is You" and was so shocked at the first line of Don't You Want to Share the Guilt that I burst out laughing. Here are a small selection of her gems:
"BBQ food is good
You invite me out to eat it, I should
Go, but I'm feeling kind of nervous
And not quite myself"
from Don't You Want to Share the Guilt?
"I hate seagulls
And I hate being sick
I hate burning my finger on the toaster
And I hate knits"
from I Hate Seagulls
"And I use mouthwash
Sometimes I floss
I got a family
And I drink lots of tea"
from Mouthwash
"right birds can fly so high
or they can shit on your head
they can almost fly into your eye and make you feel so scared, but when you look at them and you see that there beautiful that's how i feel about you."
from Birds
