My girlfriend is a HUGE 21 pilots fan and the two lines that make me physically wince are "My taste in music is your face" and the line about "Not being from the hood but knowing a thing or two about pain and darkness", plenty more can be put but those ones make me the most mad

[@zacharychanoi3218]

I love twenty one pilots now (specifically their album Trench), but the “raised in the hood” lyric is so so bad I didn’t listen to any of their music for half a decade when that song dropped.

[@ss-hc7tb]

i love ‘my taste in music is your face’

[@idk_sis]

The hood lyric just makes me cringe so bad everytime I hear that song 😭 as for the taste in music one, I think it’s kinda funny. It’s silly, not all lines about love have to make sense lol

[@jager9022]

Yeah, a lot of their lyrics pre-Trench are pretty cheese and bad (the "I scream, you scream.." line in Forest makes me shrivel up in cringe) , but they really, reeeeally upped their game with Trench

[@galaxyskeleton]

@@ss-hc7tb same, it's cheesy in an endearing way to me.

[@joshuab9226]

Oh boy, dev, if you haven’t heard Lil Yachty’s explanation for that lyric yet you’re in for a real treat. Here’s what he said: “OK, let's stop for a second. Before you come at me, I'ma let you know. I'ma blame my A&R. Because he listened to that song many times and he allowed me to say that. I guess for a second I thought a cello was a woodwind instrument and it is not. And nobody ever said shit. ... Nobody ever pulled up a pic and said, "Hey man. I don't know if you know what this is, but it ain't that." ... I fucked up. I thought Squidward played the cello. He don't. That's a flute. I fucked up." So he’s getting closer to being right, but still doesn’t know what instrument Squidward plays.

As far as cringe-worthy Train lyrics go, it's a shame you didn't include a line from the chorus to Drive By. He says "just a shy guy, looking for a 2-ply, hefty thing to hold my love," likening the woman he's singing to to both toilet paper and a trash bag, and his own love for her to the trash that he'd like to fill it with. I have no clue honestly.

Bit of an obscure artist, but one of my favourite awful lyrics is one by Quebec rap duo PL et Wheelie. They've only released 2 songs and all the lyrics are bad, but if I had to choose just one it would be "J't'un crypto boss j'me transforme en gangsta dragon, J’ai peut-être un micro pénis, mais j’ai une criss de grosse uni-couille que je place en dessous de mes fesses pis ça me sert de tapis de yoga" which roughly translates to "I'm a crypto boss and I transform into a gangsta dragon, I may have a micro penis but I have a big fucking uni-couille that I put under my ass as a yoga mat". I'm honestly not sure what a "uni-couille" is.
