Jokes:

Band Name Origins:
- They got the name Creed when Jesus came to Scott in a dream and said "Spread my word. Spread my Creed." Then Jesus gave him the lyrics to "Higher" Submitted by: Robert Jones
- Scott Stapp originally wanted to name the band Naked Toddler, after a newpaper clipping that he kept in his walet. Brian Marshall was in a band called Marshall's Creed, and as they were tossing out names they decided to go with Creed, as it is a strong belief in something, and they believed in what they were doing, the music they were making, and it all being about the super jackpot.

Better Lyrics:
I thought I told you before
No need to tell me your low golf score
'Cause we all play under the rules of one course
So don't you brag anymore
Now don't you gloat about your low golf scores
'Cause we all play under the rules of one course.
No need to tell me your low golf score
'Cause we all play under the rules of one course
So don't you brag anymore
Now don't you gloat about your low golf scores
'Cause we all play under the rules of one course.
Original Lyrics:
But they ain't here anymore
Don't have to settle no god damn score
Cause we all live under the reign of one king
But they ain't here anymore
Don't have to settle no god damn score
'Cause we all live under the reign of one king.
Don't have to settle no god damn score
Cause we all live under the reign of one king
But they ain't here anymore
Don't have to settle no god damn score
'Cause we all live under the reign of one king.

Nonsensical Song Lyrics:

Why They're Nonsensical: Blind people, by definition, are incapable of seeing, but he probably means this in a figurative way.
Submitted by: Michael S.
| "What If"
The Nonsensical Lyrics: What if eye for an eye?
Why They're Nonsensical: Now, I'm no English professor, but what the hell kind of a question is that? There's no verb, so it's not a complete sentence at all. I'm sure others would be baffled by this line as well.

Insincere Song Lyrics:
"My Sacrifice"
The Insincere Lyrics: My Sacrifice
Why They're Insincere: Okay, I've looked at the lyrics to this song a thousand times. I still don't see whats being sacrificed. I mean, really... its not even a metaphor. Which means they probably think they've given up so much to be rich and famous off of run-of-the-mill christian rock. That and all the equating of their singer to Jesus in their videos... how pretentious can one get? Pathetic....
