Nonsensical Song Lyrics:

"Buried Myself Alive"

The Nonsensical Lyrics:

I guess it's okay
I puked the day away

Inappropriate Song Lyrics:

"Poetic Tragedy"

The Inappropriate Lyrics:

The cup is not half empty as pessimists say

Why They're Inappropriate:

Some people may think this is "inappropriate"...but I just want to clarify (my opinion) a bit. What he's trying to say is this: The situation (or the 'cup') is actually good at the moment. Or the cup is "half full". But a pessimist would look at that cup and say..... "well.... it's NOT half empty" So he's telling the truth technically, but he manages to make a positive into a negative! :)
