Real Lyrics -> Bad Grammar in Song Lyrics -> The Moody Blues
Song lyrics aren't supposed to be a fountain of perfect english, but on the other hand some are just so atrocious, they need to get called out. We're not looking for sentance fragments or the word ain't since there are too many instances to count.

The Moody Blues', "Gemini Dream"
The Lyrics:
You know you gonna wake up,
You know you gonna wake up
In a Gemini Dream
You know you gonna wake up
In a Gemini Dream
Why:
Umm.... Justin, that should be: "You know YOU'RE gonna wake up in a Gemini Dream."

The Moody Blues', "Is This Heaven?"
The Lyrics:
I want to be there when
The age of love is come again...
The age of love is come again...
Why:
It sounds like it was written by a pre-schooler! The correct form is "the age of love HAS come again"!
