The Beatles', "And I Love Her"
The Inappropriate Lyrics:
A love like ours could never die
as long as I have you near me
as long as I have you near me
Why They're Inappropriate:
Throughout the rest of the song, the lyrics refer to the narrator's love interest in the third person ('And I love her,' 'She gives me everything). Suddenly, she's being referred to in the second person. Why not simply change the "you" to "her," just to keep things consistent? Beats me...

The Beatles', "Hey Jude"
The Inappropriate Lyrics:
The movement you need is on your shoulder.
Why They're Inappropriate:
I hope the word "movement" doesn't mean what I think it does in this case...

The Beatles', "If I Fell"
The Inappropriate Lyrics:
I must be sure
From the very start
That you would love me more than her
From the very start
That you would love me more than her
Why They're Inappropriate:
This makes it sound like the person who is being sung to is bisexual.

The Beatles', "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da"
The Inappropriate Lyrics:
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, bra
Why They're Inappropriate:
"Bra" is the abbreviation for a "brassiere" - the undergarment women wear under their shirt to hold their breasts up!

The Beatles', "Strawberry Fields Forever"
The Inappropriate Lyrics:
Cranberry sauce (muttered by John Lennon at the end of the extended outro)
Why They're Inappropriate:
At the end of the extended version of this song (right around the 3:53 mark), you can faintly hear John muttering these two words. I think it's inappropriate of him to mention cranberries instead of strawberries (as per the title of the song).

The Beatles', "Strawberry Fields Forever"
The Inappropriate Lyrics:
Strawberry Fields, nothing is real
Why They're Inappropriate:
Hmm? What does that mean exactly, and why was it mentioned?? Not a day goes by when I don't ask why they thought that 'nothing is real'?

The Beatles', "What You're Doing"
The Inappropriate Lyrics:
And should you need a love that's true, it's me.
Why They're Inappropriate:
This song seems mainly about unrequited love. The above 'invitational' line in the bridge doesn't seem to fit.

The Beatles', "With A Little Help From My Friends"
The Inappropriate Lyrics:
I get high with a little help from my friends
Why They're Inappropriate:
It's talking about drug abuse from peer pressure - "getting high"; as in using illegal substances because friends encourage it.
