Real Lyrics -> Bad Grammar in Song Lyrics -> Latest Entries

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.

Sabaton's, "Soldier of Heaven"
The Lyrics:
All of these years I have been frozen in time,
I cried for spring to come but here, winter remain.
Why:
He says "remain" instead of "remains."

Sabaton's, "Sparta"
The Lyrics:
(T)he hot gates calls their name.
Why:
It's supposed to be *call* their name instead of "calls".
Submitted by: Katy
Sabaton's, "Attero Dominatus"
The Lyrics:
A million grenades has been launched...
(later) Millions of lives has been lost.
Why:
It should be *have been* launched/lost.

Genesis', "Me and Sarah Jane"
The Lyrics:
Me and Sarah Jane, we had a special thing going
Why:
Obviously it should be "Sarah Jane and I," but does it count since he inserted the pronoun "we" as the subject?

Sabaton's, "Father"
The Lyrics:
And on the battlefield they're dying,
And on the fields, the crops are grown.
Why:
I think only the second sentence should've started with "and".

Sabaton's, "Inmate 4859"
The Lyrics:
Join the uprising, fight on the streets while hiding his rank.
Why:
It says, "join" instead of "joins" and "fight" instead of "fights", but strangely the next line correctly says "takes".

Sabaton's, "Inmate 4859"
The Lyrics:
The dawn of century.
Why:
The "a" is missing: The dawn of *a* century.
Submitted by: Katy
Andy Williams', "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year"
The Lyrics:
It's the hap-happiest season of all.
Why:
I think singing "happiest" for longer sounds better, rather than squeezing in the "hap" bit of "happiest".
Submitted by: Katy
Jason Derulo's, "Want to Want Me"
The Lyrics:
There's nothing I, no, I wouldn't do
Why:
The pronoun "I" is repeated and the word "no" is inserted between "There's nothing I" and "I wouldn't do". No is not a verb.
Submitted by: JohnHowarth
Sabaton's, "Resist and Bite"
The Lyrics:
Honored were our orders in despite of our foe.
Why:
It should be "In SPITE of", but that doesn't match the rhythm.
Submitted by: Katy
