Areosmith:= (Some of the worst lyrics).

When I think of bad lyrics, and also at the same time, "lyrics that are hard to understand" and interpret when listening to their music, in my opinion would have to be "Aerosmith".
Ive always liked Aerosmith and Steven Tyler, especially their earlier albums like Toys In The Attic, Rocks, and one of my personal favorite albums, Get Your Wings. Permanent Vacation is one their later albums Ive always liked, Pump was OK..

(For example) - Train Kept A Rollin

Well, on a train, I met a dame,
She rather handsome, we kind looked the same
She was pretty, from New York City
I'm walkin' down that old fair lane,
I'm in heat, I'm in love,
But I just couldn't tell her so
