This discussion just brings back memories of a singer we worked with right after high school. He was a great singer but insisted on writing his own lyrics which were absolutely dreadful. We eventually stopped playing with him mainly because we wanted to make cool music but, also because it was impossible to keep a straight face when reading/listening to his words. It's hard not to feel like an A**hole when someone hands you a sheet with lyrics they say are really meaningful to them and you can't help but laugh because it's full of lines like "You are just a flat tire on my road of life". Ten years later and we still reference that line whenever someone comes up with bad lyrics.
