Insincere Song Lyrics:

"Fool (If You think It'sOver)"

The Insincere Lyrics:

save your cryin' for the day that may not come
but anyone who had to pay would laugh at you and say...

Why They're Insincere:

The much older, worldly man in the song sounds like he is being sympathetic to the young 17-year-old heart broken girl while just trying to take advantage of her vulnerability and get into her pants.

Misrhymed Song Lyrics:

"Driving Home For Christmas"

The Misrhymed Lyrics:

I'm driving home for Christmas,
Oh, I can't wait to see those faces.
I'm driving home for Christmas, yeah,
Well, I'm moving down that line.
And it's been so long,
But I will be there.
I sing this song
To pass the time away.
Driving in my car,
Driving home for Christmas.
It's gonna take some time,
But I'll get there...
(later) So I sing for you,
Though you can't hear me.
When I get through,
And feel you near me...
(later) Driving home for Christmas,
With a thousand memories.
I take look at the driver next to me,
He's just the same...

Why They're Misrhymed:

Most of the song doesn't rhyme. He also rhymes "me" with itself.
