If Groups Combined, Their Names Might Be:
Jefferson Starship
Jefferson Airplane combined with Starship
Sort of a real example. Jefferson Airplane became Jefferson Starship when some members left to form Hot Tuna and later became just Starship when the last members of Jefferson Airplane left.

"We Built This City"
Better Lyrics:
Destroyed Reich city, destroyed Reich city in '45
Rebuilt that city, rebuilt that city by '55
Surrender came on May 8th, Berlin's forced defeat
Germans called it "Year Zero", but rebuilding was a feat
Rebuilt that city, rebuilt that city by '55
Surrender came on May 8th, Berlin's forced defeat
Germans called it "Year Zero", but rebuilding was a feat
Original Lyrics:
We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll
It's just another Sunday, in a tired old street
Police have got the choke hold, oh, but we just lost the beat
Built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll
It's just another Sunday, in a tired old street
Police have got the choke hold, oh, but we just lost the beat

Funniest Song Lyrics:
"We Built This City"
The Funny Lyrics: Someone's always playing corporation games
Who cares they're always changing corporation names Why They're Funny: This coming from Starship, the band that changed their name many times due to record contracts with different companies.

Nonsensical Song Lyrics:
"We Built This City"
The Nonsensical Lyrics: Marconi plays the mamba; listen to the radio
Why They're Nonsensical: A mamba is a snake. Mambo is a style of music & a dance.
Submitted by: Nickster
| "We Built This City"
The Nonsensical Lyrics: We just want to dance here
But someone stole the stage Why They're Nonsensical: It's impossible to steal a stage, since stages are stuck to the floor. The best way to "steal" a stage would be to dismantle it and rebuild it somewhere else. I don't even think a stage is portable anyways, if you want to transport it in one piece.

Insincere Song Lyrics:
"We Built This City"

Misrhymed Song Lyrics:
"Nothing's Gonna Stop Us"
The Misrhymed Lyrics: Let 'em say we're crazy, I don't care about that
Put your hand in my hand, baby, don't ever look back Why They're Misrhymed: I originally thought Grace Slick was saying, "I don't care about Jack." since that would rhyme with 'back,' but it turns out she's saying 'I don't care about that.' (Note: When this song came out, the band was no longer known as Jefferson Starship.)

Songs That Open With Their Titles:
"We Built This City"
Opening Lines: We bulit this city, we built this city on Rock 'n' Roll.
Comments: By 1985, Jefferson Airplane had become Starship and had undergone many personnel changes with Grace Slick and Mickey Kantor being the only two remaining members from the 1960's Airplane days. "We Built This City" was much more pop oriented then anything ever done by Jefferson Airplane or Jefferson Starhip, and it showed it's pop strength by landing at #1 for two weeks in November 1985. "We Built This City" would not be the last time that Starship would make it to #1, in the spring of 1986 they would go to #1 for one week with the song, "Sara" and in the spring of 1987 they would make it to #1 for three weeks with "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" from the movie "Mannequin".
