» worst | One Dollar Jackpot - 25 Words or Less Competition

Ever gotten a bad present? My late grandmother once gave me an awesome present for Christmas. It was a three pack of wire coat hangers. Believe me! One of my brother’s presents was a set of Allen Keys - he was pretty young then, maybe about 15? Who uses Allen keys when they’re 15?!

It was awesome going to her place for Christmas, we used to sit around with my cousins and laugh at all the horrible presents - we suspect she just had a cupboard of crap that used to get wrapped up at Christmas time, or she just got some things in the OpShop she used to work in during her later years. It really is something I remember with fondness. At least I remember the presents! Better than getting some present you forget about 10 seconds after getting it. Like that time I got that stuff I forget about. Maybe I should have asked my grandmother if she was doing it deliberately or not.

What’s your worst or best present ever?

I don’t know if you have ever been ‘the fat kid’ or not - but I’ve never been and I STILL love cake. Those are some totally awesome lyrics by fiddy cent - the most wonderful-guy-who-writes-song-words-ever.

What are the worst lyrics ever? I’m not sure if I’m making this too easy because almost the entire catalogue of REM songs falls into contention for this one.

Maybe this could give you a sure fire heads up :

I don’t like cities
But I like New York
Other places
Make me feel like a dork

War is stupid
And people are stupid

Coast to coast
L.A. to Chicago

Enter the competition today - they may be your lyrics, they may be someone else’s lyrics - but all I want to know is, what are they?
