"A new poll has revealed some of pop music&amp;#039;s weirdest ever song lyrics. Gibberish words, contradictions and downright silliness abound in a Top 10 compiled by Blinkbox Music using 2,000 people. Despite the dodgy lyrics, the majority of these tracks are solid gold classics. But how many of them can you guess from the lyrics alone? Some are more obvious than others... 10. &amp;quot;Slowly walking down the hall, faster than a cannonball.&amp;quot; Click to reveal  Oasis - &amp;#039;Champagne Supernova&amp;#039;      You may have been so distracted by this epic song&amp;#039;s soaring melody that this bizarre contradiction passed by unnoticed. It could possibly mean how time passes slowly, but later it feels like it&amp;#039;s whizzed by. However, Noel Gallagher once explained: &amp;quot;One is about Bracket The Butler who used to be on Camberwick Green, or Chipley or Trumpton or something. He used to take about 20 minutes to go down the hall. And then I couldn&amp;#039;t think of anything that rhymed with &amp;#039;hall&amp;#039; apart from &amp;#039;cannonball&amp;#039;.&amp;quot; Not as poetic, then. 9. &amp;quot;Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter, and my daddy said stay away from Juliet.&amp;quot; Click to reveal   Taylor Swift - &amp;#039;Love Story&amp;#039;      A &amp;#039;scarlet letter&amp;#039; usually refers to a woman who is an adulteress, which shouldn&amp;#039;t really apply to Taylor Swift&amp;#039;s Juliet-style innocent princess schtick. It probably just means that their love is forbidden, but who knows? 8. &amp;quot;Club Tropicana, drinks are free, fun and sunshine, there&amp;#039;s enough for everyone, all that&amp;#039;s missing is the sea.&amp;quot; Click to reveal   Wham! - &amp;#039;Club Tropicana&amp;#039;      A bit obvious, that one. Why is the sea missing? Surely the bar is right by the beach? You may think it is just a beach-themed bar in Clapham or something, but at one point George sings: &amp;quot;Watch the waves break on the bay,&amp;quot; so what&amp;#039;s going on?? 7. &amp;quot;The reflex is an only child, he&amp;#039;s waiting in the park.&amp;quot; Click to reveal   Duran Duran - &amp;#039;The Reflex&amp;#039;      Apparently Duran Duran fans have had big debates about what this song is all about, with one theory being that it is all about a gambling addiction (&amp;quot;I sold the radio and the TV set&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Watching over four-leaf cover&amp;quot;). This line may be about not picking up his kid from school, but this could be a stretch. 6. &amp;quot;Beats so big I&amp;#039;m stepping on leprechauns.&amp;quot; Click to reveal  Black Eyed Peas - &amp;#039;Boom Boom Pow&amp;#039;      You could probably fill a whole Top 10 with just will.i.am songs. You&amp;#039;d probably have to ask him personally about this one. 5. &amp;quot;Before you came into my life, I missed you so bad.&amp;quot; Click to reveal   Carly Rae Jepsen - &amp;#039;Call Me Maybe&amp;#039;      Not really sure what she means here, other than maybe missing having a relationship? Maybe? 4. &amp;quot;Tom bo li de se de moi ya, yeah jambo jambo.&amp;quot; Click to reveal   Lionel Richie - &amp;#039;All Night Long&amp;#039;      Lionel has explained before that he wanted &amp;#039;African&amp;#039; lyrics in the song, but made up his own gibberish version as a &amp;quot;wonderful joke&amp;quot; as he didn&amp;#039;t have time to hire a translator. Still, sounds good! 3. &amp;quot;What about elephants? Have we lost their trust?&amp;quot; Click to reveal   Michael Jackson - &amp;#039;Earth Song&amp;#039;      This bit is the part of the song where Michael holds onto the trees and shouts stuff at the end. I&amp;#039;m pretty sure this line was kept out of the radio edit. 2. &amp;quot;I am the eggman, they are the eggmen, I am the walrus, goo goo g&amp;#039;joob.&amp;quot; Click to reveal   The Beatles - &amp;#039;I Am the Walrus&amp;#039;      This had to be in there somewhere, as it&amp;#039;s possibly the most iconic song when it comes to seemingly gibberish lines. Apparently, John Lennon decided to write the most confusing song possible after he discovered that students were being challenged to analyse Beatles lyrics. The Animals&amp;#039; Eric Burdon has claimed that he is the actual Eggman mentioned. 1. &amp;quot;Are we human, or are we dancer?&amp;quot; Click to reveal   The Killers - &amp;#039;Human&amp;#039;      Debates raged after this song was released, with fans wondering if Brandon Flowers was singing &amp;#039;dancer&amp;#039;, &amp;#039;dancers&amp;#039; or &amp;#039;denser&amp;#039;. However, it is in fact &amp;#039;dancer&amp;#039;, and apparently refers to a critical comment made by Hunter S Thompson, who said that America was raising &amp;quot;a generation of dancers&amp;quot;. Still, shouldn&amp;#039;t it be &amp;#039;dancers&amp;#039;? "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
