GN'R's best and worst songs (lyrically)?

[Guest bellastar2355]

"Turn around bitch, I got a use for you"

That's a line that I hold deep in my heart

[Bumblefeet]

Best:

Estranged, November Rain, Prostitute also going to nominate TWAT as I love the images it evokes.

Worst:

A lot of the lyrics are rather silly when you read 'em and don't hear them sung hehe. I'd have to think about it.

[MrFinish]

The best (No order): Coma

Don't Cry (Original)

November Rain

Madagascar

Estranged

The worst (No order): Shotgun Blues

I.R.S

Sorry

Prostitute

Double Talkin' Jive

[2x4]

Estranged

Prostitite

Catcher in the Rye

Breakdown

Locomotive

All excellent lyrics and massive songs.

Anything goes

Sweet Child O' Mine

IRS

Madagascar

So Fine

All great songs (IRS is one of my favourite songs ever) but lyrically very basic/generic, which is fine because they're mostly very straight forward songs.

[Axl_morris]

I like brownstone, prostitute and twat, nov rain and civil war.

i think jungle is cheesy but what a great song

"Bring you to your sha na na na knees knees"

get in the ring rants are now dated.

And someone mentioned tge ass sucking quote from shotgun blues.

[rockerman]

Worst all time ever"shoot that cat again so he will stop moaning" worthy has to be THIS I LOVE.

shortly after that Silkworms and then a toss up between CD and Rhiad.

Rolling up there with the WINNERS in the STUPID LYRICS CATAGORY: BETTER , IRS , , My World

Best all time sentiment "get you laid every time when you sing it to the girls: SWEET CHILD OF MINE. Dont Cry and November Rain.

Great Lyrics: BREAK DOWN, COMA, ESTRANGED and November Rain.

[Snake-Pit]

I wanted to sample one section of this, but then I saw another, and then the other; Each verse has a legendary lyric in it. From

We've got fun 'n' gamesWe got everything you wantHoney, we know the namesWe are the people that can findWhatever you may needIf you got the money, honeyWe got your disease

to

We take it day by dayIf you want it you're gonna bleedBut it's the price you payAnd you're a very sexy girlThat's very hard to pleaseYou can taste the bright lightsBut you won't get them for free

&

It gets worse here everydayYa learn ta live like an animalIn the jungle where we playIf you got a hunger for what you seeYou'll take it eventuallyYou can have anything you wantBut you better not take it from me

I thought "My World" was pretty dumb. Best in my opinion is "Madagascar".
