10 Worst Hard Rock Lyrics Of All Time
3. Pink - Aerosmith
Just like KISS had championed in the '70s, Aerosmith were the kings of putting a fair bit of sexual innuendo into their lyrics. Across their glory years like Toys in the Attic and Rocks, over half of the lyric sheet of Steven Tyler has always about getting a bit down and dirty with your partner. Even though the rock world is used to a bit of smut in their lyrics, Pink really tests the theory of how far is too far.
Granted, it's not like you have to be a prude to actually enjoy some of these songs. When it comes to the song Pink, you can't really get around the subject matter that Steven is singing about. I mean, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that Tyler's infatuation with Pink is certainly not coming from the actual shade on the color spectrum. You could at least hide it a little better though.
Throughout the '70s, songs like Walk This Way had some clever wordplay and amazing instrumentation to make up for some of the more juvenile parts of the lyrics. Once you put it next to your standard pop rock song though, it just feels like an old man yelling about how much he needs some sexual reciprocation. While you can really grade any rock song about sex on a curve, this is the instance where every conceivable idea goes wrong.
