Good Song: I Am, I Said by Neil Diamond

Bad Lyrics: Sounds like Neil was going through a real rough patch when he wrote this one.

And I’m not a man who likes to swear
But I’ve never cared for the sound of being alone

Which word in this verse did Neil consider a swear? Never? For? Being? Don’t be such a prude, man. But maybe he’s just depressed - listen to this chorus:

I am, I said
To no one there
And no one heard at all
Not even the chair

Awww… We heard you, big guy.
