Good Song: Invisible by Clay Aiken

Bad Lyrics: Nice clean production on this chart-topper by former Idol runner-up Clay Aiken, but maybe it could’ve used a little more time on the lyrics. This pick-up attempt gets weird very quickly.

What’cha doin’ tonight?

Ok, good start. A little bold, but friendly and inviting.

I wish I could be a fly on your wall

All right. Not a great follow-up. You’re coming on too strong, Clay. Ease off a bit, get to know her first, and-

If I was invisible
Then I could just watch you in your room

Ok. We’re moving into dangerous territory here, so let’s cool off, take a cold shower-

If I was invincible
I’d make you mine tonight

That sounds like a threat, buddy. If this gets any creepier, this girl’s going to up and leave-

Wish I could read what goes through your mind
Wish you could touch me with the colors of your life

…I’m calling the cops.
