Read the 10 Most Awesome/Awful Lyrics on Katy Perry's 'Teenage Dream'

By The Editors of Vulture Posted Aug 24th 2010 01:46PM

Our friends at Vulture have a word or two to offer about the term "awfulsome."

It's where awful and awesome meet, rub up against each other, and birth something new -- something simultaneously good and bad. Katy Perry's ecstatically, enjoyably, endearingly hollow album 'Teenage Dream,' out today, is full of lyrics that embody this term -- awful lyrics that after repeated hearings (and, there will be repeated hearings!) begin to earn some admiration for being so brazenly, so straightforwardly, so bravely ridiculous.

Consider: Thanks to Perry's unavoidably catchy 'Peacock,' in a few months Americans will be going about their business with the phrase, "I want to see your peacock cock cock cock" stuck in their heads. Is that awful? Really, really awful? Or just goofy and twisted enough to be awesome?

>>Visit 'Vulture' for the top 10 'Teenage Dream' lyrics that aspire to awfulsome-ness.

By sunny

Why exactly is this news and why do we need to know this?
I get so tired of AOL's "news" stories about This or That actor's wife's brother's second cousin on his mother's side crashing his motorcycle or having terminal cancer.
WHO CARES????

And I'm supposed to lose sleep over Katy Perry's lyrics because...?

KATY PERRY:
Im actually suprised she had anything after I kissed a girl.
Shes winding down fast, Marry Russell, have a family and disapear, in 20 years you will have had 3 songs and no one will know your name. Not Bad, but no musician for sure!! POP POP POP goes the weasel.

Katy Perry sucks. She can't sing, can't write music and has a face like the surface of the moon. Good thing she has that giant rack to distract everybody from her pizza face.

You're right, Nico. Katy Perry has no talent, other than dispaying her great rack and sexy body. She cant sing and her music is terrible. I thought she was at least in on the joke that her career is, but now she claims to be a "serious artist".I must have missed the serious artist part of her music because I was distracted by the whipped cream shooting out of her boobs and her naked body writhing on the floor.

You ladies obviously have something against Katy. She's cute and she has a great voice that isn't overly edited.. I guess you girls prefer ridiculous and fake sounding music? Or perhaps you're jealous of her appearance? Either way, putting her down won't make you a better and or more intelligent person nor will it make you better looking. If you don't like her why are you even reading an article about her? Your time would be better spent on something you enjoy ;)

By Stacey

I upset that eminem and snoop did songs w/ her she is trash
