Default Uncomfortable songs

Lets list the songs that make you feel weird, so much so that you've almost always skipped them. Maybe the lyrics are wtf, the accent too cringey, or the video was corny AF or its just musically weak/lazy.

My picks-
The Price of Love
If I was your Mother
I Got the Girl
I want to be loved
Work for the Working Man.
What about now

If I Was Your Mother has cringey lyrics but it such a good song musally and in terms of performance/production that I don't care at all. Maybe cause I heard it very early also.

The Price of Love is cool too for me. Only Lonely is much more .... softy, as attitude and vocal performance.

I used to have a problem with Dirty Little Secret, because I did not like the concept. I prefer how the same situation is examined in Damned.

There is something that bothers me in the performance of WWWB.
Many newer songs are cringey.

I always thought that the lyrics to that were suppoosed to be creepy? Like an over obsessed stalker type person....not a genuine love song type of thing....it makes more sense to me that way and changes the lyrics from cringly to a bit dark....I love it!

For me, the cringiest songs are Social Disease, Woman in Love, Let's Make it Baby, Last Cigarette, and Knockout.

Whoever thought that intro to Social Disease was a good idea can rot in hell.
