Kaiser Chiefs bassist Simon Rix has labelled the pop singer Pink's lyrics as "idiotic".

The 'Angry Mob' rocker has claimed the US star is "crap" and that her music "stinks" during an angry tirade about her lyrics.

Rix told Yahoo Music: "She's just crap. Fact is, Pink stinks. Take a look at that song 'Dear Mr President' - it's just terrible. The lyrics are idiotic."

The Pink tune concerned, 'Dear Mr President', opens with the lines: "Dear Mr President / Come take a walk with me / Let's pretend we're just two people and you're not better than me."

He added: "Pink is like a practical joke being played on the world. Can't say I love the girl."

Wow, and I guess he is a lyrical genius? Doesn't his new song repeat these lines over and over for the second half of the song?

'We are the angry mob
We read the papers everyday day
We like who like
We hate who we hate
But we're also easily swayed'

What amazing lyrical talent!:rolleyes:

All I'm saying is pot and the kettle.

I love the song Dear Mr President

Well, he aimed for publicity with that tirade and he certainly got it.

This is what rock stars do, they bitch about other musicians to get in the papers and be discussed.

Dear Mr. President is an incredibly pretentious song though, so I understand where he's coming from.

The lyrics being idiotic and being too idiotic to understand them are two completely different things with a difference between them that the Kaiser Chiefs clearly don't see.
