** ''Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger'' (Not all of the lyrics are sung in each verse.)
-->Work it harder, Make it better
-->Do it faster, Makes us stronger
-->More than ever, Hour after hour
-->Work is never over

-->Here, take my shirt and just go ahead and wipe off all the sweat. Sweat. SWEAT.
-->LOSE YOURSELF TO DANCE!
-->LOSE YOURSELF TO DANCE!
-->LOSE YOURSELF TO DANCE!
-->LOSE YOURSELF TO DANCE!
** Also, ''Robot Rock''
* {{The Beatles}} also seem to love this trope.
** "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" clocks in at 7:47, but just repeats the two lines:
--> I want you, I want you so bad, it's driving me mad, it's driving me mad
*** and
--> She's so heavy
** Also from the White Album, "Why Don't We Do It In the Road":
--> Why don't we do it in the road (4x)
--> No one will be watching us
--> Why don't we do it in the road
** "Wild Honey Pie" repeats the line "honey pie" over and over, with the line "I love you" at the end. (Not to be confused with a separate song on another side of the double album called "Honey Pie", which is done in a totally different style, with the "normal" amount of lyrics.)
** And then there's the short ending gag song on ''Abbey Road'' called "Her Majesty":
--> Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl but she doesn't have a lot to say
--> Her majesty's a pretty nice girl but she changes from day to day
--> I wanna tell her that I love her a lot, but I gotta gotta belly full of wine
--> Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl, someday I'm gonna make her mine oh yeah
--> Someday I'm gonna make her mine
* "Tusk" by {{Fleetwood Mac}} is also fairly minimalist lyrics-wise:

--> Why don't you ask him if he's going away
--> Why don't you tell me what's going on
--> Why don't you tell me who's on the phone
--> Why don't you ask him what's going on
--> Why don't you ask him who's the latest on his throne
--> Don't say that you love me
--> Just tell me that you want me
--> Tusk
* "Magnum Opus" from {{Music/Kansas}} is over 8 minutes, with just this one verse surrounded by instrumental work:
--> This foolish game, is still the same
--> The notes go flying off in the air
--> And don't you believe it's true,
--> The music is all for you
--> It's really all we've got to share
--> Cause rocking and rolling,
--> It's only howling at the Moon.
--> It's only howling at the Moon.
* *From the ''Film/EndOfDays'' OST, this little gem from Music/TheProdigy:
-->I got the poison
-->I got the remedy
-->I got the pulsating rhythmical remedy
** Repeat over and over and over and over and over and over again throughout the pulsating rhythmical melody.
* "The Fez" by {{Steely Dan}} repeats these four lines three times, with only minor syntax variations in the first two lines each time:
--> No I'm never gonna do it without the fez on, oh no
--> Ain't never gonna do it without the fez on, oh no
--> That's what I am, please understand
--> I wanna be your holy man
*[[LambChopsPlayAlong This is the song that never ends]]
-->It just goes on and on my friends
-->Some people started singing it, not knowing what it was
-->And they'll continue singing it forever just because
-->''(repeat)''
* "The National Anthem" by Radiohead is a fairly epic and vocally intense song. However, its only lyrics used are:
-->Everyone, everyone around here
-->Everyone is so near/has got the fear
-->It's holding on
-->It's holding on
* "We Do What We're Told (Milgram's 37)" by {{Peter Gabriel}}:
--> We do what we're told (3x)
--> Told to do
--> One doubt
--> One voice
--> One war
--> One truth
--> One dream
* "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf" from ''Disney/ThreeLittlePigs'':

-->Big Bad Wolf
-->Big Bad Wolf
-->Who's afraid of the Big Bad Wolf
-->[flute solo]
* ''Cry (Just A Little)'' by Bingo Players

-->Caught up in the middle

-->When I think of letting go
-->Oh no
-->Gave up on the riddle
-->I cry, just a little
-->When I think of letting go

* This is [[WeeblAndBob Mr.Weebl]]'s schtick for the vast majority of his songs.
** "Badgers" is a pretty famous example:
--> Badger Badger Badger (repeat)
--> Mushroom Mushroom
--> Aaaah a snake! Snake a snake! Ooooh it's a snake!
* The theme "song" for the original {{Batman}} TV series consisted of nothing but the word "Batman", repeated ''ad nauseum'', with a few nonsense words just before the last "Batman".
-->"na-na, na-na, na-na, na-na, Batman"
* The Music/IronButterfly song "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" is upwards of 17 minutes long, yet only has a few lyrics, most of which being the Refrain.
* This is the Song That Gets On Everybody's Nerves
--> This is the song that gets on everybody's nerves
--> EVERYBODY'S NERVES
--> THIS IS THE SONG THAT GETS ON EVERYBODY'S NERVES
--> AND THIS IS HOW IT GOES
-->(Repeat)
* British children's nursery rhymes are generally {{Ironic Nursery Rhyme}}s, including "London's Burning" which is, on repeat:

-->Fetch the engines, Fetch the engines!
-->FIRE, FIRE! FIRE, FIRE!
-->Pour on water, pour on water,
-->London's burning, London's burning...
** With "London's burning" becoming sung more solemn each time until you fade out dramatically.

-->I know a song that'll get on your nerves, get on your nerves, get on your nerves,
-->I know a song that'll get on your nerves, and this is how it goes
**(repeat relentlessly until someone loses it)
* The Solids' ''HowIMetYourMother'' theme is a full song of "ba-ba-ba-ba-baa-duu-da-du-du-duu-da-duu-da-duudaduudaduuda-da-da-da".
* The 90s ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManTheAnimatedSeries'' remixed the classic Spider-Man theme. The end result was a song with a guitar solo and the words "Spider-Man", "Radio Active Spider-Man" and "Radio Active Blood" randomly spliced in at different intervals.
* Thunderhorse from [[{{Metalocalypse}} Dethklok.]] The only words to appear in it, besides [[BreadEggsBreadedEggs thunder, horse, and the two together]], are ride and revenge.
* Technotronic gave us "Pump Up The Jam," comprised solely of "Pump it up / Pump up the jam."
* {{Van McCoy}}'s disco song "The Hustle", the only line being "Do the hustle!"
* {{The Champs}}' song "Tequila", with the only lyric being the title.
* {{The Average White Band}}'s "Pick Up the Pieces", with the only lyrics being the title.
* Kraftwerk is also known for limited lyrics. "I am the operator / Of my pocket calculator."
* No dictionary words at all in the ditty "Mah NÃ Mah NÃ " from the Italian film ''Sweden: Hell And Heaven."
* For certain definitions of the word "Lyrics", we have ''One Of These Days'' by Music/PinkFloyd.
** One of these days I'm going to cut you into little pieces.
* Iron Maiden's "Another Life"
-->As I lay here lying on my bed,
-->sweet voices come into my head.
-->Oh what it is, I wanna know,
-->please won't you tell me it's got to go.
-->There's a feeling that's inside me,
-->telling me to get away.
-->But I'm so tired of living,
-->I might as well end today.
* "Colour My World" by {{Music/Chicago}}:
--> As time goes on, I realize
--> Just what you mean to me
--> And now, now that you're near
--> Promise your love
--> That I've waited to share
--> And dreams of our moments together
--> Colour my world with hope of loving you
* {{Yes}} has a few:
** "We Have Heaven"--two lines repeated over and over in a sort of round:
--> Tell the moon dog, tell the March hare
--> We have heaven
*** ...Joined by these lines about halfway through:
--> He is clear
--> Now look around
** "The Fish" (if taken separate, although it is often [[SiameseTwinSongs twinned with]] "Long Distance Runaround"), repeats the line "Schindleria Praematurus".
** "White Car":
--> I see a man in a white car
--> Move like a ghost on the skyline
--> Take all your dreams
--> And you throw them away
--> Man in a white car.
To qualify for this trope, the song must be more that 2 minutes long. Exceptionally short (under 2 minutes long) songs don't qualify since there isn't enough time for a great many lyrics.
!! Examples:
* Music/DaftPunk seems to like this trope quite a bit.
** ''Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger'' (Not all of the lyrics are sung in each verse.)
-->Work it harder, Make it better
-->Do it faster, Makes us stronger
-->More than ever, Hour after hour
-->Work is never over
** ''Lose Yourself to Dance'' repeats the same verse about 4 times over the course of the 6 minute song. PharrelWilliams is singing the lyrics, but Daft Punk does add some extra lines later into the song.
-->I know you don't get a chance to take a break this often.
-->I know your life is speeding, and it isn't stopping.
-->Here, take my shirt and just go ahead and wipe off all the sweat. Sweat. SWEAT.
-->LOSE YOURSELF TO DANCE!
-->LOSE YOURSELF TO DANCE!
-->LOSE YOURSELF TO DANCE!
-->LOSE YOURSELF TO DANCE!
** Also, ''Robot Rock''
* {{The Beatles}} also seem to love this trope.
** "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" clocks in at 7:47, but just repeats the two lines:
--> I want you, I want you so bad, it's driving me mad, it's driving me mad
*** and
--> She's so heavy
** Also from the White Album, "Why Don't We Do It In the Road":
--> Why don't we do it in the road (4x)
--> No one will be watching us
--> Why don't we do it in the road
** "Wild Honey Pie" repeats the line "honey pie" over and over, with the line "I love you" at the end. (Not to be confused with a separate song on another side of the double album called "Honey Pie", which is done in a totally different style, with the "normal" amount of lyrics.)
** And then there's the short ending gag song on ''Abbey Road'' called "Her Majesty":
--> Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl but she doesn't have a lot to say
--> Her majesty's a pretty nice girl but she changes from day to day
--> I wanna tell her that I love her a lot, but I gotta gotta belly full of wine
--> Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl, someday I'm gonna make her mine oh yeah
--> Someday I'm gonna make her mine
* "Tusk" by {{Fleetwood Mac}} is also fairly minimalist lyrics-wise:
--> Why don't you ask him if he's going to stay
--> Why don't you ask him if he's going away
--> Why don't you tell me what's going on
--> Why don't you tell me who's on the phone
--> Why don't you ask him what's going on
--> Why don't you ask him who's the latest on his throne
--> Don't say that you love me
--> Just tell me that you want me
--> Tusk
* "Magnum Opus" from {{Music/Kansas}} is over 8 minutes, with just this one verse surrounded by instrumental work:
--> This foolish game, is still the same
--> The notes go flying off in the air
--> And don't you believe it's true,
--> The music is all for you
--> It's really all we've got to share
--> Cause rocking and rolling,
--> It's only howling at the Moon.
--> It's only howling at the Moon.
* *From the ''Film/EndOfDays'' OST, this little gem from Music/TheProdigy:
-->I got the poison
-->I got the remedy
-->I got the pulsating rhythmical remedy
** Repeat over and over and over and over and over and over again throughout the pulsating rhythmical melody.
* "The Fez" by {{Steely Dan}} repeats these four lines three times, with only minor syntax variations in the first two lines each time:
--> No I'm never gonna do it without the fez on, oh no
--> Ain't never gonna do it without the fez on, oh no
--> That's what I am, please understand
--> I wanna be your holy man
*[[LambChopsPlayAlong This is the song that never ends]]
-->It just goes on and on my friends
-->Some people started singing it, not knowing what it was
-->And they'll continue singing it forever just because
-->''(repeat)''
* "The National Anthem" by Radiohead is a fairly epic and vocally intense song. However, its only lyrics used are:
-->Everyone, everyone around here
-->Everyone is so near/has got the fear
-->It's holding on
-->It's holding on
* "We Do What We're Told (Milgram's 37)" by {{Peter Gabriel}}:
--> We do what we're told (3x)
--> Told to do
--> One doubt
--> One voice
--> One war
--> One truth
--> One dream
* "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf" from ''Disney/ThreeLittlePigs'':
-->Who's afraid of the Big Bad Wolf
-->Big Bad Wolf
-->Big Bad Wolf
-->Who's afraid of the Big Bad Wolf
-->[flute solo]
* ''Cry (Just A Little)'' by Bingo Players
-->I know
-->Caught up in the middle
-->I cry, just a little
-->When I think of letting go
-->Oh no
-->Gave up on the riddle
-->I cry, just a little
-->When I think of letting go
-->I know
-->I
* This is [[WeeblAndBob Mr.Weebl]]'s schtick for the vast majority of his songs.
** "Badgers" is a pretty famous example:
--> Badger Badger Badger (repeat)
--> Mushroom Mushroom
--> Aaaah a snake! Snake a snake! Ooooh it's a snake!
* The theme "song" for the original {{Batman}} TV series consisted of nothing but the word "Batman", repeated ''ad nauseum'', with a few nonsense words just before the last "Batman".
-->"na-na, na-na, na-na, na-na, Batman"
* The Music/IronButterfly song "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" is upwards of 17 minutes long, yet only has a few lyrics, most of which being the Refrain.
* This is the Song That Gets On Everybody's Nerves
--> This is the song that gets on everybody's nerves
--> EVERYBODY'S NERVES
--> THIS IS THE SONG THAT GETS ON EVERYBODY'S NERVES
--> AND THIS IS HOW IT GOES
-->(Repeat)
* British children's nursery rhymes are generally {{Ironic Nursery Rhyme}}s, including "London's Burning" which is, on repeat:
-->London's Burning, London's Burning,
-->Fetch the engines, Fetch the engines!
-->FIRE, FIRE! FIRE, FIRE!
-->Pour on water, pour on water,
-->London's burning, London's burning...
** With "London's burning" becoming sung more solemn each time until you fade out dramatically.
* The song that'll get on your nerves:
