| There are statements made in song lyrics that quite simply, are not true. Let's see how many we can list. Name the Artist, Song and Lyric. I'll start:
Supertramp, The Logical Song: There are times when all the world's asleep. | |

| John Cougar Mellencamp - Little pink houses for you and me.
Dude...I don't think I'm ever going to live in a little pink house and I seriously doubt that John does either.

If taken in context this one isn't a lie. The verse is:
You can laugh at my behavior
That'll never bother me
Say the devil is my savior
But I don't pay no heedSo basically the author is saying you can laugh at him and tell him he's going to Hell but he doesn't care. | |

| ^ quite true... but when I was younger, all I heard was that one line, and even though I wasn't a believer yet, I'd always respond to it with "he ain't MY savior !" haha
You're right though, context is essential ! | |
