There's way too many for me, but of course the line about the teeth in "Fine Time" would have to be right up there. :bow:

a view without a room.

obviously Barney got a bit confused as subsequent remix was changed to the more logical "a room without a view".

I'm pretty sure there are other lines where they don't make sense. Ceremony's verse is a bit weird (the 'wheels' line, I believe-Barney was the one who augmented what he thought Ian was singing, right?) in its syntax...the second verse in AOC...I could go on. But I think Barney's a bit enigmatic in his lyrics when he's feeling imaginative or playful, so maybe certain perplexing word choices were more deliberate than we might think otherwise.
