This took way too long to complete lol. Here is an extensive list of how many times Shaun used certain words in his songs over the years. I dare anyone to tell me he is not a lyrical genius. I may have missed some words here and there but this list is quite thorough overall. I also listed interesting facts about the words where applicable.For context this list is based on 120 Seether songs.Songs where the title is not sung: 69 Tea, Driven Under, Pig, Dazed and Abused, Senseless Tragedy, Burrito, Fur Cue, Country Song, Master of Disaster, Yeah, Roses, Crash, LeechSongs where the title is in the first line of the song: Truth, Tongue, Walk Away From the Sun, Fade OutHere and Now is the closest song we ever got to a title track because “Holding Onto Strings Better Left to Fray” is actually a lyric from the song.Take this one with a grain of salt because I’m not 100% sure but I believe the word “you” and its various forms have been used approximately 1600 times.Line Repetition: “The worst is over now” from Broken used in Burrito. “Labeled as a liar” from Fine Again used in Liar. “Can you take it?” from Nobody literally reused in the next song, Effigy.Expletives:Fuck/Fucking/Motherfucker: 94 (17 songs) (Fuck It has the most F-Bombs followed closely by Dead and Done. Beg is the only song that uses the variant “motherfucker”) (Fuck is their 10th most utilized word in their discography)R*pe: 12 (5 songs)Shit: 6 (3 songs)Wh*re: 6 (3 songs)C*m: 1Ass: 1Damn/Damned/Goddamn: 13 (3 songs)Hell: 6 (2 songs)Most used descriptive words:Down: 263Feel/Feeling 236 (Only 79 before Holding Onto Strings.
