Everybody knows lyrics to songs are often exaggerated versions of the truth, but there are definitely times when they cross the line. Eminem is the latest singer to get in trouble for making a Ray Rice joke about hitting Lana Del Ray in the face...WTF? Was that necessary? We love their music, if only we could get them to stop hating on the ladies.

After Eminem's most recent lyrics scandal, we decided to take a look at lyrics by artists that we are totally guilty of dancing to when they come up on your Spotify playlist, or singing at full volume on your drive home. Little did we know that a lot of these artists are throwing some serious shade at the females of the world. Take a look at the lyrics we think belong in the hall of dishonour. Spoiler alert: anything that sounds the least bit rapey or jokes about domestic violence are never a good idea.

1. Eminem "SHADY CXVPHER"

"But I may fight for gay rights, especially if they dyke is more of a knockout than Janay Rice / Play nice? / B*tch I'll punch Lana Del Rey right in the face twice, like Ray Rice in broad daylight in the plain sight of the elevator surveillance / Til her head is banging on the railing, then celebrate with the Ravens."

8. Taylor Swift "Better Than Revenge"

"She’s not a saint / And she’s not what you think / She’s an actress, whoa / She’s better known / For the things that she does / On the mattress, whoa / Soon she’s gonna find / Stealing other people’s toys / On the playground won’t / Make you many friends / She should keep in mind / She should keep in mind / There is nothing I do better than revenge.”
