Line 10:
** In ''If I Didn't Have You'', Tim conjectures an alternate universe in which he is married to a small blonde Portuguese skier with neck-down [[wikipedia:Alopecia|alopecia]].
* [[Painful Rhyme]]: From ''Five Poofs and Two Pianos'':
{{quote| ''Five poofs, and two pianos''<br />
''Yeah! It's a revolution''<br />
''And probably the best solution''<br />
''To the problem you're inveitably having with an even number of homosexuals...'' }}
** From ''Inflatable You'':
{{quote| ''My mates all reckon you are suitable''<br />
''I took you round to watch the foot-able.'' }}
** In the ''Three Minute Song'':
{{quote| ''But the problem with my particular oeuvre''<br />
''Is that half my songs are five minutes and oeu-ver''. }}
* [[Sophomore Slump]]: ''So Rock'' has some good numbers, but veers much further than ''Dark Side'' into [[Refuge in Vulgarity]]. Fortunately, this is dialled back on ''Ready For This?'' in favour of [[Deadpan Snarker|Deadpan Snarking]], [[Take That|Take Thats]] and [[Anti-Love Song|Anti Love Songs]].
* [[Tear Jerker]]: ''White Wine in the Sun'' for many.
** During some live tapings of ''Not Perfect'', you can actually see audience members crying. In particular, this part tends to bring people with body issues to tears.
{{quote| And the weirdest thing about it is<br />
I spend so much time hating it<br />
But it never says a bad word about me<br />
This is my body, and it's fine<br />
It's where I spend the vast majority of my time<br />
It's not perfect, ''but it's mine.'' }}
** ''Not Perfect'' also has the tendency to upset those people with mental health issues; after singing about how his brain made of love and bad lyrics, but can also hide his fucked up thoughts, he closes:
{{quote| It’s where I spend the vast majority of my time.<br />
It’s not perfect, ''but it’s mine.''<br />
It’s not perfect, I’m not quite sure I’ve worked out how to work it.<br />
It’s not perfect, ''but it’s mine.'' }}
** ''You Grew On Me''. The lyrics are hilarious, but the melody and emotion he brings to it are astounding. During performances, you can hear people laughing along with the first verse, and then listening to it in awed silence when he repeats it at the end of the song.
