Today i listened to a radio feature where they said that the BBC audience once had choosen the song Life of Des'ree to the worst song text ever.
see_the_song and listen
Here a short extract:
Ooh, I get the shivers
I don't want to see a ghost,
It's a sight that I fear most
I'd rather have a piece of toast
And watch the evening news
What's your personal choice? Let us have a part to your repugnances.

Anything by the Osmonds, David Cassidy/Partridge Family, ABBA, Bobby Sherman, Helen Reddy, Leif Garrett, the Bay City Rollers, etc comes to mind but thank God I do not remember any of the lyrics!

Oh my God, I saw the name of this topic and was just about to barge in and tell you whatever song ame you had thought of was wrong because Des'ree's Life is worse. But you beat me to, hands down..!
 
I'm afraid of the dark,

Two come to mind, Horse with no name- "in the desert you can remember your name because there ain't no one for to give you no pain".
 
And my all time pick for worlds worst everthing-  Yoko Ono's "Why".
"Arguing with someone who hates you or your ideas, is like playing chess with a pigeon. No matter what move you make, your opponent will walk all over the board and scramble the pieces".
Unknown.

Red, I can think of two as well:
 
"Love grows where my Rosemary goes
  and nobody knows like me..."                 BARF  Dead
 
And....any university's Alma Mater.  They are all stupid and all the same, so they all qualify as one.
 
Mine was affectionately known by the refrain "I don't know the goddamn words."  LOL

All the world's national anthems is a tale of woe.

How about this? A little known track called Forever Autumn. Both the lyrics and the song need to be appreciated.




The summer sun is fading as the year grows old,
and darker days are drawing near,
the winter winds will be much colder,
now you're not here.
I watch the birds fly south across the autumn sky
and one by one they disappear
I wish that I was flying with them,
now you're not here

like the sun through the trees you came to love me
like a leaf on a breeze you blew away

through autumns golden gown we used to kick our way
you always loved this time of year
those fallen leaves lie undisturbed now
cos you're not here x 3

like the sun through the trees you came to love me
like a leaf on a breeze you blew away

a gentle rain falls softly on my weary eyes
as if to hide a lonely tear
my life will be forever autumn
cos you're not here x 6

After some thought I actually pinned down a song that would be totally inappropriate for today's pc listeners. In fact this song would only crack the top forty if you go back, way back...
 
 
 
TROGLODYTE (CAVE MAN)
Jimmy Castor Bunch


What we're gonna do right here is go back, way back, back into time.
When the only people that existed were troglodytes...cave men...
cave women...Neanderthal...troglodytes. Let's take the average
cave man at home, listening to his stereo. Sometimes he'd get up,
try to do his thing. He'd begin to move, something like this:
"Dance...dance". When he got tired of dancing alone, he'd look
in the mirror: "Gotta find a woman gotta find a woman gotta find a
woman gotta find a woman". He'd go down to the lake where all the
woman would be swimming or washing clothes or something. He'd look
around and just reach in and grab one. "Come here...come here".
He'd grab her by the hair. You can't do that today, fellas, cause
it might come off. You'd have a piece of hair in your hand and she'd
be swimming away from you
