Oops-
Forgot to mention “Maxwell Silver Hammer” by Sir Paul himself.
And to think he was a Beatle when that excresence was perpetrated!
:eek:
and Neil Diamond’s “Johnathan Livingston Seagull”.
Am now nauseated and off to work.
I think you’re speaking of Kyrie by Mister Mister (?).
I know the song you’re thinking of, but I can’t access it in my brain. I thought the name was something which began with a ‘K’ (Kyrie? Ky-something…I have no idea.) Unfortunately, I went to a lyrics search site, but there was a banner ad which showed cockroaches crawling across the ad and I began screaming and hid my head in my hands and even had to have my husband come over and close the window for me because I couldn’t look up at the screen again and now my day is pretty much ruined and I’ll probably have bad dreams about that tonight.
And it’s all because of that song, so yes, that does get my vote for worst song ever.
And the writer who made a bloody fortune off it will feel reeeaalll bad knowing you think that.
Yep, and they’re singing “*Kyrie Eleison * down the road that I must travel…”
Means “Lord have mercy” or some such, in some… other… language… than English. hangs head in shame
Greek, maybe?
I’m confused 
How did she give without taking if she came first??
Some really awful songs mentined but I believe I have a real contender. I remember hearing this on the raido and thinking “That must be the dumbest song ever”
Good Morning Starshine by Donovan
I mean with lyrics like these
If we’re talking songs that made the charts it’s gotta be a real contender right?
Thank you! Of course, your post wasn’t up yet while I was having my traumatic experience, but at least we now have your and Anastaseon’s explanation.
oi loike traff-ic loights
oi loike traff-ic loights

oi, oh, ghod…
…and your point is?
Man, I got through 3 whole pages before someone mentioned Yoko Ono.
Yoko’s B- side to Happy Xmas (war is Over) is the melodic, unforgetable
Don’t Worry Kyoko (mummies only looking for her hand in the snow) :eek:
And, as no one has mentioned it…
My nomination is …"It’s a Small World( after-all). If/when you go on the ride at Dizzyland, you will have that damn thing stuck in your brain for the rest of the day.
That reminds me of good old “Turn On Your Heartlight” ( the E.T. takeoff tune by Neil Diamond). Actually, that’s a song that I feel like I should hate, but for some reason I can’t. Guess it was because I was the target demographic at the time.
The “award” for Most Outrageous Lyrical Scenario could very well go to R Kelly for “Trapped in the Closet.”
The first chapter goes like this:

And here is chapter two: http://www.lyricstop.com/t/trappedintheclosetchapter2of5-rkelly.html
It goes on for at least three more chapters.
“Ice Ice Baby”. One of the things I’m most proud of is the fact that I’ve managed to never hear that song played all the way through; the first few bars make me all homicidal and bitchy, and I’m frantic until the station gets changed.
Another one, though I can’t remember the artist (only that they had HUGE hair) - IT’S THE FINAL COUNT-DOOOOOWWWNN!!!
And was it Sonny and Cher who sang, “And the beat goes on…la di da di dah”, all slurry and mushmouthed like they showed up at the studio stoned off their gourds but the day was already paid for so their manager made them record it anyway, or was it somebody else? Whoever it was, the song sucks.
The band Europe sang “The Final Countdown”.
That song rocks. I think I’m going to go download it now.
“How bizarre, how bizarre, how bizarre.”
Sonny and Cher did Not get stoned. But they sang it that way.
But it’s useful when performing an illusion. (Not a trick, that’s something a whore does for money… or candy.)
I’d like to nominate Paul Lekakis’ Boom Boom Boom, just for this skeevy chorus:
Boom Boom Boom
Let’s go back to my room
So we can do it all night
And you can make me feel right
Spoken like a true gentleman. :dubious:
Might as well put that godawful ballad drek “Carrie” on this list. Bic must have sold a lot of lighters that year when Europe went on tour.
