Heard a Anderson Paac song on local radio today.
One lyric had me laughing.

‘Got your hair in the wind and your skin glistenin'
I can smell your sweet perfume
Mmm, you smell better than a barbecue’

Live (the band)
Lightning crashes, a new mother cries Her placenta falls to the floor.

Hope the baby’s ok

Bad lyrics? Not sure if they count but I reckon any song that has the title in the first line is shit. It's like there's no build up and the suspense is gone straight away.

So put 'Panic' by The Smiths and 'I Want To Break free' by Queen in there, and maybe 'We Built This City On Rock and Roll' by Starship, which I'm sure you'd all agree would be a thumper if it wasn't for the first line lyrical flaw.

Uugghh Starship! That’s a bad song full stop. Hard to believe they evolved out of Jefferson Airplane

“I don’t wanna see a ghost,
It’s the sight I fear most
I’d rather have a piece of toast
And watch the evening news”

Life,
Oh Life
Ohhhhhh Life etc

I have to counter that stinker with a personal favourite. QOTSA - I sat by the ocean:
“Time wounds all heals as we fade out of view”
Unfortunately that delicious spoonerism is ruined by starting line being the name of the song Stu…

"There's a dead skunk in the middle of the road,
Dead skunk in the middle of the road,
A dead skunk in the middle of the road,
Stinking to high heaven"

Hush yo mouth Adam, that is a classic. Fish heads just another matter: " I took a fish head out to see a movie, it didn't have to pay to get it in..."

My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard
And they're like, it's better than yours
Damn right, it's better than yours
I can teach you, but I have to charge
My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard
And they're like, it's better than yours
Damn right, it's better than yours
I can teach you, but I have to charge

Nickel back
I like your pants around your feet
And I like the dirt that's on your knees
And I like the way you still say "Please"
While you're looking up at me
You're like my favorite damn disease

Geez VJ we’re on different planets haha
Classic lyrics. So bad they’re good. Possibly?
Cause silicone parts are made for toys
I want 'em real thick and juicy
So find that juicy double
Mix-a-lot's in trouble
Beggin' for a piece of that bubble

So your girlfriend rolls a Honda, playin' workout tapes by Fonda
But Fonda ain't got a motor in the back of her Honda

I heard a comedian rip the lyrics of Steve Miller Bands 'Abracadabra' yesterday.
"Sounds like something Forest Gump would write .
'I wanna reach out and grab you Jenny,,, I know what love is...'"
