One more, which I just remembered was the subject of much angst during a (too long) dorm discussion in 1987 about bad lyrics.
Love Will Find a Way, from the Yes "Big Generator" album had this:
Here is my heart
Waiting for you
Here is my soul
I eat at chez nous
Blech.

I nominate ABC's "That Was Then but This is Now" which contained this gem: "Can't complain, mustn't grumble, Help yourself to another piece of apple crumble."
