The winner was "I am the Walrus" by the Beatles. You could argue about that, but the runner-up award was well-deserved: "Having My Baby" by Paul Anka. Does anyone remember "You can never go home anymore" by, I think, the Shangri-Las? Those lyrics were about as bad as any I can think of. =Bob the blob
