Ah, but the contest was for songs with bad lyrics, not obscene lyrics.
There's a difference between songs which want to make you wretch because
of the tackiness, stupidity, or mushiness of their lyrics, and those
which just sound like Penthouse would be embarrassed to publish their
lyrics.  Personally, I think "Sodomy" (and I'd assume that's the song you're
talking about, although I didn't look at the album, so I could be wrong)
as an amusing and not altogether worthless song.  Their are other great
songs in that category, like Queen's beautiful love song :-) "Get Down,
Make Love."  Sure, the lyrics are sick, but I wouldn't call them bad
or stupid.  At least they break the mushy monotony of most boring popular
songs.
