Disappointing, innit? That's such a lovely record, except for the bloody 'Hopin' to see you again/terrible pain in me brain' bit!
However, the worst rhyming couplet is quite obviously the Sex pistols' god-awful 'I am the antichrist/I am an anarchiste.' It perfectly encapsulates just how crap the Sex Pistols were.

So many particulars. So many questions.
Peter Gabrielle was in a shit band, and then wrote these awful lines in hi solo days
If looks could kill, they probably will

Take your pick:
An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
And isn't it ironic... don't you think
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought... it figures
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
"Well isn't this nice..."
And isn't it ironic... don't you think

Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face
A traffic jam when you're already late
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic...don't you think
A little too ironic...and, yeah, I really do think...

True
Sting is king
Of shite
Rhyming
For example:
"I will turn your flesh to alabaster
Then you will find your servant is your master"

the logic ties you up and rapes you."
Or howzabout:
"Mr Khruschchev says 'we will bury you'
but I don't subscribe to his point of view
It would be such an ignorant thing to do
If the Russians luuuuuurve their children too."

Your song (Elton John):
"I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song
It's for people like you that keep it turned on"
That's got to be one of the worst ever. And to think Elton gets Bernie T in to write his lyrics especially. Can you imagine how shite Elton must be at it?
Even Dylan gets it wrong ("Sara")
"Now the beach is deserted except for some kelp
And a piece of an old ship that lies on the shore.
You always responded when I needed your help,
You gimme a map and a key to your door."
KELP-help? Gratuitous or what?

That's the second time that someone's spelled his name in the same way as the soul diva on these boards recently!
I do hope you can tell the difference.
Anyway, your example, from "Games Without Frontiers", isn't his best, perhaps, but Genesis with him were wondrous and he's written many a great lyric.
Someone mentioned Spinal Tap, a few of their finest moments below ....

Hardly getting over it.
The dubious honour for the worst rhyming couplet in music history should really be awarded to Alberto y los Trios Paranoias, for the frankly ridiculous
"don't want to be cremated or buried in a grave,
just shove me in a plastic bag and leave me on the pave...ment"
from the track "Gobbing on Life" on their "Snuff Rock" EP.

"Lemonade was a popular drink and it still is,
I get more props and stunts than Bruce Willis"
Guru on DWYCK, off Hard To Earn. That has to be the laziest attempt to rhyme something in the history of hip hop.
Although he may have simply been making Nice n Smooth feel at home on the track, whose entire back catalogue is of a similar standard.

Well, I've learned something new today; hunting for the lyrics to House of Pain's migraine-rap classic 'Jump Around', I discover that what I always thought was "Word to your moms, I came to drop bombs, I got more rhymes than a bottle's got sauce" is actually "Word to your moms, I came to drop bombs, I got more rhymes than the Bible's got psalms". Now I can't decide which one is more shit.
