Shit lyrics

I listened to Peter Gabriel's 'Games Without Frontiers' earlier today. You know I've never actually listened to the lyrics, I always thought he sang 'She's so obvious', but I believe it's 'Jeux sans frontiers'. Well there you go. Anyway, I couldn't believe I had never noticed how shit the lyrics were. Cop a load of this:

Hans plays with Lotte, Lotte plays with Jane
Jane plays with Willi, Willi is happy again
Suki plays with Leo, Sacha plays with Britt
Adolf builts a bonfire, Enrico plays with it


Where on earth did he get those names from, am I missing something? Now they have got to be the worst lyrics since, oooo, Peter Sarstedt's 'Where Do You Go To My Lovely':

Your name, it is heard in high places
You know the Aga Khan
He sent you a racehorse for Christmas
And you keep it just for fun, for a laugh, a-ha-ha-ha


... especially the a-ha-ha-ha bit. What was he thinking, the silly man.

I think this is going to be a regular feature on this blog as now I'm going to examine everyone's lyrics and name & shame.
