I'd make a strong argument for Matt Bellamy from Muse. So many songs off their new album sound like they were written by a 14 year old conspiracist doing a creative writing piece. Shame because the music on the album's p good.
Any other notably bad lyricists you can think of?
Bob Dylan
Kanye and Childish Gambino are up there
Also whoever wrote the lyrics for "Friday"
Paul Banks
Marvin Gaye
John Lydon
Anders Friden
This is some of the most cringeworthy shit ever

He has a really small face
Roger Waters is sometimes a great lyricist, and sometimes the absolute worst.

Bob fucking Dylan

Gambino is way too on the nose sometimes but generally I like it. It might not be the most insightful but he really paints a scene. They're stupid, but memorable and nice.
Jim Morrison, despite the fact that I like a lot of his music.

Paul Banks is the indisputable WOAT in shit lyrics, though they have a certain charm in how bad they are
Kanye West
Kendrick Lamar
Lil Wayne
Drake
Pretty much every dumb nigger main stream rapper... and all pop stars post 2000.
