Worst Who songs?

Have to disagree. "Dogs" is a great and funny description of the atmosphere of
a dog race. It's one of my favorite Who songs.
But, considering the question, you might be right: "Dogs" can easily be
misunderstood as being silly by less insightful listeners. Therefore it's
not really top ten material and probably should not have been released as a
single...

IYHO. I happen to like `Athena'.
I don't think that there are any bad Who songs at all - only some bad
performances and a couple of bad recordings/mixes.
My personal least favorite Who song is `Did you steal my money'. (Ever
listened to that one with headphones? Well, don't try - the background vocals
are unbearable...) But that doesn't mean that I consider it as really bad...
Hey, Lev, wouldn't this be a nice topic for your next poll? `The Bottom Ten
Who Songs of The Who Digest'.
