Subject: RE: BS: Candidates for WORST ad slogan/jingle
I got three to share.

1. From a billboard advertising a Chiropractor:

"When T Rex his back,
He goes to [John Doe] Chiropractor"

2. From a local plumbing company:

"Don't go to bed with that drip tonight."

3. From a 50s TV commercial for a savings & loan association. It was an animated cartoon of a number One wearing a straw hat and singing this jingle to "Sailing, sailing over the bounding main":

"Saving, saving, the [...]Federal way.
The dollars mount in your account,
With the dividends we pay.
Saving, saving. Insured?
You bet! OK!
To gain the goal your aiming for*
Start an account today."

*shooting an arrow into the bullseye.
