Some brilliant candidates here.
However, in some cases the (non)existence of the chorus is hard to define: e.g. All along the watchtower, Hey Joe, or Happiness is a warm gun.

Same concerns MacArthur Park, masterpiece by Jimmy Webb, especially performed by Richard Harris.

I don't know about "best", but I've always liked "Gentle on My Mind" performed by Glen Campbell.

Color My World by Chicago might be one of the few top hits that had no chorus - they only say the title once. I've always admired that. And it is a pretty song with the simple piano.

Beatles - A Day in the Life
And an interesting comparison:
Dylan - Subterranean Homesick Blues

Best album of songs with no chorus:
Philip Glass: Songs from Liquid Days

Best song that's all chorus:
Pentatonix: Hallelujah

you know, your ignorance of music often offends people, well here i imagine most of us envy you.
its sting at his most "wait a minute, wasn't that guy in the police? they had some cool hits, what the f**k happened?" phase.

Typing the “wtf is that” post definitely cost more time than select–rightclick–search anyway.
