This was the first thing that came to mind. That scene was amazing in the show, too.

Is "Lola" a joke song? I don't think so, but it feels like tongue THROUGH cheek irony at times.

I perform this song almost daily:

Loved this one over an obscene amount of time. Like, I can imagine the music over one of those chill 90's Janet Jackson videos where everyone is cold lampin and vibing on each other, but instead it's about McDonald's.

No, but "Yoda" is..as well as being sadly prophetic.

Well, I heard my friends really got in a mess
So I'm gonna have to leave Yoda I guess
But I know that I'll be coming back some day
I'll be playing this part 'till I'm old and gray
The long-term contract I had to sign
Says I'll be making these movies till the end of time
With my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

I came here to say this!

Oh! That reminds me of this one. The song that plays during the "punk on the bus" scene in Star Trek IV was specifically written for that scene by one of the producers (who actually plays the punk on the bus). I thought for a long time that it was by an actual punk band.
