"The More You Ignore Me, The Closer I Get"
The Funny Lyrics: In the bar, with my head on the bar.
Why They're Funny: It's funny because he uses the phrase "the bar" two different ways. *In* the bar refers to a retail establishment serving alcoholic beverages; *on* the bar refers to the counter in such an establishment where such drinks are served.

But where the president, is never black, female or gay, and until that day, you've got nothing to say to me, to help me believe Why They're Dated: Oops... we've got a black president now. Almost had a woman president even. I wonder if he'll change the lyrics to the song when he performs it now.
