Guns N' Roses', "Welcome To The Jungle"
The Lyrics:
Welcome to the jungle! It gets worse here every day!
Why:
For a song about living like an animal in an urban hellhole, it's an awfully cheerful piece. (It's evidently sung from the point of view of one of the more successful predators welcoming some fresh meat.)
