Bwah!
Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I would add Springsteen's Born in the USA and any number of Mellencamp songs to the list.

They are both American.

Yep, but I thought from David's suggestions that had been added.

Pointed Sticks - "American Song" [link]
D.O.A. - "America the Beautiful" [link]
David Bowie - I'm Afraid Of Americans [link]
Celibate Rifles - Thank You America [link]
Billy Bragg - "Help Save the Youth of America" [link] (and I'm sure lots of others)

Ann, that's a ferret.
Wanted to add Green Day's "American Idiot," but they're also from the USA.
John Lennon wrote and recorded a lot of anti-war songs when the USA was involved in the Vietnam War, but there isn't a lot of criticism of the USA as such in them. Though maybe the Beatles as a group make the list with "Get Back"?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

These suggestions sound good - I'll check them out when I get home....
