That's old Sparks -- This Town Ain't Big Enough for Both of Us. (Next comes the chorus, I believe: "This town ain't big enough for both of us -- and it ain't me who's gonna leave!")
Great stuff, Bunion, and tres silly! Ron Mael wrote some clever, twisted lyrics!
(Thanks guys, for resurrecting this neglected old attempt at whimsy....)
Try this on: He didn't do the Mona Lisa -- that was an Italian geezer....

"...and I'm standing here in Willesden Green, brrrr it is a bit chilly..." from 'Shirt' by the immortal Bonzos.
"...the story of your life in all its minute and tedious attention to detail and was is a Tuesday or a Wednesday? Who cares, I do not, so Norman if you're normal then I intend to be a freak for the rest of my life and baffle you with cabbages and rhinoceroses in the kitchen and insects and quotations from Now We Are Six through the mouthpiece of Lord Snooty's giant poisoned electric head - so therrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrre."

On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me, A beer. (in my tree) On the second day of Christmas, my true love gave to me, Two turtle-necks And a beer in a tree.

"...On the third day of Christmas my true love gave to me, three french toast, two turtle necks..."
Bob & Doug, The Mackenzie Brothers (Rick Moranis & Dave Thomas of SCTV fame) eh...
Here's an easy one... the song sounds silly too, but i always liked it...
"You got the money back, that's okay
Who needs a Cadillac anyway
I got the medicine, make you see the light
Call me in Alaska if it all turns out right (Alright)"

That's from Gabriel's 1st album, isn't it? (USED to have it on vinyl. Wasn't that Excuse Me?
How about:
"There's evidence of settlements, and one-lane village streets.
Houses shops and little towns -- the framework was complete
By the ti-ime (of the Norman Conquest!)...."

^ That was vintage vinyl Monty Python -- you lose again!
OK, try this, if you're brave enough:
= "The ones that go in, are lean and thin -- the ones that come out are fat and stout
Your eyes fall in, and your teeth fall out -- your brains go tumbling down your snout...."
