* There's a song called [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVeGgV8MtJA Disneyland] from an obscure 80's musical called ''Smile'' that's just chock full of these. First off, the lyrics were written by Howard Ashman from before he teamed up with Alan Menken to become one of Disney's greatest songwriting duos. Not only that, but the woman singing is Jodi Benson, most famous as the voice of Ariel in [[The Little Mermaid]]. There's even a reference to a [[Aladdin (Disney film)|magic carpet]]!
* Likely a mixed between this and [[Harsher in Hindsight]], demanding how one looksglances at it, "If That Were Me" by [[Spice Girls|Melanie C]] talks aboutdiscusses homelessness. In one part, she sings "I couldn't live without my phone. But you don't even have a home." In 2000, when the song was released, having your own phone was [[Serious Business]]. Today, it's prettyrather common for, even the homeless, to have at least one phone, even a pre-paid one. There's even a name for a fear of being without a mobile home called homophobianomophobia. Even Chisholm herself acknowledged this.
