Line 2:
* [[Acceptable Targets]]: The ''#1 with a Bullet'' album takes two very un-subtle jabs at Japanese. He uses a mocking [[Japanese Ranguage]] accent in "A Little Blue-Haired Lady" for no particular reason, and mercilessly pokes fun at their technological advances in "Workin' for the Japanese" (which also uses the accent at the end).
* [[Anvilicious]]: "We the People" hammers the listener over the head with Stevens' conservative Christian views, to the point that even if one agrees with the overall message, it's still pretty irritating.
** This is nothing new. Witness "[https://web.archive.org/web/20160317132838/http://www.musicsonglyrics.com/america-communicate-with-me-lyrics-ray-stevens.html America, Communicate with Me]" from the early 1970s.
* [[Covered Up]]:
** He was the first artist to release "Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down", which would later become a big hit for [[Johnny Cash]].
