Line 65:
* "Ten Dollar Solo" from ''[[Commentary! The Musical]]'' is entirely about itself.
* [[Tobuscus]]' "Dramatic Song" is [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|an emotional-sounding song]]... as long as you don't speak English. The lyrics simply explain the fact that he's not singing about anything serious or dramatic but it just sounds like that, all whilst lampshading the music, vocals and how foreign people who don't speak English might find this song intense. See it [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WteF0j5gYGk#! here].
* Similarly, [[Sandra Boynton]]'s [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OeAfI7GxUQQ "Chanson Profonde"] is a song in French about how the ''sound'' of the song might deceive non-French speakers into thinking it's terribly serious, but it is in fact nothing of the sort, being mostly observations on how the song is basically random phrases in French, plus random phrases in French, along with sincere hopes that the listener can't understand French. This is helped by a performance by cellist [[Yo-Yo Ma]]... {{spoiler|and undermined by a short accordion solo by [["Weird Al" Yankovic]]}}.
