Line 46:
* Self primarily do non-comedic originals, but the outtake compilation ''Feels Like Breakin' Shit'' included a pair of parody songs: "Titanic" is a ''[[Titanic]]''-themed parody of [[The Pixies]]' "Gigantic" (which also includes a bit of [[Weezer]]'s "The World Has Turned And left Me Here"), while "Moronic" is a parody of [[Alanis Morissette]]'s "Ironic" that's a [[Take That]] to the original artist.
* "Puppet Dude" by [[J.G. Thirlwell|Foetus]] is an odd case of a ''stealth'' song parody: If you read the lyrics, they're clearly meant to fit the meter and rhyme scheme of [[Elton John|"Rocket Man"]], but the song itself sounds absolutely nothing like it.
* Garfunkel And Oates parodied their own "I Would Never (Have Sex With You)" as [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_ml27pscWY "I Would Never (Dissect An Ewe)"], while pretending to be an amateur tribute act called Simon And Hall.
* [[Dolly Parton]]'s "Jolene" (1973) has a [[Your Cheating Heart|jealous wife]] singing "Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, I'm begging of you please don't take my man." It inspired a few [[Answer Song]]s, which retell the same story from the point of view of another character. In 2021, the song became "Vaccine, vaccine, vaccine, vaccine, I'm begging of you please don't hesitate" in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
