My wife and I were laughing at the ridiculous lyrics in some modern songs and decided to create a playlist compiling some of the "best." Please help us flesh it out and make some suggestions. We are looking for songs that have silly double entendres, puns, or other word play. They can be intentionally funny or a song that the lyricist thought was really clever (but really isn't).
Examples:
"Bedrock" by Young Money - "Call me Mr. Flintstone. I can make your bedrock."
"Queen of Hearts" by Jason Derulo - "I used to be the King of Clubs, but now those days are done...so I'm throwin' out all my cards, cuz I think I've finally found the Queen of Hearts."
They don't have to be hip hop, though that genre does tend to lend itself to this kind of thing.
Help me, PA. You're my only hope.

Chuck Berry - My Ding-a-Ling
Roy Brown - Butcher Pete
Lil Wayne - Lollipop
Kelis - Milkshake
AC/DC - Big Balls
Buckwheat Boyz - Peanut Butter Jelly Time (yep it has a double meaning)
Clarence Carter - Strokin (ehhh - maybe not, lol)
Lupe Fiasco - Kick Push
Lady Gaga - Poker Face
If I think of more I'll post - are you only looking for modern songs?
For example: Milkshake and Big Balls went right into the playlist (thanks!), but My Ding-a-Ling or Butcher Pete didn't.
Thanks again for your help. Keep 'em coming.
Anthrax - I'm The Man is full of silly/ridiculous puns and wordplay and is from when they were practically a household name
Van Halen - Ice Cream Man
80's hair metal must be full of it, although I can't think of anything specific off the top of my head.
This is pushing it, but the title of Nazareth's Hair of the Dog is wordplay. The song and album were originally titled Son of a Bitch, but they weren't allowed to use that, so they went to Heir of the Dog and then from there to Hair of the Dog.
Justin B - Never say Never
Robbie Williams = "What's so great about the great depression/Is it a blast for you?/Because it's blas-phe-my
Frank Zappa - I'm not black, but there's a whole lotta times I wish I could say I'm not white
Red Hot Chili peppers - Californication
"Liquor in the front… Poker in the Rear." not sure if this is a quote or song lyrics?
Aerosmith "If you see kay, tell her I love her, She did me in but Ill recover (say the first 4 words)
??? "My anaconda dont wont none unless you got buns hun"
shaggy - it wasn't me
One of our Karaoke favorites and unsure who sang it originally... "If i had a million dollars, Id be rich"
Some of these I found on other websites but had fun doing it
Really? Really??? Sir Mixalot, Baby Got Back.
Barenaked Ladies, If I Had A Million Dollars. The best version is probably the live one from the Rock Spectacle album.
Jesus, kids today...
For the extremely blatant, I'll go with Convetional Lover by Speck, and Romantic Cheapskate by MC Frontalot.
