Who could forget such classics as "Puff The Magic Clean Coal Plant" or "If I Hired A Hammer" or "This Land Is My Land And I Stand My Ground" or "Where Have All The Flowers Gone? That Gardener Is So Fired!"?

Or this old gem:

How many roads most a man drive down
Before he must buy a bigger van?
How many times must we crash the market
Before we can buy all the land?
Yes, how many times must the Occupiers cry
Before they're forever banned ?
Capitalism, my friend, is blowin' in the wind
Capitalism is blowin' in the wind.
