Humorous breakup/"I'm over you" songs

As many of us know, laughter is the best medicine for many things, including heartbreak. What are some good humorous breakup songs? So far, I can think of:

1 More Minute - Weird Al
Since You've Been Gone - Weird Al
Warts On Your Dick - BASEketball soundtrack
Pearl Harbor Sucks - Team America Soundtrack
When I Was On Top Of You - Cannibal: The Musical (yes I'm a Trey Parker/Matt Stone fan)
She Fucking Hates Me - Puddle of Mudd

What are some others?

7. Here is a whole duel (medly)

She: "I made a mistake with you" (What a disappointment you have been)

He: "You say that you're leaving" (and you're still here)

She: "Don't Threaten me" (pick a road and just leave)

He: "You'll leave when I let you" (and you stay when I call you)

Both: "Drink this last bottle with me" (How little we've learned through the years)

Loudon Wainwright III's song "I'm Alright" is right up there... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3x_WfUjwH4

Woke up this morning, didn't feel that bad
Last night was definitely not
One of the worst I ever had
Ate a nice dinner, drank a few drinks
Didn't think about you baby no matter what you think
Went back to my hotel room, I went straight to bed
Didn't moan, didn't cry and
I did not wish I was dead, I'm alright, I'm alright
Yeah I'm alright baby, I'm alright without you

Woke up this morning, didn't have the blues
So I put on my tubesocks, laced up my running shoes
Went down to the reservoir to jog a mile or two
Didn't take about our love and I wasn't missing you
Went back to my hotelroom took a few phonecalls
Clean sheets on a made up bed & artwork on the wall
I'm alright, I'm alright
Yeah I'm alright baby, I'm alright without you

Woke up this afternoon and I sat up in the bed
There was a gnawing in my gut
And a poundin' in my head

So I went to the bathroom, to the medicine chest
There was sleepin' pills and razor blades & all the rest
But I was in control baby I was so relaxed
I found myself my dental floss,
My favourite kind, unwaxed
I'm alright, I'm alright
Yeah I'm alright baby, I'm alright without you

12. Another Loudon gem "Mr Guilty"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UdYANrdFy4 -- it may be the most sarcastic song I've ever heard

Call me Mr Guilty, Mr Guilty that's my name
Without a doubt it's all my fault, I'm the one to blame
You say that you're unhappy I do believe it's true
Cause I'm the one, the no good bum
That did it all to you.

I'm so sorry, sorry as a man can be
I'm so guilty, this is my apology
You have been a victim, a pawn in my cruel game
I done you wrong, and I strung you along
And now I'm full of shame

To compensate for damage done
Well there's not much I can do
So I sit and drink and I sit and think
Of all I done to you

You're a martyr, taking all this time
I'm a villan, guilty of a dreadful crime, cry me a river
All your tears and logic, you know they
Finally made me see
I deserve the shame, I deserve the blame
The guilt belongs to me. Yes you're innocent
You're as pure as driven snow
You've been had, I'm a cad, at least at last I know

[gmoney]

13. The new Cee-Lo Green song "Fuck You" is pretty awesome

"She wants to see you again...

11. Waylon Jennings - Kissing You Goodbye

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-LWLEPWMIU

You'll find your suitcase on the porch
And the taxi in the drive
So get your tongue out of my mouth
I'm kissing you goodbye

[EFerrari]

14. Amazing Grace / Amazing Rhythm Aces

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uH-yY4EAPZM

Amazing Grace, used to be her favorite song
Lord where's my good girl gone?
She was all I ever wanted
She was an angel for sure
She stands even now in my memory
So sweet and pure
But all that made me happy
Was a bottle and a song
Used to stay out drinkin'
While she cried all night long
Amazing Grace, used to be her favorite song
Lord where's my good girl gone?

She thought she could make me
Change in awhile so she learned
How to drink and she learned how to smile
I guess the pull of the bottle
Was just a little bit to strong
Now she's left me and
I don't know where she's gone
Amazing Grace, used to be her favorite song
Lord where's my good girl gone?

And then one night she said "I'm goin'..."
But she didn't say where
It didn't seem to matter
And I didn't really care
But now that I'm sober
And I can see it all
I know I'm to blame for her fall
Amazing Grace, used to be her favorite song
Lord where's my good girl gone?
Lord where's my good girl gone?

[Swede]

15. GWAR - Sick of You

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1kbu5yfLxc

Your socks they smell, your feet they stink,
You never take a bath.
Your nose it runs, you bust your buns,
You always finish last.

>Chorus: Sick! (Sick) Of! (Of) Youuuuu.
I'm so sick, so sick of you.

Your face is gross, you eat white toast,
You don't know what to do.
It's just your luck, you really suck,
That's all - I'm sick of you

(Chorus)

(Bring it down... I said bring it down! Thank you)

21. Not all that humorous: "Salt in My Tears" by Martin Briley

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bi5Oci3m3M

I never did it, no, I won't admit it
Why should I lie for you anymore
You never loved me, you pushed and shoved me
I see the woman I never saw

I saw you laugh when the knife was twisted
It still hurts but the pain has shifted
I'm lookin' back at the time that drifted by
But I won't cry for the wasted years
'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears

Feeling neglected, used and rejected
You need a shoulder to lean upon
Baby you picked him, found your next victim
Don't worry someone will come along

I broke the spell that you kept me under
I had enough of the rain and thunder
I lost track of the time and I wonder why
But I won't cry for the wasted years
'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears

I'll sit around and drink a few more beers
Until the memory just disappears
'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears

I saw you laugh when the knife was twisted
It still hurts but the pain has shifted
I'm lookin' back at the time that drifted by
But I won't cry for the wasted years
'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears

'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears
'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears
