Songs with clever lyrics?

[TheRiddler]

I realized a while ago that most of the music I listen to is either instrumental, or has bland lyrics (I normally listen for the instrumental performance). One way or the other, at least in music that I listen to, lyrics are either boring and sentimental or nonexistent.

So what are some songs with some witty lyrics that you guys like? Preferably, at least bearable to listen to (average or better music and vocals).

A Lot Like Birds have fantastic lyrics, music, and vocals:

Can we pick out specific lyrics or do we have to do entire songs?
"Shorty you're fine but you sort of remind me of a 49er
Cause you been a gold digger since you was a minor"
Asshole-Eminem

Hands Like Houses have amazing vocals and general awesomeness.

I really like the story the lyrics tell and how the tone of the music is so upbeat when the guy is singing about suicide. It's not poetry, but I always like songs that sing about something other than romance.

As for individual lines:
Might as well go for a soda,
Nobody hurts no body cries.
Might as well go for a soda,
Nobody drowns nobody dies.

However that's because I know a bunch of drama causing alcoholics who laugh at me for refusing to drink with them.
