Ha! Good one.
But, it sounds more like a classic two liner by Macc Lads to me.

And of course.....
"Maybe we should panic - maybe run a little hard
And maybe we should kill ourselves and fill ourselves with lard"
Shit - that reminded me of when I sang that with Mick Bund of Felt/Mexico 70 who died recently - RIP Mick.

Slightly trite compared to some of the above but I've always liked Blur's classic
"Educated the expensive way, he knows his claret from his Beaujolais"

More of a non-rhyme this, but wonderfully indicative of Richard Sinclair's intent to avoid any Americanisms creeping into the Canterbury Scene, is this little gem from Caravan's 1982 LP 'Back To Front':
Above Rancheros caff
Back to Herne Bay front
It's not Hotel California
But the electric bar fires warm you
(N.B. He deliberately sings "you" and not "ya". True art - in the most Kentish sense!)

Super Furry Animals have always had some nice contributions, this is from Shoot Doris Day
"People never stay the same
It's a fight between the strong and lame
I've some feelings that I can't get through
I'll just binge on Crack and Tiramisu"
