I think you misunderstand me. I don’t think most people knew how the test worked, only that there was a rabbit involved. They figured that if it died, the test was positive.
I hadn’t thought of that godawful song in years, and now it’s stuck in my head. Thanks. 
“Rendez-vous then I’m throuuuugh with youuuu…”
If I recall correctly (and there’s any truth to it), they were referencing a New York Times article.
I ran into some lyrics that always give me pause yesterday - Neil Diamond from"I Am, I Said" - “I am, I said to no one there and no one heard, not even the chair.” That’s just really, really lame.
Joe Jones’s “You Talk Too Much.” Great song, but those opening lines!
You talk too much.
You worry me to death.
You talk too much,
You even worry my pet . . .
Admitted, “What–are you strung out on meth?” would have been too controversial, but “You never run out of breath” makes tons more sense–and it actually rhymes!
As far as lame rhymes go, my teeth-grinder has always been dance/romance/take a chance.
mmm
ETA: Just once, I’d like to hear an ‘askance’ thrown in the mix.
Back when I was attending science-fiction conventions (or “cons”) a lot, I wrote:
Just another con romance:
Happened quite by circumstance.
Discussed LeGuin and Clarke and Vance,
She stuck her hand into my pants.
Just another con romance . . .
Maybe I’ll work on another verse, just so I can include Guildenstern and Rosencrantz . . .
I think that rhyming anything with “alibi” takes the cake, as in “Big Girls Don’t Cry” or “Hotel California.” It’s such an uncommon word, and is used in songs only because it’s a convenient rhyme for other much more common words (like “cry,” “lie,” or, in the plural, “surprise,”) making it sound forced every time.
I found the lyrics for Lou Bega’s Mambo No. 5, and it’s confusing as hell.
One, two, three, four, five
Everybody in the car, so come on
Let’s ride to the liquor-store around the corner
The boys say they want some gin and juice
But I really don’t wanna
Beerbust like I had last week
I must stay deep
because talk is cheap
I like Angela, Pamela, Sandra and Rita
Ans as I continue you know
They are getting sweeter
So what can I do I really beg you my Lord
To me is flirting it’s just like sport, anything fly
It’s all good let me dump it
Please set in the trumpet
I’m not entirely certain it’s in English.
Ball of Confusion by The Temptations
Great googlymoogly
Cantcha hear me talkin to ya?
I always wondered if that was improvised or did someone actually write “Great Googly Moogly!”
From “Nothing but a G Thing”
You don’t say?
“Great Googly Moogly” is an old exclamation that has appeared in numerous songs (Howlin’ Wolf’s “Goin’ Down Slow,” the Cadets’ “Stranded in the Jungle,” Frank Zappa’s “Nanook Rubs It”).
What’s this? No mention yet of the great Elvis Presley singing about that infamous co-ed prison?
Number forty-seven said to number three, “You’re the cutest jailbird I ever did see!”
I mean, that was indeed a co-ed prison, right?
Right?
When Elvis performed the song on film his fellow inmates were clearly all men: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpzV_0l5ILI
That said, the song is explicitly about a county jail, and these facilities are normally “co-ed”. Not in terms of the actual cells of course, and probably not the cell block either, but male and female prisoners would typically be in the same building.
