After some careful thought, two songs come to mind:

"Copa Cabana" by Barry Manilow
http://www.angelfire.com/va/srisons/cabana.html

"Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl..."

"Ice Ice Baby" by Vanilla Ice
http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip...23/icebaby.txt

"Take heed, 'caese I'm a lyrical poet..."

Oddly enough "Ice Ice Baby" was sampled from one of my favorite songs.

"Under Pressure" by Queen and David Bowie
http://www.queenwords.com/lyrics/songs/sng19_02.shtml

I ran a DJ company when "Ice Ice Baby" was released and it killed nightly to play this shit on the big speakers to a roomful of screaming girls. Sometimes I'd slip "Under Pressure" into the mix just to watch the crowd turn on me. I never had the time to explain the song was a rip off...
