Woot!

"Way on the other side of the Hudson, deep in the bosom of suburbia," from "Ariel," wonderfully covered by the Tone Rangers. Sadly, I do not remember the name of the original artist.

"The girl with kaleidoscope eyes / Lucy in the sky with diamonds" from "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds," by the Beatles.

"He found his aroma lacked a certain appeal / He could clear the savannah after every meal" from "Hakuna Matata," from The Lion King, (and by Elton John, I think.)

And I may be mondegreening this one, but "...and Thoreau / I say, 'My name is T-Bone!' / And a hound dog digs a hole" from "Existential Blues," by T-Bone Stankus.

(Alternately, there's "Hard Hearted Hannah, the tramp of Savannah, GA." Title is "Hard Hearted Hannah," I don't recall the artist.)

I'm fairly sure I know which song you have in mind for Yorick, but I don't actually know any of the lyrics. :-)
