Songs sort of grotesquely misused in marketing campaigns

"Mack the Knife" (McDonalds)
-The guy comes into town and all the women have been raped and the men are dead and robbed. Who wants a burger?!

"Feelin' Alright" (Bartles and Jaymes)
-A song sarcastically sung by someone well and truly fucked to the person who well and truly fucked them.

"Beautiful World" (Target)
-You've got everything and I've got nothing. Another sarcastic one.

"Fortunate Son" (Wrangler)
-Bitter, bitter anti war song. Not so much with the loving of the American Way.
