Insulting Lyrics:

"They're Coming To Take Me Away, Ha-Haaa!" by Napoleon XIV
The Insulting Lyrics:
Well, you just wait, they'll find you yet,
And when they do, they'll put you
In the ASPCA, you mangy mutt!
Why They're Insulting:
Crazed verbal payback for ungratefulness. But what makes it more interesting is listeners may be confused over whether he's addressing his pet dog or his ex-girlfriend (hence the "mangy mutt" reference)

"Death on Two Legs (Dedicated To...)" by Queen
The Insulting Lyrics:
But now you can kiss my ass goodbye.
