Music Trivia -> Lighter Side of Serious Bands -> Y
Some bands don't wait around for Weird Al to parody one of their songs, and take a pre-emptive strike and write a silly song of their own.
Entries Beginning with Y
"Yellow Submarine," The Beatles
From the 1968 animated movie of the same name. Not about drugs though.

"You Know My Name (Look up the Number)," The Beatles
Sounds like nothing they'd regularly do, with funny voice overs and just the title of the song sung over and over again like a cheap lounge act in a bar.

"You're Gonna Miss Me When I'm Gone," George Thorogood
This is the earlier song, on a later album he has the same exact song with completely different lyrics. (*"Can't Be Satisfied"*) Kind of like John Fogerty accused of ripping off "Run Through the Jungle" for "The Old Man Down the Road."KQC
