Creedence
"Don't go out tonight, it's bound to take your life. There's a bathroom on the right"
The Beatles
"She's got a chicken to ride, and she don't care"
I'll get my coat.
Outstanding
Please keep these coming. I don't have Photoshop but they are very entertaining.
"America" - Simon & Garfunkel
I hadn't heard of Michigan as a child. I can't remember how I interpreted the line about Mrs Wagner's pies.
[Sorry, no fancy Photoshop!]
We Have A Winner
"'Scuse Me While I Kiss This Guy"
Absolutely
Seamless

Last one, I promise.

Oooh
... it's come over all B3ta.
The Police - Every breath You Take
"How my poor heart aches..."
My favourite so far

I'd love to
and have just spent a good few minutes on my masterpiece, but haven't the foggiest how to link to images/upload images if the img html function is disabled. Fraser?
Images
Image HTML isn't disabled - it's BBcode which isn't allowed. And if that doesn't make sense, the FAQ reveals all.
Ha!
"The FAQ reveals all," he says. Ha! When you Wordies start a blog entry with a pics, you somehow manage to get the text to start flush to the right of them, rather than having an Unsightly White Space there with the text beginning below. So what's the trick?
Aha!
We're getting into advanced HTML now. The trick we use there is the 'align' property.
<img src="http://www.site.com/image.jpg" align="left"> and the text here.
Cor!
Ta (again), Fraser.
I think I'm there - worth the suspense, you'll agree:
Glorious
Is that a nice bit of topside?
You been to the finest schools
Alright, Miss Lonely
But you know you only
Used to get Houston eggs
Alf Garnett
Some great examples above, though this is still the masterwork of this genre:

Lyric Theatre
Fraser has got this splendid thread well sorted, but there has been some earlier web-based lyric lampoonery available from rathergood.com. They particularly favour
Mick Hucknall.
As well as;
Destiny's Child
Madonna.
Bronski Beat
Beatles again.
It's all in the timing
Great minds, etc...
Queen - Princes of the Universe
"No man could understand my power is in my own hand."
Household furnishings, Satan, Bob Dylan...
other household furniture
Bohemian Rhapsody:
"Beelzebub had a devil for a sideboard..."
Good Morning Good Morning
"Watching the skirts you start to burp, now you're in gear".
Honestly, it wasn't until an hour ago that I realised that Lennon wasn't burping. Oh! Flirt!
Bat Out Of Hell
I misheard the lyric:
"I gonna ride a silver black phantom bike...." to
"Cilla Black phantom bike..."
Lotta of laughs ensured.
Macy Gray - I Try
....and though I try to hide it, it's clear/I wear goggles when you're not here
Motörhead - Ace of Spades
"The ace of spades, the ace of spades."
