- Whatever and Ever Amen in "The Battle of Who Could Care Less" (Ben Folds Five)
- Under the Table and Dreaming in "Ants Marching" (Dave Matthews Band)

Super, extra double bonus points though to Culture Club. Kissing to be Clever is a line that appears in "Miss Me Blind" on the 1983 Colour by Numbers album. Kissing to be Clever was their 1982 release.

Yeah, well, they say it takes a dork to know a dork...DORK! Tee hee!
I agree... I think too few people take time to pause and really get into the lyrics of an album, and into why an album is called what it is. I see you cite Ben Folds AND Ben Lee-- someone's been seeing the "Bens" concert series. I got to see Ben with Rufus Wainwright recently, and Ben Lee was supposed to perform, too-- but the weather cut the concert short, so only the last two acts went on. Quel dommage.
