"Let's Impeach the President," maybe? Not as big as the two you mentioned, but reasonably mainstream.

I think it's pretty clear that you have to write the other three verses now.

Of course, "Mary Jane's Last Dance" is also strikingly similar to The Jayhawks' "Waiting for the Sun," which Petty no doubt heard every night as they opened for the Heartbreakers in 1992.

Well, if they don't like it in the U.K., I don't see how anyone could possibly be interested.

Awful, awful, awful—and the sentimentality of the final scene was in no way earned or justified by the rest of the episode.

Most people I know don't know anything at all about the culture of, say, 1011. (I say most people because I teach college English
