You're crediting Steve Miller with "…really love your peaches, wanna…" etc.? He lifted almost that entire verse from "Lovey Dovey", a big R&B hit from the 50's, written by Memphis Edward Curtis and Ahmet Ertegun and recorded by the Clovers:

When Czechoslovakia split apart, I was so hoping that the Czech part would name itself Bohemia and that they would make Bohemian Rhapsody their national anthem.

The REAL point of origin of the Blues Brothers, is that Belushi was in Eugene, Oregon filming "Animal House", and he stopped in at local student hangout Old Taylor's and saw a Portland white blues boy Curtis Salgado… and suddenly, everything his pal Aykroyd had been yakking at him about the sanctity of The Blues made

To me, more than anything, Jack Davis is the master of insane, over-the-top visual humor.* No one draws people going apeshit like Jack Davis — limbs contorted, eyes wide, mouth agape; yet it's always obvious whether it's out of fear, excitement, pain, anger, gunshot blast, or whatever.

That got me to thinking: I agree that a lot of those grunge-ish cock-rock-revival singers sound GENERALLY like "hunger dunger dang", but what phrases in those 90's hits — besides that one above — have phrases that sound SPECIFICALLY like they're saying "hunger dunger dang"?

Just thought it was funny. I'm not trying to get anyone riled up. At this point, I'm totally peacing out! It's been two long days since the OP OP'd, and I just want to bring everybody together — the chowderheads, the trolls, the hipsters, douchebags, REM/Offspring/EPMD fans, attention hogs, sociopaths, cookie
