Lloyd Cole's "To the Church" is about the only thing I can think of that hasn't been cited already.

Godspeed You! Black Emperor have just issued a statement, they no longer consider you a fan. Please don't try to buy their t-shirts anymore.

They knew they were dealing with someone with a suspect brain!
