Songs that spell things out

Scraping the bottom of the barrel here, and this may very well tank, but name songs that words are spelled out (by singing, shouting, rapping, whatever...) in the lyrics.


R.O.C.K. In The U.S.A. - John Cougar Mellencamp

R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A.
R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A.
R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A., Yeah, Yeah!
Rockin' in the U.S.A.


Ouija Board - Morrissey

The table is rumbling
The glass is moving
No, I was not pushing that time
It spells : S.T.E.V.E.N.

The table is rumbling
The glass is moving
No, I was not pushing that time :
P.U.S.H.O. double F.


Saturday Night - The Bay City Rollers


S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y night
S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y night
S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y night
S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y night


The Groover - T. Rex

T . R . E . X!
Some call me Arnie
Some name me Slim
It don't make no difference
'Cos I move right in
They call me the groover
