Yeah, but I don't really think of him as "Creepy".  Though I will 
wholeheartedly go along with it, since it gives us another acronym: CVG.

He does lie to us a lot (q.v. Daniel T. Glover), but I'm sure that's 
TPTB putting words in his mouth.

I actually have a hard time telling, since they all sound the same nowadays!

Perhaps better choices:

"Hold On Tight", Electric Light Orchestra
"Roll On Down The Highway", Bachman Turner Overdrive ("The time's real 
short, you know the distance is long/I'd rather have a jet, but it's not 
in the song" - AWESOME!)
"Carrie Ann", The Hollies ("...where is your magic disappearing?")
"Tired of Waiting", The Kinks
"Even Hitler Had A Girlfriend", Mr. T Experience
	("...Life is full of contradictions, hard to understand,
	And for every happy woman there's a lonely man.
	Nixon had his puppy Charles Manson had his clan,
	But God forbid that I get a girlfriend.
	Even Hitler had a girlfriend who he could call his own,
	To sweeten days of bitterness and feeling all alone.
	I'm not as bad as Hitler but it doesn't mean a thing,
	Since they'd rather be with Hitler more than me.
	I don't see
	Why they'd rather be with Hitler more than me.")
"Summer Lovin'", Grease Soundtrack
"Saddest Vacant Lot In All The World", Grandaddy (sorta backwards, but 
it would work... well, if he drove a Datsun.)
"My Way", Limp Bizkit.

My Lord, I should just show up in Hollywood and start making the most 
awesome TV shows ever.
