What opening lines from songs are another way of saying "this sucks"

On the favorite lines thread, I posted "Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends".. as a joke, of course...

Then I got to thinking about:
"What song is it you want to hear?"
&
"There's a lady who's sure, all that glitters is gold"

..as universal cliches/jokes about songs you hope to never hear again...

Other opening lines (or notes) that would cause most people to change the station immediately...

In the 80's after about a week of top-40 radio it was:
"Dearly Beloved, We are gathered here today...."

"Throw your hands up in the air! / act like you just don't care!"
I can assure you, It's not an act.
