Janis Joplin's "Mercedes Benz" was one of the first things I thought about when we were asked to bring in an example of satire. Joplin drove a Porsche, and probably got by okay but didn't really care too much about what people thought about her. Her song Mercedes Benz is a great example of her putting it out there how so many people expect to get something for nothing. People are never satisfied with what they have, and at times come over purely ridiculous.
