I recognized Green Day's lyrics there, what else did you mash up? Normally something this repetitive wouldn't get full marks from me but they do fit the title quite well and I think you're the first to try this OS.

"Gold Digger" by Kanye West and Jamie Foxx (channeling Ray Charles), and "I can't sing and I have a big nose, and that's why I didn't steal your Boyfriend" by Ashlee the better-singing Simpson sister.
