15. Very White by Chevy Chase

I can't find the song anywhere. He performed it on SNL. It was hilarious. Parody of Barry White. Song about white privilege.

I only found partial lyrics:

"Baby, I remember the first time I saw you — you were down on the beach, entertaining the Van Der Camps. And I was at the tennis camp, looking for a fourth for mixed doubles."

All done in Barry White style with lots of Oooooh baby, Ooooooh baby, babyyyyy
