Seeing one of the new lessons on this site about palindromes reminds me of a fun song by Weird Al where the lyrics are entirely palindromes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnJdxUwF1Wg

Bob - Named after Bob Dylan, the tune is Subterranean Homesick Blues

I, man, am regal A German am I
Never odd or even
If I had a hi-fi
Madam, I'm Adam
Too hot to hoot
No lemons, no melon
Too bad I hid a boot

Lisa Bonnet ate no basil
Warsaw was raw
Was it a car or a cat I saw?

Rise to vote, Sir
Do geese see God?
Do nine men interpret? "Nine men", I nod
Rats live on no evil star
Won't lovers revolt now?
Race fast, safe car

Pa's a sap
Ma is as selfless as I am
May a moody baby doom a yam?

Ah, Satan sees Natasha
No devil lived on
Lonely Tylenol
Not a banana baton
No X in Nixon
O, stone, be not so
O Geronimo, no minor ego
"Naomi", I moan
A Toyota's a Toyota
A dog, a panic in a pagoda

Oh, no! Don ho
Nurse, I spy gypsies run
Senile felines
Now I see bees I won
UFO tofu
We panic in a pew
Oozy rat in a sanitary zoo
God! A red nugget! A fat egg under a dog
Go hang a salami, I'm a lasagna hog
