* Though the "[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colonel_Bogey_March Colonel Bogey March]]" was instrumental when it was originally composed during UsefulNotes/WorldWarI, it found new life during UsefulNotes/WorldWarII as a distinctly crude HailToTheThief-style SoundOff about UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler and ThoseWackyNazis. For propriety's sake, at the behest of the original composer's widow, the tune had to be whistled instead of sung during its iconic appearance in ''Film/TheBridgeOnTheRiverKwai'', making this song an example of both this trope and the [[ForgottenThemeTuneLyrics inverse]] at once!

* In WebAnimation/BowsersKoopalings, the Koopalings make a song called "Big Nose" to diss their spoiled bratty adoptive brother, Bowser Jr.

* In ''Film/ASeriesOfUnfortunateEvents'', there was a song called "Scream and Runaway" about [[BigBad Count Olaf]] in which Lemony Snicket holds up title cards. It says to avoid him and his villainous troupe and can be viewed[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4G5hzDqeE here]].

** "Believe me that no mother ever cried for Midnight..."

* While well-known as a freestanding pop favorite, the song "Mack the Knife" is actually a Villain Sucks Song (or an AntiHero is Actually a Really Nasty Dude Song) from Creator/BertoltBrecht and Kurt Weill's ''Theatre/TheThreepennyOpera''. It just gets hit really hard by [[TheCoverChangesTheMeaning the pop versions changing the mood on top of the translation toning it way down]]. More recent translations like in the 80s revival of the play with Creator/RaulJulia preserve more of the sinister German feel, and the original German title "Die Moritat von Mackie Messer" means "The Murder Ballad of Mack the Knife".

* When Dr. Eggman is found out not to have his doctorate in the ''WesternAnimation/SonicBoom'' episode "Mister Eggman", the entire village [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10ZoRNLfwos sings]] about how they no longer fear him and give him the new nickname "Mr. Eggman". Which Eggman just misses.

* "Working So The Count Can Dance" from the 2000 animated film "The Scarecrow" is all about how the villain, Count Grisham, is a slave-driver who runs his orphanage like a sweatshop.

* [[TropeCodifier "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch"]] from ''WesternAnimation/HowTheGrinchStoleChristmas'' consists entirely of some of the most creative and eloquent insults ever devised possibly in any language. During the song, the singer (Creator/ThurlRavenscroft) calls the Grinch "a mean one", "a monster", "a vile one", "a rotter", "the king of sinful sots", "a crooked jerky jocky", "a foul one" and "a nasty wasty skunk", likens the Grinch to "a bad banana with a greasy, black peel" and "a three-decker sauerkraut and toadstool sandwich with arsenic sauce", calls him "as cuddly as a cactus" and "as charming as an eel", notes they wouldn't touch the Grinch with a 39 1/2 ft. pole, describes him as having termites in his smile, claims he's about as tenderly sweet as a seasick crocodile (even choosing the crocodile over him), calls his brain "full of spiders", his heart "an empty hole", "a dead tomato splotch with moldy purple spots" and "full of unwashed socks", and even describes his soul as having garlic in it, "full of gunk", and "an appalling dump heap overflowing with the most disgraceful assortment of deplorable rubbish imaginable, mangled up in tangled up knots!" At the end of the song, the singer quotes three words best used to describe the Grinch: "stink", "stank", "stunk".

* The ''Fanfic/PonyPOVSeries'' has Princess Cadence, being the AnthropomorphicPersonification of Music, ''weaponize'' this during a fight with [[BigBad General Admiral Makarov]], delivering a MagicMusic beatdown with it after [[spoiler:supercharging herself using the bonds of her team.]]
* During the second season of ''Fanfic/TotalDramaEverything'', in the third aftermath, the eliminated and non-competing contestants sing a song named after [[BigBad Poison Ivy]], singing about how much they want to see her take the Drop Of Shame.

* ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama World Tour'' had several:

* ''WesternAnimation/CodenameKidsNextDoor'': "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ejH9RBmV9s Licorice, Licorice]]" from "Operation: L.I.C.O.R.I.C.E.", which doubles as a VillainSong. [[PirateSong Performed by Stickybeard and his crew]], it tells the story of [[DemBones Black John Licorice]], [[EvilVersusEvil a rival candy pirate]], who is described to be a more vicious pirate who'd "do anything for candy, even steal it from his mom".

* In Film/SuperMarioBros, Toad is arrested for singing one about Koopa as a street corner protest.

In period pieces, this can overlap with HailToTheThief. If it's sung to the villain, it could count as TheReasonYouSuckSpeech. For the villainous version, see TheHeroSucksSong. Compare WarningSong, a song that warns the listener about dangerous things or people.
