Ain't We Got Fun? (1921)
Over the years, I've heard Ain't we Got Fun? used to advertise cruises and other destinations that promise "fun". The original, published in 1921 and recorded by Van & Schenck, it's as cheery with lyrics like, "the rich get richer and the poor get laid off". This song actually a sarcastic look at class differences from a poor couple's perspective.
