No; an *existing* commercial pop example has copyright issues.
Using a copyleft pop song would be fine as long as we include the
copyleft license issues (attribution, etc).  Inventing a new pop
song sidesteps all the above.

Chords: I IV V I
Lyrics: oh baby, oh baby, oh baby
(alternate: oh baby, you're the sodium to my chloride / when we're
separate, we kill / but when we're togetherrrrrr... / we taste good
on corn)

ok, those alternate lyrics won't fit into a small example.
Whatever.  We can come up with some pop lyrics!

Melody: dunno, whatever fits into the I IV V I pattern.

Fancy notation: dunno what kind of fancy notation exists for pop
stuff.  I suppose we don't *need* to make it actually pop music;
we could include an example of classically engraved death metal.
That would also use chord changes, but we could add notations like
"tear out hair" and "smash guitar".


Whoever does this, have some fun with it!

Cheers,
