We have one called "Westerland". It's a song - played by people visiting Sylt, an island where mostly elitist live and rich white people go on vacation. In one verse, they sing "And every person next to me is as dumb as I am.". The irony is lost to them as the chorus is "I want to be back in Westerland".
Nobody should use songs by Die Ärzte in earnest for that kind of purpose - they're tinged with irony and sarcasm as a matter of principle. I love the band for that.
