Also there is an APS from the 20's or 30's --Not sure of the title but the refrain is "Dancin' with the dolly with the whole in her stocking.." A fifties tune.." Come along and be my party doll..' The theme from Valley of the Dolls and the Christmas tune Toyland.
The was also a teenybopperish type top 40 song in the 90's, i believe the title was something like 'I Wanna Be Barbie'. However , if I remember correctly it was quite controversial and sexist--Musically I remember it was certainly not the type of material for anyone who could actually sing.
:jc ps- The Deja.com alt.music.lyrics newsgroup is great for this type of question. I was doing a cabaret show a while back and asked for songs about the Moon--I think I got close to 300 responses in a week from all over the globe.
