Speedy Gonzales
While the term Speedy Gonzales has roots in the Mexican community that may be of questionable benefit to them culturally, and is well-known north of the border as a mouse of extraordinary prowess in making Sylvester the cat look foolish, he was also the subject of a 1962 song by Pat Boone, where he is a playboy leaving his family in the lurch, and a rarer song by The Wurzels, where he is located in Somerset, UK, with the same problem, but "anglicized".
Speedy Gonzales as a British bad boy ends up having to get British groceries instead of Mexican ones, gets green stamps with his scrumpy (hard cider), etc. It is quite a giggle, as are most of The Wurzels songs.
