"The Bob (Medley)" is a song written by Bryan Ferry and recorded by his band Roxy Music, appearing on the eponymous debut album. The song's title is an acronym for Battle of Britain. The sound of gunfire and explosions from the battlefields can be heard throughout the instrumental refrain.

"Bob" is a song and video by "Weird Al" Yankovic, from his 2003 album Poodle Hat, made up entirely of palindromes. The palindromes are arranged in rhyming verses such as the following: Madam, I'm Adam Too hot to hoot Go hang a salami, I'm a lasagna hog UFO Tofu No lemons no melon Too bad I hid a boot Lisa Bonet ate no basil Warsaw was raw Was it a car or a cat I saw? Pa's a sap Ma is as selfless as I am May a moody baby doom a yam?
"Bob" is performed in a style resembling Bob Dylan's vocal delivery. The song's video is a parody of Dylan's "Subterranean Homesick Blues" segment of the film Dont Look Back. The music resembles many of Dylan's twelve bar blues songs (particularly Bob Dylan's "115th Dream"): each verse includes ten bars of singing followed by two instrumental bars, with no chorus.
