Just out: "The Great Boston Molasses Flood" by the Dead Milkmen:

Sweet holy Jesus, there's a wall of molasses coming for me and my fam-i-lee.

Listen to the lyrics at the beginning, and you'll notice that whoever wrote them obviously read their Puleo.

Cool. Party like it's 1989.

The In Out beat the Milkmen to this one.
"Death By Molasses" came out in 2011.

And they said death was never so sweet ...

Author of these lyrics also seems to be well acquainted with Dark Tide.
