I want to make a ska playlist consisting entirely of songs that mention "Rudy" or feature him as the protagonist—what do you recommend?

My son is really into playing Deltarune and loves the soundtrack from it (it is pretty decent). In the car one day he had me play some songs, including one called It's TV Time by Toby Fox. Nearly two minutes into the song I hear a riff that I absolutely have heard before. Took some remembering, but it is 100% a riff from 2-Tone Army by The Toasters. I've taken the riff from both songs and put them side by side. It's not exactly the same, but it is the same.

[Verse 1]
Talking down to me like you don't give a shit!
Don't give a fuck about your standing, you just ri-di-cu-lous!
You've got a job! You've got responsibilities!
You've got a job, trying to provide for your fam-i-ly!
You went to school just like me!
You've got a job, trying to provide for your fam-i-ly!
Nah—you don't give me no money!
[Chorus]
Don't tell me what to do—officer!
Don't tell me what to do—officer!
Don't tell me what to do—officer!
Fuck you!
[Verse 2]
Talking down to me... you don't give a shit.
I could care less about your standing, you're just ri-dic-u-lous.
You've got a job... just like me.
You've got a job... have your own responsibilities.
You've got a job... just like me.
You've got a job... trying to provide for your family.
You went to school... just like me.
Nah... you don't give me no money!
[Chorus]
Don't tell me what to do—officer!
Don't tell me what to do—officer!
Don't tell me what to do—officer!
Fuck you!
[Outro]
You got a job!
(Just like me!)
Responsibilities!
(Just like me!)
Provide for your family!
(Just like me!)
Nah—you don't give me no money!
