Imperial measures in songs

[gmaz]

So as the haunted pencil Jacob Rees Mogg is trying to bring back imperial measures. I think that they never went away in songs. Are there any songs that use metric? Of course the EU would have tried to force us to convert if we hadn't left, so we would have...

"I can see for kilometers and kilometers" - The Who

"I'm gonna give you every 25.4 millimeters of my love" - Led Zeppelin

"And I would walk 800 kilometers and I would walk 800 more" - The Proclaimers

"2 586ml glasses of larger and a packet of crisps" - Splodgenessabounds

Any others?
