I gave you a brand new Ford, but you said "I want a Cadillac"

I bought you a ten dollar dinner, you said "Thanks for the snack"

I let you live in my penthouse, you said it was just a shack

I gave you seven children, and now you want to give them back!!!!

exactly! I know BB has done some humorous bits like this. Also in "Better Not Look Down" he has a conversation with the Queen of England ("and she looked at me and said, 'Aren't You BB King?'")

EVERYONE knows BB!
He has had great talking-story songs like the story of his
guitar, "Lucille"...
