"The Complexity of Songs" was an article published by Donald Knuth, an example of an in-joke in computer science, namely, in computational complexity theory. The article capitalizes on the tendency of popular songs to evolve from long and content-rich ballads to highly repetitive texts with little or no meaningful content.With a grain of truth, Knuth writes that "...our ancient ancestors invented the concept of refrain" to reduce the space complexity of songs, which becomes crucial when a large number of songs is to be committed to one's memory.

Knuth's Lemma 1 states that if N is the length of a song, then the refrain decreases the song complexity to cN, where c 1.
