You can always do what an advertiser on a certain station north of the 
state line does, which is to a) choose a song that is in the public 
domain, and b) sing it yourself.

The business in question is a gun store, and some of the spots are quite 
amusing (pistols as wedding gifts? 'Here comes the bride, gun by her 
side...").
