So, a lot of people born in the late '90s and the early to mid '00s might remember a film called "Shorts", released in 2009 and directed by Robert Rodriguez (who also directed "Spy Kids", "Desperado", "Planet Terror", "Sin City", etc.). The most interesting character in the film is Helvetica Black, played by Jolie Vanier, who really acts like Helga from "Hey Arnold!", in the fact that she bullies the main character because she really likes him. She (spoiler alert) gains the ability to turn into a giant wasp later in the film, and really sets it going (but don't even get me started on the Tarantino Lunchtime scene). In the "party" scene in the film, Helvetica gets ahold of the rock and starts wishing for things like for her father to "listen to her" (which will give him big ears) and a rocket bike. There's a song there though that I really liked and really spotlights the character. The song is called "Helvetica!", and there is no download link available of the song.
Here's two videos relating to the song: the first one is the clip from the movie, and the second is from an interview with Jimmy Bennett & Jolie Vanier singing the song.
