What I like to do is come up with random jokes and punchlines first. Sometimes even before choosing the people. For example, I came up with "everybody, anybody, even Nobody knows" before deciding to use Homer. Then I just got them in at a random place. If it's a punchline, put it at the end of a couplet. If it's a really good punchline, put it at the end of four lines. If it's a really good punchline, put it at the end of the verse. If it's one of the best punchlines in the battle, put it at the end of the battle. Then find a nice build up, sometimes involving the same reference, sometimes a different reference. Once you have all the lyrics figured out, go ahead and piece them together in a way that flows altogether nicely. Finally, enjoy your handiwork.
