Realistically, that would get annoying pretty fast and I'd soon learn to hate any song I chose. So I'd pick 4′33″, which is four minutes and 33 seconds of silence.
But otherwise I'd pick "One Bad Tank", from the video game Left4Dead2. It's the song that plays when the boss enemy enters a particular map.
The best final boss music to a video game was 29 years ago and has not been topped since. Of course, with the rise of PlayStation and disc-based games (ironically, where Final Fantasy 7 was released and in which form), games became more about the journey than that final fight. There were still "last boss fights," but they became less the focus and more about the end of the journey. But after beating Sephiroth for the first time, and he sprouts a wing (just the one!) and this song kicks in, and the real fight begins... that's when you knew you were in some shit. Especially if you reached max level and Sephiroth took literally an hour to beat (I think this was an early anti-cheat thing).
Holy shit it is the Adventures of Briscoe County Jr. theme!
It's not some classic composer or something; it was literally written for that show and since it was such a good song and the show got cancelled after one season they totally snatched it up!
Either the opening of take me out or a little ways in to pinball wizard if it has to be very short, if longer than the opening from people say I'm over the top
Since in most scenarios I'd prefer people left the room when I entered, I don't know- the opening SCREAM from the President song In The Name of The Father?

You could also do the Steve Austin “Won’t Do What You Tell Me”. Glass shatters

Anyone who doesn’t pick this will quickly be insane, and have no friends. I walk through a lot of doorways in a day.

At first I was thinking of 45:33 from lcd sound system. But the John Cage background noise is a much better choice.

It does contain a sample of 4'33" if you listen carefully

The first 2-3 seconds of the Cowboy Bebop theme..
Second choice: ~0:48 to about 1:00 of Theme for Jetsetters by The Tikiyaki Orchestra (assuming a fade out near the end)
Third choice: Acapella version of the Pokemon Red Rival Appears music for about 14 seconds. People in the room find themselves disoriented and confused, wondering why on earth they started singing when I walked in.

If you want to come across as the murderous villain you might as well pick bodies by drowning pool. Or pumped up kicks.

One-Winged Angel. Just the intro, before the Latin. Specifically this version.

From "Young Frankenstein", by the way. I couldn't resist finding out where that came from. It's the scene where they first arrive at the castle.

Mine would have to be Oops I Did It Again, it'd just be the start of the chorus. I think that would nearly always fit the situation.
