There’s an old tamizh movie song that could be adapted as a viruttam, I suppose:
Or iDam tanilE nilai illAdulaginilE
uruNDODiDum paNam kAsenum
uruvamAna poruLE

Or words to that effect. You can listen to the song here:

[ajaysimha]

as the song is based out on money/wealth
here is a composition by purandara dasaru which says money(duggani) is like bad-men's company
(so any charanam can be chosen from here as prelude to the song)
||P||
DuggaNi embodu Durjana sangha
Duggani balu keTTa daNNa

||C1||
Achara helodu Duggani -bahu
nichara maDodu Duggani
Nachike illade mane mane tirugi
chi chi ennodu duggani

||C2||
nenta tana helodu Duggani -Bahu
nentara nudisodu Duggani
Onte hange more melakke selakondu
kunta nenisu vudu Duggni anna

||C3||
manava gelisuvu du Duggani
mana hadage disuvu du Duggani
Bahu mana nidhi shri purandara vittalana
kanisad iruvu du Duggani anna



and here are some of ugabhogas and vachanas which are based out on the same ideology of paname song :

ugabhogas:
Maneyinda santosha kelavarige lokadolu
dhanadinda santosha kelavarige lokadolu
vaniteyinda santosha kelavarige lokadolu
tanayarinda santosha kelavarige lokadolu
initu santosha avaravarigagali ninna nenevo
santosha enagagali namma rangavittala ||
***
Dhanadase dainya padisutide
Vaniteyarase odadisutide
Manadase mantrava kedisutide
Manevarteyase manava badhisutide
Initaraseya bidisi ninna caranangala
Nenevante mado purandaravithala
***

Vachanas:
saMsAraveMbudu oMdu gALiya soDaru!

***

I think the adjective was humorous!

[Rajani]

An irony-filled verse from Neeti Shatakam of Bhartrhari

यस्यास्ति वित्तं स नरः कुलीनः
स पण्डितः स श्रुतवान् गुणज्ञः।
स एव वक्ता स च दर्शनीयः
सर्वेगुणाः काञ्चनमाश्रयन्ति॥
Yasyaasti vittam sa narah kuleenah sa panditah sa shrutavaan gunajnah
Sa eva vaktaa sa cha darshaneeyah, sarve gunaah kaanchanamaashrayanti 1.40

The man who has wealth is considered born of a good family, learned, and capable of recognizing merit. He is an orator, he is handsome. All qualities are depend on gold/wealth.

[Pratyaksham Bala]

चाणक्यनीति

त्यजन्ति मित्राणि धनैर्विहीनं
दाराश्च भृत्याश्च सुहृज्जनाश्च ।
तं चार्थवन्तं पुनराश्रयन्ते ।
ह्यर्थो हि लोके पुरुषस्य बन्धुः ।।

cANakyanIti

tyajanti mitrANi dhanairvihInam

Friends leave the man without wealth. Wife, sons and other affectionate people also abandon him. But, they all return when the man is wealthy again. Wealth is the only real relative in this world.

When it comes to vyangam in virutham-a humorous twist, PB and Rajani, your choices I do like, but I prefer Ravi's lines--a tamizh intro to the song, and wonder which poet-lyricist wrote 'uruNDODiDum paNam for that Lalitha, Padmini dance number. Slueths like PB can easily find out.

All the lines, as I remember:

uruNDODiDum paNam kAsenum uruvamAna poruLE!
OriDamtanilE, nilai nillAdulaginilE (uruNDODiDum paNam)

Urum pERum teriyAdavarai uyarndOr AkkiDumE (adu ) (uruNDODiDum)

kAsu, nalla kAriyam seyyAdu
kaN mUDit tUNgak karuNai kATTAdu
kaLavu kolaiyuNDAkkum
kavalai migavum sErkkum,
kAmuRum inbamum.....ellAme..... (OriDam tanilE)

please fill in the missing words, those of you who remember...

[Sachi_R]

What a fine collection! Thanks folks.

Here are two more:

1. Adi Sankara:


bhaja govindam (5)
yāvadvittopārjanaśaktaḥ
tāvannijaparivāro raktaḥ |
paścājjīvati jarjaradehe
vārtāṁ kopi na pṛcchati gehe ||

As long as one is able to earn money, there is genuine fondness shown by members of the family. When the person outlives his money-earning years and grows old and lives in his decrepit frame, nobody makes any enquiries about him at home.


2. Kannada proverb:

haṇā andre heṇānū bāyi biḍatte

If someone starts talking about money, even a dead body opens his mouth!

So an internet search tells that the lyrics is written by Udumalai Narayana Kavi.

sachi,
The same proverb in tamizh: paNamenRAl piNamum vAyait tiRakkum!

Vignesh,G,
Thanks for finding the source. They wrote such good verses for movies, the old time lyricists--both in the south and for hindi films. kEdAragowLa would suit the content of this virutham, it seems to me...
