A notable cover version of this song was recorded and charted by the '90s musical group Lemonheads. This version can be heard in a scene in American Pie 2, featuring two characters similar to those in the original movie; it is also used in Wayne's World 2 in scenes spoofing Wayne's rush to the church. Some small parts from the Simon & Garfunkel version also appear in the movie. The Lemonheads' album It's A Shame About Ray was re-released with the cover of "Mrs. Robinson" included after the single's chart success.
