What's the funniest song you ever heard?


This isn't misunderstood lyrics, but the actual lyrics that were funny. There have been artists who made a living writing humorous stuff like Spike Jones, or Ray Stevens to name a few, but the funniest song I have ever heard might have been "Pretty Smart on My Part" by Phil Ochs.

What's tickled your funnybone?

Tom Lehrer's "That was the week that was" album - every song is a hoot, though my particular favourites are "New Math", "The Vatican Rag", and "Pollution". Also, try to check out the "Stairways To Heaven" album. Eleven different versions of "Stairway To Heaven", my favouite is the Australian country version.

"Didn't You Kill My Brother" by Alexei Sale is also pretty funny in a twisted sort of way, as is "Cousin Dupree" by Steely Dan.
