Larry Weaver - The Unhappy Meal. It’s hilarious.
Towards the end of his life, Les Crane, who recorded Desiderata, said he couldn’t listen to it without gagging and much preferred the National Lampoon spoof version.
I like Cows with guns.
He’s got a cd out, A Brief History of Rhyme.

Tim Finnegan’s Wake:
The Toronto Song (‘Ontario Sucks’) is actually by Three Dead Trolls in a Baggie. (Scroll down to the bottom here for a cite from the Worms’ website.)
It is a screamingly funny song, though, which is all the more reason to make sure the credit goes to the right group.
(My favourite song actually by the Arrogant Worms is Rippy the Gator, and as a Newfoundlander, A Night in Dildo is a close second (Both links are YouTube vids) - Carrot Juice is Murder and Last Saskatchewan Pirate are also awesomesauce. (LSP is the only one of the four not on Russell’s Shorts, which is clearly their most perfect album.))

When I was about 9, I cracked up to a parody of countrysong “Ruby, Don’t Take Your Love to Town” titled “Tubby, Please Take Your Love to Town”, with lines like
She’s leaving now, 'cause I just saw
The truck back to the door
With 20 men to load her up
They could have used 3 more
OK, pathetic. I was 9 years old, whaddaya want?

Dont Care by Klark K
Dr. Demento’s “Shaving Cream” was (originally?) done in the 40’s by a guy named Benny Bell. Now these are old school funny songs that I remember my parents playing when I was a kid. I think they were on those big black CDs.
Some of his catalog is available here for free download.
Jonathan Coulton.
Funny, yes, but in a very professional way, intelligent as fu*k.

Avalanches- Frontier Psychiatrist; greatest music video EVAR!

Absolutely anything by The (Radio Free)Vestibules! Famous for “Bulbous Bouffant”, but that is only scratching the surface.
You just can’t go wrong with TwistedTunes.com.
