I was looking for a Frank Zappa CD when I came across his “Zappa in New York”. While Zappa has many funny song titles, this one almost made me piss my pants: “I Promise Not to Come in Your Mouth” What is the funniest song title you’ve ever seen? ---

_Regretting what I said to you when you called me at 11:00 on Friday morning to tell me that 1:00 Friday afternoon you were gonna leave your office, go downstairs, hail a cab, to go out to the airport, to catch a plane, to go skiing in the Alps for two weeks. Not that I wanted to go with you; I wasn’t able to leave town, I’m not a very good skier, I couldn’t expect you to pay my way, but after going out with you for three years, I don’t like surprises (A Musical Apology)_ by Christine Lavin ---

_aaaaaarrgg_, that would be The Ataris. How about “Who’s Sucking on Grampa’s Balls Since Grandma Ain’t Home Tonight?” by the Frogs, whose lyrics consisted of the title and nothing else. ---
