Ok, Post a lyric from a parody or humor song. Next poster has to ID the song and artist, then give another. Here’s the 1st one:
“If you’re having trouble with your barnyard friends/ you got a thing for ewes./ Been counting sheep, but you’re not in bed/ Here’s what you gotta do”
I’m looking at YOU Scylla. 
Bob Rivers - “Dirty deeds, done with sheep”. No wonder my colleagues leave my office when I fire up WinAmp.
How about this one:
“If you visit American city,
You will find it very pretty.
Just two things of which you must beware:
Don’t drink the water and don’t breathe the air!”
S. Norman
Tom Lehrer - “Pollution”
One of my favs:
Verdi and Wagner delighted the crowds
With their highly original sound.
The pianos they played are still working,
But they’re both six feet underground.
Screech’s is “Decomposing Composers” by Monty Python.
How about…
“The basketball coach, he done kicked me off the team,
For wearing high heeled sneakers and acting like a queen.”
Astorian : “Earache, My Eye” by Cheech and Chong.
Ahem.
*It’s been one week since we got to see
Cheatin’ lovers and cousins that marry
Five days since they had the show
With the hermaphrodite, the slut and the crack ho
Too easy, plankter. Weird Al’s “Jerry Springer.” I used to use a line from that as my sig.
How about:
So the very next day when I punched in
With my big lunchbox and with help from my friends
I left that day with a lunch box full of gears
One piece at a time - Johnny Cash.
Now **** had a rival, an evil-looking man,
Called Two-Ton Ted from Teddington and he drove the baker’s van.
He tempted her with his treacle tarts and his tasty wholemeal bread,
And when she seen the size of his hot meat pies it very near turned her head.
She nearly swooned at his macaroon and he said, “If you treat me right,
You’ll have hot rolls every morning and crumpets every night.”
He knew once she sampled his layer cake he’d have his wicked way,
And all **** had to offer was a pint of milk a day.
Benny Hill, I think.
Eddie? Ernie? Something like that?
I won’t proceed because I don’t know how right I am. 
Knead, you got it right- “Ernie” by Benny Hill.
We await YOUR selection.

This is a second verse:
While married to Gus she met Gropius
and soon she was swinging with Walter.
Gus died and her terdrops were copius
she cried all the way to the altar.
But he would work late at the Bauhuas
and only came home now and then.
She said “Vat am I running, a chowhouse?
It’s time to change partners again!”
I’m not worthy, astorian … you knew, I was just guessing.
You pick the next one.
Umm, not sure if it’s considered comedy, but I found it funny…
Comfort eagle, by cake…
He is handling the money
He is serving the food
He knows about your party
He is calling you… dude!
…We are building a religion
A limited edition
we are now accepting callers for these pendant keychains
Baker’s is “Alma” by Tom Lehrer.
Try this:
“Now, it’s kind’a hard to find
But it’ll altercate your mind
If you happen to go the right way
You take Slumgullion Pass
And don’t stop for no gas
Until you get yourself to Al’s Café.”
I can’t remember the title of Winterhawk’s, but I think it was done by the “Convoy” guy, C. W. McCall.
Try this one:
Each one was wearing running shoes upon the ghostly deck
And each one had a cotton sweater wrapped around his neck
They all held out their credit cards and tried in vain to buy
But all the stores were shuttered to the _______ __ ___ ___.

That’s pretty funny, but my guess is purely instinctual, and I have no idea who the artist is:
Ghost Writers In the Sky?
I’m not sure if Im entitled, based on the above, but here’s one anyway:
My account is overdrawn;
My car slid down the hill;
I’ve given up, I’ve got no more to give.
My beagle bit the vet,
And my daughter’s on the Pill,
And my ficus plant has lost the will to live.
winterhawk’s is Comin’ Back for More by C.W. McCall (real name Bill Fries).
Try this:
It stunts their mental growth
And makes it hard to find
A future livelihood
Or others of their kind
The marching band it seems
The voyeurs in the stands
The refs and both the teams
Are all the raving fans for

kaylasdad, your instincts are right on the money. The song is called “Ghost Yuppies in the Sky” by Tom Paxton. And it’s hilarious.
Here’s another sample:
*The herd came down Columbus for as far as I could see
All the men were wearing Polo, and the women wore Esprit
Each Yuppie had a Walkman, and as each one passed me by
I saw their sad expressions, and I heard their mournful cry:
“Condos for sale – condos to buy”
for Ghost Yuppies in the sky[\i]
I dunno Robot Arm’s, but kaylasdad’s is Ray Stevens’ I Need Your Help Barry Manilow.
My chant entry:
Credo in at most unum deum
Caveat nabisco mausoleum
Coitus interruptus bonus meum
Kemo sabe watchum what you sayum
Lord have mercy on my soul so low.
