VERY old joke and not particularly funny joke that ends with a musical pun. [spoiler] Rudolph Ivanovich, a high Communist official in the Kremlin, woke up one morning, looked out the window, and said, “Ugh, looks like rain.” His wife looked out and said, “Not at all- it’s going to be a fine, sunny day.” He insisted, “No, I see clouds on the horizon- it’s definitely going to rain.” She asked, “What makes you so sure?” He answered, [/spoiler] “Rudolph the Red knows rain, Dear.” ---

Ferdinand Feghoot was visiting a planet of intelligent pearls. One of their greatest legal scholars, Michael Erster, attempted suicide by leaping into the acidic seas, upset that instead of having a smooth surface, he had sand embedded in it, a relic of his shameful past. Feghoot walked into the murky seas barefoot and quickly found the distraught creature, bringing him back to safety. When asked how he managed, Feghoot told them the way to keep him on task was to keep singing, “A gritty pearl is Michael, L.L.D.” (My favorite feghoot. Even better than the furry with the syringe on top) ---

An old chestnut: Roy Rogers had a brand new pair of shoes, and went to show them to Dale Evans. Being polite, he removed his shoes and leaves them at the door. While visiting, Dale’s cat discovers Roys new shoes, likes the smell and proceeds to chew them up. Roy goes ballistic. Dale, feeling very bad, has a dilemma: she has two cats. One of the cats enters the room at that moment. Dale turns to him and asks: “Pardon me, Roy, is that the cat that chewed your new shoes?” ---

A guy is climbing to the top of Mount Everest. He has two steps to go when one of them notices the heel on his right show is a little loose, yet he decides to continue. At the next step, the heel comes up and the guy goes tumbling down the mountain. As he goes by, he passes a couple of climbers. First climber: Think we should help him? Second climber: No, as he was going dowing I heard him singing “You picked a fine time to leave me, loose heel.” [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/puns-on-song-titles/674521.md?page=2)
