What's the funniest song you've ever heard?

I rather like “Da Turdy Point Buck” by Bananas at Large. It’s more of talking than a song, but it’s this drunk guy telling the story of the time he almost shot a 30-point-buck to a bunch of his other drunk friends.

“I couldn’t get to my grenades, the Howitzer was in the shop, my stomach was tied into a monkey knot. My only hope was Betty Lou, she was the one! A Combination AK57 Uzi Radar-Lazer Triple Barrel Double-Scoped Heat-Seeking Shotgun! BBBUURRRPP

deb2world, Good one! “Dead Skunk” is hilarious!
“Boogie” - John Hartford!!!

“Hey Babe, ya wanna boogie? Boogie-woogie-woogie with me.
Hey Babe, ya wanna boogie? Boogie-woogie-woogie with me.
We can do it in the living room,
Do it in the den.
C’mon, baby, Let’s do it all again!”

(includes fart sounds, made with John’s mouth…)

Thanks, I have tried to find that song many times. I haven’t heard it in thirty years.

I’ll second Big Balls.

Welcome To India by MC Vikram and LudaKrishna. Sends me into a cramp-filled laughter-fit every time I hear it. Although it’s in English, it helps either being an Indian or having been to India to understand the some of the humour.

There use to be a guy working around Iowa City and Cedar Falls called Robert “One Man” Johnson. Here is his website. He had one piece he called The Vasectomy Song. It does not show up on the website but I can almost remember one line:

“Just like a navel orange, it’s all juice and there ain’t no seed.”

The first time I heard it I was in my office in about 1976. I laughed so hard that when the tears stopped running there were three secretaries, two senior partners and a paralegal standing in the door trying to find out if if there was something wrong they could do something about or if I had simply gone insane.

And I just thought of…

“Big Ten Inch Record” by Aerosmith
“Wang, Dang, Sweet Poontang” by “Turn It Up” Ted

I will never tire of (and I don’t know the EXACT title, but I’m sure you’ll know what I mean)

Dennis Leary’s * Asshole Song *

“Just shut up and sing the song, pal.”

I have a tie for first place. I don’t know the artist of either, though.

  1. “The Man Song.” Has great lines like, “I don’t take no crap from anyone…else but you” and “I wear the pants around here…when I’m finished with your laundry.”

  2. “How’s Your (W)hole…family?” Very, very funny.
    How’s your hole…family?
    Suck on a stiff cock…tail with me.
    Won’t you do my ass…trological chart.
    How’s your dick…tation machine?
    etc.
    Well, you’ve got to hear it to get the full effect.

And I’ve always wondered, in “Big Balls,” why they sing, “She’s got big balls.” Is she not a she, or what? :slight_smile:

Seconding Tenacious D, with Kyle took a bullet for me, if only for the line “Your decision to rescue me was defintely Boots Mcgee”. It doesn’t make much sense out or in context, but it’s more the way it’s sung that makes it funny.

Complete lyrics:

I’m sorry for the pop-ups, the first 5 or 6 links on the first search were dead. :rolleyes:

nineiron, I think you need to look at the big picture. :slight_smile: They sing: "She’s got big balls, and he’s got big balls, but we’ve got the biggest…balls of them all! It’s not any kind of double-entendre (altho the WHOLE song is a double-entendre!)

How about some of the South Park songs?

Uncle Fucker
Kyle’s Mom is a Bitch (from the movie, with the international verse)
What Would Brian Boitano Do?

and particularly their Christmas songs…

Merry Fucking Christmas (sung by Mr. Garrison)
Oh Holy Night (by Cartman)
A Lonely Jew on Christmas (by Kyle)
Carol of the Bells (sung by Mr. Mackey: All the bells say, “Ding Dong M’kay”)
and of course The Most Offensive Song Ever (by Mr. Hankey and Kenny)

I really can’t pick just one. Some of my favorites have been mentioned. Here are some others.

“Madeira, M’dear”, “Ill Wind”, “The Gnu Song” - Flanders and Swann
“The Pretty Little Dolly” - Jim Fisk
“'Cause I’m a Blonde” - Julie Brown
“The Borgias Are Having An Orgy” - John Murray Anderson

One more -

“Lizzie Borden” - (“New Faces of 1952” version)

Title of the Song, Interent Porn and Irish Drinking Song by DaVinci’s Notebook

Toast by Heywood Banks

Another vote for The Man Song by Sean Morey

Almost anything by Weird Al

And Life’s Been Good to Me So Far by Joe Walsh. It’s never made me laugh, but I find it highly amusing.

The Bricklayer’s Song by The Corries.

Herculano by mexican humorous composer Chava Flores. But you can only catch its comic point if you speak spanish. And if you understand mexican double-sense lyrics.

I was thinking of Madeira M’dear as well. I have a record where it is performed by The Limelighters.

Anything from Forbidden Broadway. Their Les Miz parody (now classic) had me crawling on the floor!

And “Assassin’s Song” from Blondel.

Some of the Alan http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=129695&highlight=alan+sherman songs struck me very funny the first time i heard them. Of course they are less funny with each listening but some of the stuff from my son the nut:

Hello Mudda, Hello Fadda
Louis The 16th
Hail to Thee fat Person
Here’s to the Crabgrass

Were very, very funny the first time I ever heard them.

I would also add George Carlins “Things You Can’t Say” Rant as chokingly funny, not a “song” but on an Album …(You could call me a cheater & I know you would be right)
