Funny Songs

[Michi]

As there isn't a tread about funny songs, I figured why not starting one:

Because the ESC (European Song Contest) isn't hosted this year because of - you know what - a German Producer (RaabTV) decided to make a mini web version of it with all the initial contestants.

Last week, the first 20 songs where presented and at first I was doubtful if there would be anything worthwhile to listen to because the quality of the presentations have gone downhill over the last years.

One group from Island however made a hilarious performance:
VFZNvj-HfBU

Another worthwhile mention is from Russia:

Do you have any funny music (even if only lyrics) that have sticked with you?

John Cooper Clarke - Beasley Steet
Brilliantly funny
XZymVWuMKVk

Far from crazy pavements
The taste of silver spoons
A clinical arrangement
On a dirty afternoon
Where the fecal germs of Mr Freud
Are rendered obsolete
The legal term is "null and void"
In the case of Beasley Street

In the cheap seats where murder breeds
Somebody is out of breath
Sleep is a luxury they don't need
A sneak preview of death
Belladonna is your flower
Manslaughter your meat
Spend a year in a couple of hours
On the edge of Beasley Street

Where the action isn't
That's where it is
State your position Vacancies exist
In an X-certificate exercise
Ex-servicemen excrete
Keith Joseph smiles and a baby dies
In a box on Beasley Street

From the boarding-houses and the bedsits
Full of accidents and fleas
Somebody gets it
Where the missing persons freeze
Wearing dead men's overcoats
You can't see their feet
A riff joint shuts, opens up
Right down on Beasley Street

Cars collide, colours clash
Disaster-movie stuff
For a man with a Fu Manchu moustache
Revenge is not enough
There's a dead canary on a swivel seat
There's a rainbow in the road
Meanwhile on Beasley Street
Silence is the code

Hot beneath the collar
An inspector calls
Where the perishing stink of squalor
Impregnates the walls
The rats have all got rickets
They spit through broken teeth
The name of the game is not cricket
Caught out on Beasley Street

The hipster and his hired hat
Drive a borrowed car
Yellow socks and a pink cravat
Nothing, la-dee-dah
OAP, mother-to-be
Watch the three-piece suite
When sh*t-stoppered drains
And crocodile skis
Are seen on Beasley Street

The kingdom of the blind
A one-eyed man is king
Beauty problems are redefined
The doorbells do not ring
A lightbulb bursts like a blister
The only form of heat
Here a fellow sells his sister
Down the river on Beasley Street

The boys are on the wagon
The girls are on the shelf
Their common problem is
That they're not someone else
The dirt blows out
The dust blows in
You can't keep it neat
It's a fully furnished dustbin
Sixteen Beasley Street

Vince the ageing savage
Betrays no kind of life
But the smell of yesterday's cabbage
And the ghost of last year's wife
Through a constant haze
Of deodorant sprays
He says retreat
Alsations dog the dirty days
Down the middle of Beasley Street

People turn to poison
Quick as lager turns to piss
Sweethearts are physically sick
Every time they kiss
It's a sociologist's paradise
Each day repeats
On easy, cheesy, greasy, queasy Beastly Beasley Street

Eyes dead as vicious fish
Look around for laughs
If I could have just one wish
I would be a photograph
On a permanent Monday morning
Get lost or fall asleep
When the yellow cats are yawning
Around the back of Beasley Street

He's a talented young man. Bohemian Gravity is fun too, as is his Billy Joelesque 'Entropic Time'.

Robin Williamson - Zoo Blues


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3jqDHcNQ66A&list=PLwn6Hs1ZcuZkpM4glKiEkb5vxToxxMmrh&index=4

[Robin Williamson, Sylvia Woods, Christopher Caswell, Jerry McMillan]

I asped the elephant in the elevator
Where you had gone, he said you were boozing round with the bees
When I had the bucks my dear, you were so fawn
Now my doe is gone and you're so colt to me
Camels in the zoo singing one hump or two
But I can't bear to see them no cow
I feel the loss a lot, I miss you an ocelot
I wonder who's kitten you now
My llama mama what's gnu with you
With your cat's pyjamas and his cockatoo
I'm hippo what toucan do
You sealed your fate with him

Gorilla my dreams
You're a cheetah is seems
Fly are you lion to me
You otter be sad losing me
(for goodness snakes)

I toad you donkey me waitin', why you hesitatin'
I'll pig you up at ape, iguana bison rings and meat you at your front boar
You mustang gone in his big black carp when he gibbon
You that new mink cape

There's no depenguin on you that's for sure (sheep skate)
You played me for a sucker, at leech they said
I was sow gull-a-bull
Ain't no mousetake you snake I'll make you egret you treated me so cruel
Gonna grab my cat, gonna grab my goat
Gonna ram you worms right down your throat
I kangaroo in this sad stoat, you sealed your fate with him

[Open Minded Dude]

This is a song about the perceived merits of 'well endowed' women (from a mainly male (Bavarian?) perspective).

(And yes ... Dicke Titten = Big Tits). :girl_wink: :love:

Rammstein - Big Boobs

I live alone for many years already
Life is dull, every day is grey
I lose patience, sanity, and hair
I would like to have a woman

And I'm losing hope
To find a female partner
Who is the perfect match for me
No, there is no luck in sight

She doesn't have to be beautiful
She doesn't have to be smart
No
She doesn't have to be rich
No model with long strides -
But big tits!

Like an always open wound
Blood drips out of the soul
The only consolation is small dogs
A fine little lady would be good

A fine little lady would be great
I'm not demanding at all
I'm not picky at all
When it comes down to it

She doesn’t have to be beautiful
She doesn't have to be smart
No
She doesn't have to be rich
But I would like to ask for one thing:
Big tits!

I'm not demanding at all
But big breasts would be great

She doesn't have to be beautiful
She doesn't have to be smart
She just has to be rich
On fat tissue please, please
She won't miss anything with me
She doesn't even need to kiss me
She doesn’t need to feed me with grapes
She just has to have gigantic tits

Big tits!

Knorkator call themselves "the most band of the world". This musical masterpiece (Menschenfleisch = Human Flesh) proves them right.
