What's the funniest song you ever heard?

This isn't misunderstood lyrics, but the actual lyrics that were funny. There have been artists who made a living writing humorous stuff like Spike Jones, or Ray Stevens to name a few, but the funniest song I have ever heard might have been "Pretty Smart on My Part" by Phil Ochs.

What's tickled your funnybone?

Frank Zappa - "Bobby Brown Goes Down". Actually all of Sheik Yerbouti is hilarious, and I must've listened to that one 100 times...

Ray Stevens and Weird Al have made careers of humorous songs. Ray also can do the more serious song also. Read a bio of Stevens to see just how respected he is in the music business. The guy was classically trained and even played trumpet on several Elvis projects.

Twisted Tunes.com did a cover of Hootie and the Blowfish's "I only wanna be with you" changing it to "I only have a 3inch tool" The lyrics are great and will make anyone laugh. In fact, there is a lot of funny songs there. http://www.twistedtunes.com
Enjoy

"They're coming to take me away" by Napoleon XIV. Funny enough by itself but the flip side on the original 45 rpm release is the same "song" backwards. That's funny.
