I was reluctant to mention this one: Margie Day's "Take out you false teeth, baby." Suggestive but I have no idea as to what.

Notes,

I'm guessing you asked this question because you are thinking about adding some humorous songs along these lines to your set list. Or maybe you've already done so. I'm curious to hear your thoughts on what audiences tend to receive this sort of song favorably. I'd guess you play to some high brow audiences as well as some laid back audiences, and each audience responds in its own way.

I've often thought of putting together a show made up entirely of funny songs, and taking it to the most laid-back audiences (like camp grounds, parks, class reunions etc)

anyway.... you thoughts?

If anybody else has anything to offer on the topic, please weigh in as well

Dr. Demento had a syndicated radio show that only featured novelty songs. "Weird" Al Yankovic received his start on the radio show. +++ Spike Jones +++ was a famous band leader that made a living creating novelty songs. Ray Stevens made many comical songs

In other words, I think you have a great idea Pat. Lots of material to choose from.

It was mainly for my own amusement. I do horse around with my 11 years and running Little Jim's Marina audience, and we do some funny material there so one or more of the ficticious titles might make it between songs as a joke.

In fact that's what started this. We do a couple of instrumentals, and I decided to play Herbie Mann's "Coming Home Baby" on the wind synth to demonstrate the many voices of the instrument to a couple of people who were very curious about it. I was in a goofy mood and I said: "If you never heard this song before it's one I wrote called, 'She Used To Kiss Me On The Lips But It's All Over Now', but if you have heard it before it is called 'Coming Home Baby' and it's by Herbie Mann." It got a decent laugh.

So I just posted it to hear some other faux titles that might be fun. However, the real titles did give me something to consider to add to the fun songs.

I loved Spike Jones. My father was a big fan and I'm not only amused by the silliness of the band, but the fine level of musicianship.

And I remember the Dr. Demento show too. It was fun.
