Good call. Similarly:LawrieAbrahams said:Bobby Brown by Frank Zappa
1. Onomatopoeia - Todd Rundgren
2. Emperor of the Highway - Todd Rundgren
3. Frogs - Todd Rundgren
And, see, what I love about Rundgren's novelty songs, whether you like them or not, they're never throwaway. He puts just as much care, attention and effort into these as he does with his more soulful, serious output. In case you're not familiar with Todd, he's the only person on this (unreleased) track. All his own backing vocals, the lot:

There's a lot of good Zappa ones:LawrieAbrahams said:Bobby Brown by Frank Zappa
Penis Dimension
The Groupie Routine
Dumb All Over
The Heavenly Bank Account
Suicide Chump
Dinah-Moe Humm, etc etc.
My favourite comedy xmas song is "Inadmissable" by a band called Bah & The Humbugs (about Santa trying and failing to get through US Border Control). Their song, The Christmas Tree From hell is good too.

Splodgenessabounds did a few, Michael Booth's talking bum, the bicycle seat, socks, Simon Templar, two pints of lager and a packet of crisps. Also one called 'saying goodbye to his horse' which I used to think was in some way linked to the chant but it isn't.0
