I can think of other words to describe it, but funny wouldn't be one of them; sorry!"A Chilling Tale" from "Bam! Mustaphas Play Stereo" by 3 Mustaphas 3
And that's very true.1:19 one of my rules about writing comedy
1:21 theme tunes is that you don't say I'm
1:24 going to write something funny because
1:26 you know there aren't many things in
1:28 music that actually are funny

Music can be funny. The BOING in the last second of Hunters And Collectors by Can still gets me every time, and I used to have it as my Windows boot-up/boot-down sound, so God knows how many times I've heard it.I guess the question here is not whether the music is funny (as music really isn't) but whether the lyrics (and associated music video, if applicable) are funny.
I have to agree with you.Jilted John...gordon is a moron.
Isn't the official title of the song also "Jilted John"?Jilted John...gordon is a moron.
HmmmContinuing with the theme of trains but maybe pushing the definition a bit, I would give an honourable mention to the original Thomas The Tank Engine theme when remixed with The Fresh Prince of Bel Air.

IIRC that was the B-side to "The Chicken Song". I briefly worked with an Afrikaaner years ago, I don't think he'd have seen the funny side as practically every other sentence included some complaint about "k****rs".Spitting Image series 2 had a song called
I have never met a nice South African
A South African I worked with (who has lived in UK for few years) thought it was hilarious as it pokes fun at apartheid era.

The Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band's "The Intro & The Outro" always raises a smile... particularly the "J Arthur Rank... on gong!" line at the end.I was so upset I cried all the way to the chip shop.
I find "Give Booze A Chance" by the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band to be amusing, but I suspect any mickey take of Lennon & Ono these days would be straight over the head of people who were not listening to music in 1970.
And when I came out there was Gordon standing at the bus stop.I was so upset I cried all the way to the chip shop.
