The FuMP

The narrator of this song can't help telling dad jokes. But she's not a dad. Parody of Golden by Huntrix

This song is a love letter to Jim Hopper: small-town police chief, full-time dad, part-time monster decapitator, and walking OSHA violation in a Hawaiian shirt. It's got synths, keytar, mustache energy, and the unshakable belief that abs are optional if you punch Russians and glare at Demogorgons hard enough. Turn it up, eat your vitamins, and here's a public service announcement for you - don't mess with Jim.

I don't know about you, but the power of Taco Bell hits me sometimes after I enjoy items from their bountious (but still recovering from the deep item slashing of 2020) menu. That made me think, who needs a laxative when Taco Bell's a much tastier solution! So had to write a song about it. And since I wanted to try a lot of different styles for the debut album, I thought a foray into mariachi was perfect for this one (no latin/mariachi catagory in the drop down so picked pop!) I know there are several other funny songs about the Bell, but don't miss this hot fresh one! Video for this song.

You know the drill: It's time to sober up, hit the gym, pick up an actual book, and become your best self. At least until next weekend. Resolution 9: M. Spaff Sumsion: Lyrics Robert Lund: Vocals, instruments, production, what have you "My Favorite Things" is by Rodgers and Hammerstein. To our fan: Yes, this is an updated version of a song from Elves Gone Wild!

The Suffolk and Goode Players take on the Gig Economy in this parody of "Scarborough Fair/Canticle," an old English folk tune arranged by Martin Carthy and Paul Simon, who also added some lyrics and recorded it with Art Garfunkel. Our version had lyrics by Dale Leopold, Chris Mezzolesta arranged it and played acoustic guitar, bass guitar and virtual harpsichord and bells, and sung by Chris, Lori Furth and Karyn O'Bryant. Like the SandG version, there's a "Canticle" counter-melody that takes aim at the greed and callousness of those at the top. Enjoy!

Giant humanoid robots fighting battles in space! They're one of the coolest things imaginable, but they're also financially impractical and physically improbable, and the guy in charge of them inevitably ends up being some kind of corrupt, child-abusing weirdo. So why do we keep building them? Because they're one of the coolest things imaginable! Join our beleagured general as he attempts to justify his indefensible purchasing and staffing decisions

Every year or so, someone with inside knowledge announces a date upon which the world will definitely end. So everyone hunkers down, and then the only thing that happens is every radio station plays R.E.M.'s "It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine)." The apocalyptic event you actually can bank on is an annual occurrence called the Holiday Season. Thus, this. Three Wise Guys: M.

If you're familiar with a certain very-not-politically-correct song* of Frank Zappa's, which concerns the really problematic activities of young women aboard certain tour buses... then you'll recognize this tune. If you're not, well... look it up if you're really in the mood for inappropriate lyrics with crazy-cool production. Music: Frank Zappa Lyrics, guitars, bass, drums, percussion, vocals, arrangement, production: SG Voice of Mary: Kendra Shepherd Harmonica: Chris "Freight Train" Floyd Helpful help: Niamh Bagnell Many thanks to the great Gary Talley for the use of his Sitar-Guitar! * "Crew Slut" is the very-not-politically-correct Zappa song in question

A parody of "Feliz Navidad" by Jose Feliciano. New lyrics by Dave Guhlow.

Jewish holiday music tends to be dark and depressing - fortunately, Hanukkah is a 'minor' holiday, so it fits!

Breaking up on Christmas

Bigfoot's got a sister and she's hot as hell.

At last, a holiday song for vegetarians! Hear what critics are calling "the most overstimulating 2 minutes since your uncle made that concerning toast at Thanksgiving dinner".An outtake from Trevor Goober's upcoming holiday EP, "Traditional Christmas Carols for Normal People".

Recently I asked people for another batch of ridiculous ideas for Christmas songs. I got over 70 suggestions and rather than just choose one I decided to do multiple songs and release an EP. The Ridiculous Christmas EP is now available featuring this and three additional tracks. This song was suggested by Scott Morgan who said "How about a parody of Eminem's Stan, writing to Santa?" My first inclination was to reject it because this is a good idea, not a ridiculous idea, but I kept coming back to it. Then I googled to see if anyone else had already done it and yes, several had, including SNL. So I rejected it again. But I couldn't get it out of my head. Eventually I said screw it and just started writing. I got a few other suggestions for songs that I didn't make into full songs but I did use as individual lines in this song. Those were from Steven Shilling and Roberta Maher and are called out in the lyrics.

A song for the next mayor of NYC and his haters.

"Most people don't know the words to Deck the Halls, so they just go falalalala. I find that disrespectful to Christmas, so I sing all the words. Like this." M. Spaff Sumsion: Concept and falalalyrics Macy Lund: Vocals Robert Lund: Vocals, instruments, production, what have you. "Deck the Halls" has 1862 lyrics by Thomas Oliphant to "Nos Galan," a 16th-century Welsh carol. (He wrote new lyrics to an existing song? Can you even do that?)

When Paula Cole released her breezy country/Americana ballad "Where Have All The Cowboys Gone?" in 1996, she was irritated by the fact her fans missed one key attribute: She'd meant it to be ironic. This tidbit was largely overlooked by her fans, the critics, and even Wikipedia, which notes: "The first two verses explore infatuation and discovery; a bridge expresses disillusionment, and a final verse changes to despair." (Kind of a metaphor for our entire music career, actually.) Of course, that's Wikipedia for you - and looking at the rest of the entry, I'm hard-pressed to find anything else they got right about this song, either. Much like our version. So why the confusion? Maybe, back in the 90s, people didn't know what irony was, until another song came along to explain it: apparently, it's like rai-yeee-ain on your weddingggggg day. Glad we got that cleared up. But here's what I DON'T get. Back in the day - say around the time of Elvis - a whole lotta US states (including California) were actually part of Mexico. (We won them in a poker game.) Today, a lot of American citizens in those states can actually trace their lineage back to that time. So the fact that our government is deporting citizens from states they no longer like anyway, and which used to be Mexico, back to modern-day Mexico, smacks of irony to me. ~ Bob Bad hombres: M.

While Super Mario was my favorite video game franchise growing up, Zelda replaced it pretty quickly once I discovered Twilight Princess and Wind Waker in the late 2000s. Thiis was followed by about a decade of not having a functioning Nintendo system, but when I bought a Switch I mostly played Breath of the Wild and now mostly Tears of the Kingdom. I'd already written a song about older Zelda games years ago, which I was fortunate to have played on the Dr. Demento show, but every once in a while I'd wonder why I'd spent so much time playing the open world games without writing a song about them. And yet nothing came to mind until Pink Pony Club had been one of the most popular songs in the United States (and probably the world) for a while and it spent a good deal of time running through my head, and then I came up with the basic idea of how the inventory (Link's Load of Stuff) in Tears of the Kingdom seemed too heavy for even the strongest of heroes to carry. It took a while from the moment of inspiration until finishing, but it's here now and I hope you like it. As should be apparent, it's not me on the vocals, but someone I've hired before to anonmously provide vocals for parodies I've written.
