DGD said I must include this as it's a favorite silly song

 

[Gary M]

"Peanut Butter"-The Marathons

 

[BlueStarryHat]

MacArthur Park, both the original by Richard Harris (yes, Dumbledore), and coming back from the dead in disco form by Donna Summer; widely believed to be the worst song of all time:

Someone left the cake out in the rain
And I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, Noooooooooooooo

Edited to add: I see that Topper beat me to it, but since they posted the Donna Summer version I'll let this one remain.

Maybe, but it made a great disco song to dance to.

Jack and Diane - John Cougar Mellencamp

Little ditty about Jack and Diane
Two American kids growin' up in the heartland
Jack, he’s gonna be a football star
Diane debutante backseat of Jackie's car

Suckin' on a chili dog outside the Tastee Freez
Diane's sittin' on Jackie's lap
He's got his hand between her knees
Jackie say, “hey, Diane
Let's run off behind the shady trees
Dribble off those Bobbie Brooks
Let me do what I please.”

Say oh yeah, life goes on
Long after the thrill of livin' is gone
Oh yeah, life goes on
Long after the thrill of livin' is gone
They walk on...

Under the Boardwalk

Oh, when the sun beats down and burns the tar up on the roof
And your shoes get so hot you wish your tired feet were fire proof
Under the boardwalk, down by the sea, yeah
On a blanket with my baby is where I'll be
Out of the sun
(Under the boardwalk) We'll be havin' some fun
(Under the boardwalk) People walking above
(Under the boardwalk) We'll be fallin' in love
(Under the boardwalk) Yeah (boardwalk)

From the park you hear the happy sound of the carousel
You can almost taste the hot dogs and french fries they sell, yes you can
Under the boardwalk, down by the sea, yeah
On a blanket with my baby is where I'll be
Out of the sun
(Under the boardwalk) We'll be havin' some fun
(Under the boardwalk) People walking above

Take Me Out to the Ballgame
Take me out to the crowd
Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jack

Does everyone here know that this song was actually written for a woman to sing? It's her response to her boyfriend asking her where she wants to go for a date.

The Gambler -Kenny Rogers

"So if you don't mind me sayin'
I can see you're out of aces
For a taste of your whiskey
I'll give you some advice"
