Favorite silly song?
I'd have to go with "Why Am I So Short" by Soft Machine, or "Turtles Have Short Legs" by Can.

1. Funky Worm by the Ohio Players
Edited on Thu Feb-24-05 11:39 AM by MrScorpio

Artist: The Ohio Players Lyrics
Song: Funky Worm Lyrics

You're a little late, so step right this way and we'll get
started Granny What? Say it now? Oh. say it now, say it now. Ahem!
Me and the Ohio Players are gonna tell you about a worm
He's the funkiest worm in the world Alright. Sing it, Clarence
Clarence Theres' a worm in the ground, yes there is
Granny Thats right
Clarence he's six feet long
Granny six feet long
Clarence he only comes around
Granny when he wants to get down
But when he comes out of his hole
He sounds something like this

Granny oh that's funky
Like nine cans of shaving powder, that's funky
Alright. Sing it again, Clarence
Clarence and through all the land, yeah
Granny yeah
Clarence he plays in a band
Granny plays in a band
Clarence plays guitar without any hands
Pretty good, I might add
Granny yeah, when he grabs his guitar and starts to pluck
Everybody wants to get up and dance

Granny ah, get it baby
Don't, don't, don't
Don't fight the feeling. Don't fight it
Hey, don't stop now honey, get down
I'm his manager, heh heh
Gonna make a million dollars
I get it all, cause he can't spend it
There he goes
Goin' back in his hole, just the same way he came out
Do we get paid for this?
I just wanted to make sure. We do? OK

3. Great green gobs of greasy, grimey gopher guts,
Mutilated monkey meat,

Little bitty birdie's feet,

Great green gobs of greasy, grimey gopher guts,

And I forgot my spoon!


.....I'll never grow up, I guess.

4. "They Call Me Dr. Worm.....
Good morning. How are you? I'm Dr. Worm
I'm interested in things
I'm not a real doctor
But I am a real worm
I am an actual worm
I live like a worm

I like to play the drums
I think I'm getting good
But I can handle criticism
I'll show you what I know
And you can tell me if you think I'm getting better on the drums
I'll leave the front un-locked 'cause I can't
Hear the doorbell

When I get into it I can't tell if you are
Watching me twirling the stick
When I give the signal, my friend
Rabbi Vole will pay the solo

Some day somebody else besides me will
Call me by my stage name, they will
Call me Dr Worm ...."

5. Theme song from Square Pegs
I have no idea why. I mean i'm a metal head through and through, but that song used to crack me up. I used to watch the beginning of the show just to hear that stupid-ass song.

Square Pegs

square pegs, square pegs
square, square pegs

always never quite right...
i’d like it if they liked us, but I don’t think they like us...
so tell me where’s the party, and how come we weren’t invited?
one size does not fit all.

don’t wanna wear my glasses, I have to wear my glasses...
why are we wearing this year what they were wearing last year?
yeah...i’d be cuter without gum in my braces...
I hope the whole is greater than the sum of it’s parts...

she said that she was
but we know she isn’t
and she said that she would
but he hasn’t asked her.

he did...and we know it
but with whom
we can't guess it...

and they think that we’re the....

square pegs, square pegs
square, square pegs

really funny...who broke the “pi” button on my calculator?
may you be eternally grounded...
me?...get juiced with The Cool Patrol?
uh...no thanks...why do you think they call it beer?
I mean...listen to him!

square pegs, square pegs
square, square pegs

ya know...our school colors should be black and blue...
yeah...i mean no...huh?...what?
no...i don’t think I have a bad attitude...why?
suspended?...suspended for what?
but they told me it was Senior Wig Day!
honest...i don’t even know how those worms got there...
now...what would I do with 200 peanut butter cups?
one size does not fit al
