They key to writing a good comedy song
Is that the first little bit doesn’t sound that wrong
Then theres a slight turn cause man i can’t wait
To get off work cause thats when i masturbate
Then the music stops so you can deliver the punch
Im writing this thing on a faux time crunch
I’m trying to make a point im trying to get paid
I’m making oportunities i’m trying to get laid
End each verse with a little joke
How bout A joke about something funny to smoke
How about a joke about the anal hole
Or about a disabled person reaching their goal
They key to writing a good comedy song
Is that at not one point can you sing along
The words always change its never really catchy
The first version you heard was pirated and scratchy
The id3 tags were not right
I was up editing them all night
When i first download its always a surprise to me
That every funny song is tagged tenacious d
It aint easy being cheesy
And rhyming is really hard
Watch me try to rhyme with hard
The only thing I could come up with was shart
Well dont you know that its just my luck
That you brought home a real hot firetruck
I lined it up and gave it a tuck
Behind the fireplace its a surprise you dumb buck
Well you thought i was going to say fuck
But i didn’t its a fake out and its funny as it is
So is repeating rhymes so ironically
Or not rhyming And going all out meta philosophically
Trying to make it catchty
Wont you give me a shout
Keep coming back to the
Wont you give me a shout
Then i listen back and you dont give me a shout
I open my eyes and the whole theatre’s walked out
They key to writing a good comedy song
Is that at not one point can you sing along
the first little bit doesn’t sound that wrong
So wont you sing along and pass me the bong
