Speaking of washing machine songs, and parodies, there's also this one, which I wrote (with the able assistance of L.A. songwriter Sarah Lifton) at Camp Harmony.

LAUNDERLAND
      lyrics (c) 1988 Mark Cohen and Sarah Lifton
      tune: Aragon Mill by Si Kahn

      At the north end of town
      Half a block west of Grand
      There's a faded old sign
      And it says "Launderland"

      But there's no steam at all
      Coming out of the vents
      For the washers all broke down
      One just stole my ninety cents

      CHO:
      And my closet is bare
      And my hamper's full again
      Tell me what will I wear
      Rinse and spin, rinse and spin

      Well my Maytag is broke
      It just burped, coughed, and died
      Now I'm scrounging for change
      For a three-ounce box of Tide

      CHO

      There's a row of plastic chairs
      Some are orange, some are green
      There's a puddle on the floor
      Something's wrong with each machine

      One is filled up with suds
      One is fouled up with dirt
      One just stole all my change
      One just ate my last shirt

      CHO
