It's the Welsh art of Penillion, the singing of one set of words to the tune of another, and is sufficiently close to a road crash as to have become the point of an entire round in I'm Sorry and its brethren.
Outlandish Knight and I'm Henery The Eighth I am, perhaps?

Thanks, Will. That's exactly the sort of thing I'm looking for.
Fred, at our club it sometimes sounds like that when people are singing the same song!

The 1st World War Classics:

Pack Up Your Troubles In Your Old Kit Bag - and It's A Long Way To Tipperary

Often sung together - with each half of the audience sometimes taking a song each.

Our local folk club once had a lot of floor singers to get on, so I tried to hasten things by singing The Outlandish Knight and La Donna Mobile simultaneously. Just didn't work.

I'm trying to compile a list of pairs of songs which can be sung at the same time (and still sound reasonable!)
Examples:
The Ash Grove and Molly Malone
Swing Low Sweet Chariot and When The Saints Go Marching In.

Any more from the floor?
