A lot of comic songs are about things which in real life aren't the least bit funny - industrial accidents, unwanted pregnancies, marital infidelity, alcohol abuse. But they're not about the actual misfortunes of real people - they wouldn't be funny if they were. Instead they contain Awful Warnings about what might happen if you're not on your guard. Humour sweetens the bitter pill. |
