I can strongly recommend "The Wee Magic Stane", an account of the stealing of the Stone of Scone(the Scottish coronation stone) from Westminster Abbey, by some scottish students in the 5o's. Insteaad of stealing, perhaps I should say reposession.
    I also particularly like the "Thrashing Machine" recommended earlier by Glok, but I fear that may come into your category of scatological. (Though that word appears to mean "obsessed with excrement" originally, and there is definitely no excrement in the Thrashing Machine. But alas, quite a bit of shagging).
    I am not sure if anyone anyone has suggested "Follow the Plough" yet. That is grand old agricultural song, used to popular among all the old boys in country pubs. I think you could be singing the rest of life at this project, Joe. At one a month, it's going to take a few years to get through the list!
