Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: GUEST,Oliver Dashwood Date: 29 Aug 10 - 09:10 PM re mousethief and "Hitler he had a big ball" I have heard, but not as a recording, just as a group of "naughty boys" singing to the march Colonel Bogey. Hitler he only had one ball Goering had two but very small Himmler was somewhat simla and poor old Goebbels had no balls at all |

Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: GUEST,Oliver Dashwood Date: 29 Aug 10 - 09:25 PM From "Free as Air" Holiday Island Well here we are on Tehru, so called because when the Romans landed they said it was too good to be T---Rue. Ha! Ha!, bon my latin! Oh gosh it will be fun to be blistered by the sun there's a sunshine competition simply waiting to be won breakfast is at six, its compulsory to mix and remember we are jolly, a jolly bunch of sticks! We'll be hikin', we'll be bikin', no matter what the weather and everything we will do, we will do together! Don't give in to early gents and answer me this simple question are we happy? No! No! No! On a happy holiday island we would all be very unhappy every chance of joy would be gone we would wakey wakey wakey with the dawn! Just imagine it, just imagine it Think of all the tourists and the trippers just imagine it just imagine it think of all the oranges and kippers! (from memory of the 1950's LP of Free as air, which I last heard 50 years ago when I was 13.) |

Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: MGM·Lion Date: 30 Aug 10 - 12:54 AM I have always suspected that "The Boom-boom-boom, aka "The Thing" derived from the Suffolk song "The Farm Servant" that Bert Lloyd used to sing, where the narrator's organ was euphemised as three stamps or knocks on a table-top. Stanza 1 went When I was a farm servant I liked a bit of fun So I minded the master's business as servants have always done; And whenever the master went away and left me alone with the farm I'd be round the backdoor with me {knock knock knock} And never a thought of harm, I hadn't, No, never a thought of harm. He goes on to seduce the mistress, who assures him, ...Your master no more for me For he can't manage that {knock knock knock} not half so well as thee ... and so forth. Anyone agree this as a possible source for "The Boom-boom-boom, or "The Thing"? ~Michael~ |

Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: GUEST,Oliver Dashwood Date: 30 Aug 10 - 08:42 AM Then of course there is Gilbert and Sullivan, though from the 1880's, various songs from Iolanthe and the Mikado can be made topical, and indeed have been made so. For example "I've Got a Little List" 1950's would include something like ".. the Elvis impressionist, I've got HIM on the list!", just as the addition of a prohibitionist placed it in the 1930's |

Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: Cool Beans Date: 30 Aug 10 - 10:13 AM Other threads on Mudcat have traced the origins of "The Thing" to the comical "The Chandler's Wife," about the joys of illicit you-know-what (and which has the boom-boom-boom's in the right spots), and "The Chandler's Wife" to the earlier "The Lincolnshire Poacher," which is about the joys of illegal hunting. |

Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: Allen in Oz Date: 28 Oct 10 - 08:46 AM JR Would "On Top of Spaghetti" (all covered with cheese) get a gurnsey in this thread? AD |
|
Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: Cool Beans Date: 28 Oct 10 - 09:44 AM Bobbo, thanks for the shout out. Allen, "On Top of Spaghetti" would count but I'm pretty sure it's from the 60s. Singer-songwriter Tom Glazer once told me he was inspired by hearing a bunch of children singing a ditty that began "On Top of Old Khrushchev". |

Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: GUEST,Seth from Olympia Date: 28 Oct 10 - 11:50 PM I recently found a song I've been looking for for about twenty years: The Prayer done by Ray Scott, written by Redd Foxx. A black preacher sends out his wishes for the late Gov. Wallace of Alabama. You can find it on YouTube. Warning!!! do not listen to this while driving as you may start laughing so hard you get into a wreck. I found it by entering the phrase "If that's not bad enough for the governor" |

Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: GUEST,Pei Xibo Date: 26 Nov 10 - 11:57 PM Does anyone remember a novelty tune from the early/mid 50s called "Wild Bill Hiccup"? Part of the words are:
Who's a-knockin' at my door? |

Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: LadyJean Date: 27 Nov 10 - 01:45 AM My last year at O.U. I lived across the hall from two girls from Hong Kong, who had a number of records of American songs recorded in the language of their homeland. You really haven't heard "Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini" until you've heard it in Chinese. |

Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: GUEST,steve geng Date: 29 Jan 11 - 05:16 PM Grew up in Philly in the forties and early fifties. "Stranded in the Jungle" was considered novelty, as well as certain Bo Diddley ("Bo Meets the Monster") and Screamin' Jay Hawkins tunes. Lots of novelty tunes about cars that I can't remember, like (I think) the Coasters "No Money Down"--"I want two-dollar deductible, TV and a phone, so I can talk to my baby when I'm cruisin' all alone" (paraphrase) |
|
Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: Taconicus Date: 29 Jan 11 - 08:06 PM "Counting Flowers on the Wall" (YouTube) (I think that one was from the 60s). The mythology of the time (and it may have been true), was that it was banned from radio back then because it was considered offensive to the mentally ill. |
|
Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: Taconicus Date: 29 Jan 11 - 09:28 PM Whoops - memory lapse. It was "They’re Coming To Take Me Away, Ha-Haaa!" that was banned from radio as offensive to the mentally ill. |

Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: GUEST,margie0507 Date: 15 Jun 11 - 11:01 AM I remember this song! My sister had it in her collection. No one remembers it but me. And you. |

Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: reynard Date: 16 Jun 11 - 09:06 AM Swamp Girl. Or is this too "serious" to be classed as a "novelty song"? I'd never heard this until I recently stumbled over it on Spotify so perhaps it was not released in the UK. The link below claims to be the lyrics to the (inferior) Charles Manson cover but is in fact a video of the audio of the brilliant original by Frankie Laine. http://www.uppercutmusic.com/artist_c/charles_manson_lyrics/swamp_girl_lyrics.html |

Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: The other Hank Date: 16 Jun 11 - 12:23 PM Google Dr. Demento. He had a radio show that featured novelty songs. Some of them absolute classics! |

Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: dick greenhaus Date: 19 Jun 11 - 11:20 PM Tom Lehrer's best-remembered songs were from the 50s. As were The Hut-Sut Song and the earliest Chipmunk ones such as "Standing all alone in a vacant lot with a bird sitting on my head" [=Bird on My Head] |
|
Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: Greg B Date: 24 Jan 12 - 02:04 PM Lou Monte had a spate of them in the 50's: "Lazy Mary (Luna Mezza Mare)" among others named here. (Hee-haw hee haw.) |

Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: GUEST,nikinez Date: 27 Jan 12 - 05:48 PM does anybody know the lyrics to the song the barking dog by the crewcuts back in 1954? it was a cute novelty song |

Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: NightWing Date: 28 Jan 12 - 01:48 AM GUEST,J (back in 06 Jul 09) asked My dad used to sing a jingle about brushing your teeth...with words like "you will have a winning smile." Anyone know this?
I remember The Billboard Song:
As I was walking down the street a billboard caught my eye. I don't suppose that's what he was thinking of, but it reminded me of this.
Back in 21 Oct 09, GUEST,tkhering asked:
Is this the song "Worms?" I don't know the details. It is indeed Worms, by Tony Burrello and Tom Murray.
There's a new sound, the newest sound around,For a few others, how about
"Splish Splash"Does anybody remember Wet Dream? Kip Addotta does a talkin' blues loaded with fish puns, then a female chorus comes in with the chorus: simply "Wet Dream". One of the early bits
My Barracuda was in the shop, so I was in a rented Stingray, and it was overheating.has always been one of the funniest lines ever and I've used "For the halibut" ever since I first heard it in this song. (According to the wiki on him, he also did a similar one with vegetable puns? Never heard that one!)
Certainly, Worms and Wet Dream were from the '60's. But The Billboard Song should certainly qualify.

Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: GUEST,guest:oregon Date: 05 Jun 16 - 05:20 AM I heard a recording by an unknown artist that was identical to Chuck Berry's No. 1 hit in 1972 "My Ding-a-Ling". It could have been Chuck Berry but this was in the late 50's. |

Subject: Lyr Add: BIRD ON MY HEAD (David Seville) From: Jim Dixon Date: 04 Aug 16 - 01:24 AM Dick Greenhaus mentioned this song on 20 October 2008. In the following transcription, the "bird's" words are enclosed in parentheses. BIRD ON MY HEAD As recorded by David Seville (whose real name was Ross Bagdasarian Sr.), 1958. I'm just sittin' in a vacant lot with a bird sittin' on my head. I'm just sittin' in a vacant lot with a bird sittin' on my head. Wicked, wicked, cruel, cruel world, what have you done to me? I belong in someone's arms (and I belong in a tree). Wicked, wicked, cruel, cruel world, this is no kind of life. I should have a house and bed (and I should have me a wife). We're just sittin' in a vacant lot and we haven't got a dime. The bird and me, lonely as can be, we're together all the time. Wicked, wicked, cruel, cruel world, what have you done to me? I belong in someone's arms (and I belong in a tree). Wicked, wicked, cruel, cruel world, what I say is no lie. We've been sittin' here so long (that I forgot how to fly). I'm just sittin' in a vacant lot (and I'm sittin' on his head). The things we want we haven't got; (need a tree and house and bed). Wicked, wicked, cruel, cruel world, what have you done to me? (He belongs in someone's arms) and he belongs in a tree. Wicked, wicked, cruel, cruel world, this is no kind of life. (He should have a house and bed) and he should have him a wife. Wicked, wicked, cruel, cruel world, what have you done to me? I belong in someone's arms (and I belong in a tree). FADE. [This was David Seville's second novelty record—the first was "Witch Doctor"; the next was "The Chipmunk Song (Christmas Don't Be Late)"] |

Subject: Lyr Add: I WANT ONE (Jack Reno) From: Jim Dixon Date: 04 Aug 16 - 02:47 PM Arkie mentioned this one on 21-Oct-2008: I WANT ONE As recorded by Jack Reno, 1968. 1. I'll never forget the first time I ever saw one. I knew right then that I just had to have one. And though you say I wouldn't know what to do with one, If it's the last thing I ever do, I'm gonna get one. CHORUS: I want one. I need one. And you would too if you had ever seen one. Oh, I want one. 2. Mama told me my great-grandmother owned one. And I once met a man who claimed that he'd lost one. Wouldn't we make a fortune if we could make one? But woe unto the man who tries to steal one. CHORUS. 3. I know all there is to know about one, And I'm gonna search this whole world over until I find one. People will point at me and say: "He has one" And I'm gonna give all o' my friends a chance to see one. CHORUS |

Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: Senoufou Date: 04 Aug 16 - 06:36 PM In the fifties (and into the sixties) there was a BBC radio programme called 'Uncle Mac's Children's Favourites' presented by Derek McCulloch. It's available nowadays on Amazon.co.uk, and called 'Hello Children Everywhere'. There are over 40 songs, most of which are novelty/comedy/catchy and very typical of the age. If one accesses Amazon, the playlist is set out and all the titles can be seen. Examples are:- The Railroad Runs Through The Middle Of The House (Alma Cogan) The Laughing Policeman (Charles Penrose) "Gilly-Gilly Ossenfeffer Katzenellen Bogen By The Sea." (Max Bygraves) You’re a Pink Toothbrush (Max Bygraves) (my all-time favourite) The Runaway Train When Father Papered The Parlour Little White Duck (Danny Kay) and several by Burl Ives (I Know An Old Lady and Big Rock Candy Mountain for example) I have the cassettes still! |

Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs From: clueless don Date: 05 Aug 16 - 09:05 AM This isn't from the 50s, but I'm remembering the following fragment that I overheard: I knew a man Abramowitz he sold to you ... worn-out shoes! It may not have been anything more than this throwaway line. Don |

Subject: Lyr Add: THE JOKE (Reggie Hall) From: Jim Dixon Date: 06 Aug 16 - 09:56 PM GUEST,N.O. Oldies quoted from this song on 03-Jan-2009. It can be heard on YouTube. THE JOKE As recorded by Reggie Hall, 1962. Here's a story I'm gonna tell, And it's a joke that I know real well: They say that Wyatt Earp rode a horse, But that's not so; he drove a car. They say that big Cheyenne shot up the land, But he really was a real estate man. They say that Rudolph Valentino was a lover, But that's not so; it was his brother; Sayin' Jesse James had a gang, But he really had a ragtime band. They say that ol' Bat Masterson carried a cane, But that's not so; he drove a plane. They say that big Cheyenne shot up the land, But he really was a real estate man. They say that ol' big Paladin have gun will travel, But that's not so; he shoveled gravel; Sayin' Jesse James had a gang, But he really had a ragtime band. They say that Perry Mason won all his cases, But that's not so; he sold shoe laces. They say that big Cheyenne shot up the land, But he really was a real estate man. They say that Robin Hood lived in the forest, But that's not so; he was a lawyer; Sayin' Jesse James had a gang, But he really had a ragtime band. |

Subject: Lyr Add: THERE'S A NEW SOUND (Tony Burrello) From: Jim Dixon Date: 09 Aug 16 - 12:55 AM This has been mentioned a few times in this thread, but with the wrong title. This song can be heard on Spotify and YouTube. It consists of only this one verse, repeated several times, sung in a near monotone, but modulated upwards each time, interspersed by Chipmunk-like vocal sounds, representing, I suppose, the sound of worms.
THERE'S A NEW SOUND
There's a new sound, the newest sound around, |

Subject: Lyr Add: BIG TEN INCH RECORD (Bull Moose Jackson) From: Jim Dixon Date: 20 Aug 16 - 01:13 AM This was mentioned by Cluin on 20 Oct 2008: BIG TEN INCH RECORD As recorded by Bull Moose Jackson, 1952. 1. Got me the strangest woman. Believe me, this chick's no cinch, But I really get her goin' When I take out my big ten-inch— CHORUS: Record of the band that plays the blues, The band that plays the blues. She just loves my big ten-inch Record of her fav'rite blues. 2. Last night I tried to tease her. I gave her a little pinch, But she said: "Now stop that jivin', And get out that big ten-inch—CHORUS 3. I cover her with kisses When we're in a lovers' clinch, And when she gets all excited, She begs for my big ten-inch—CHORUS 4. My gal don't go for smokin', And liquor just makes her flinch. Seems she just goes for nothin' Except my big ten-inch—CHORUS |

Subject: Lyr Add: LITTLE RED MONKEY (Mel Blanc) From: Jim Dixon Date: 20 Aug 16 - 08:07 AM This was first mentioned by Little Robyn on 20-Oct-2008. This was the only vocal version I found on Spotify, although there are several instrumental versions: LITTLE RED MONKEY As recorded by Mel Blanc, 1953. Look at the monkey, funny monkey, Little red monkey, acting so fidgety. Look at the monkey, funny monkey, Little red monkey, cute as can be. Where is his mama, papa, sister, Brother, cousin, rest of the family? Little red monkey, on his ownsome, Very lonesome monkey is he. Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah! If you get him into a zoo, He'll do all of his tricks for you. Won't you drop him a line or two, Inviting him to the zoo, For if you do, He'll be a happy snappy monkey, Little red monkey acting so merrily. I hope you like this little red monkey. He's so funny, cute as can be. [REPEAT, SUBSTITUTING FOR LAST LINE:] For that funny money is me, Little red monkey, little red monkey, nobody else but me! |

Subject: Lyr Add: LITTLE RED RENTED ROWBOAT (Joe Dowell) From: Jim Dixon Date: 22 Aug 16 - 05:15 PM First mentioned by SINSULL on 20-Oct-2008 above: LITTLE RED RENTED ROWBOAT Written by Marvin J. Moore & Bernie Wayne. As recorded by Joe Dowell, 1962. CHORUS: Little red rented rowboat, Little red rented rowboat, Not much better than no boat, But at least it'll go when I row, row, row, At least it'll go when I row. I saw two pretty girls sunbathin' on a pier. They wore bikinis way down to here. I waved; they waved. They said they'd like a ride, So I helped them climb inside. To share my—CHORUS 'Long came a sailboat big enough for two. The skipper saw the girls; I knew what he would do. He waved, and they waved. Then he helped them* inside. Just one girl to ride— There in my—CHORUS Hot rod motorboat roared up behind. A girl took a look and I could read her mind. She waved, and he waved. He helped her climb inside, Leavin' me with wounded pride. One hour later I saw them again, Motorboat out o' gas, sailboat out o' wind. The girls waved and I waved, And then I passed them by, With my nose held way up high. Me and my—CHORUS [* He clearly sings "them" but it should be "one"; otherwise, the math doesn't add up.] |

Subject: Lyr Add: I AM A MOLE AND I LIVE IN A HOLE From: Jim Dixon Date: 22 Aug 16 - 07:31 PM This was mentioned by From: John MacKenzie on 21 Oct 2008. There are several copies of this recording on YouTube: I AM A MOLE AND I LIVE IN A HOLE As recorded by the Southlanders, 1958. I'm not a bat or a rat or a cat. I'm not gnu or a kangaroo. I'm not a goose or a moose on the loose. I am a mole and I live in a hole. I'm not a cow or a chow or a sow. I'm not a snake or a hake or a drake. I'm not a flea or a wee chimpanzee. I am a mole and I live in a hole. Yarg, yarg! Quark, quark! Fried, boiled, or roast, You're the slick chick I dig the most. I'm not a ram or a clam or a lamb. I'm not a hog or a frog or a dog. I'm not a bus or a hippopotamus. I am a mole and I live in a hole. |

Subject: Lyr Add: NEVER DO A TANGO WITH AN ESKIMO (A Cogan) From: Jim Dixon Date: 23 Aug 16 - 12:57 AM This was quoted by MikeofNorthumbria on 23 Oct 2008. I found it on Spotify. NEVER DO A TANGO WITH AN ESKIMO Written by Tommie Connor. As recorded by Alma Cogan, 1955. You must never do a tango with an Eskimo. No, no, no! Oh, dear, no! When a lady from Nebraska's At a party in Alaska, She must never do a tango with an Eskimo. You can do it with a Latin From Manila to Manhattan. You can do it with a gaucho in Brazil, But if once those Eskimoses Start to wiggle with their toeses, You can bet your life you're gonna get a chill. You can never do a tango with an Eskimo. No, no, no! Oh, dear, no! If you do you'll get the breeze up And you'll end up with a freeze up. You must never do a tango with an Eskimo. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no! You must never do a tango with an Eskimo. No, no, no! Oh, dear, no! When a lady from Nebraska's At a party in Alaska, She must never do a tango with an Eskimo. You can do it with a sailor From Peru to Venezuela. You can do it with Apaches in Paree, But if once an Eskimozee Starts to cuddle up so cozy, You'll find your passion cooling, yessiree. You can never do a tango with an Eskimo, No, no, no! Oh, dear, no! If you do you'll get the breeze up, And you'll end up with a freeze up. You must never do a tango with an Eskimo. No, no, no, oh no, no, no! Never do a tango with an Eskimo. No, no, no! |

Subject: Lyr Add: I COME HERE TO BE WENT WITH BUT I AIN'T… From: Jim Dixon Date: 24 Aug 16 - 01:41 AM Mentioned by Arkie on 24-Oct-2008: I COME HERE TO BE WENT WITH BUT I AIN'T BEEN YET Words by Delmar Smith Porter & Donnell Clyde Cooley; music by Carl Hoefle. As recorded by Ginny Jackson with Spade Cooley, 1950. I come here to be went with, but I ain't been yet. I come here to be kissed with, but I ain't been yet. He promised he would meet me in the middle of the block. We made a date for half past eight and now it's twelve o'clock. I come here to be went with, but I ain't been yet. I come here to be hugged with, but I ain't been yet. But I'll keep on right on waiting; gee, I hope he don't forget. I come here to be went with, but I ain't been yet. I come here to be went with, but I ain't been yet. I come here to be smooched with, but I ain't been yet. That boy had better hurry if he plans on thrilling me, 'Cause I've been waiting here so long my feet are killing me. I come here to be went with, but I ain't been yet. I come here to be squeezed with, but I ain't been yet. I miss the kissin' that I'm missin' cause I'm all upset. I come here to be went with, but I ain't been yet. Ho hum! I guess I'll go back home. |
