Nobody ese seems to have mentioned, but The Stool of Repentance refers to the one time Scots Presbyterian practice of having to repent for ones sins to the elders of the kirk.

Whatever, here's a few titles which have given me a laugh at one time or another.

The Mosquitoes Have Eaten My Girlfriend. Cajun)
The Cat That Kittled in Jamie's Wig.
The Pensioner Who Kissed His Granny.
O'Callaghan's Jig on the Top of Mount Everest.
The Trip to The Jacks.
Your Eyes Make me Want to Drink Tea. (Moroccan)

Not sure whether you'd call it a song or a tune or neither, but as a title I love Pink Floyd's "Several Species Of Small furry Animals Gathered Together In A Caved And Grooving With A Pict".

Also, "If I could Do It All Over Again, I'd Do It All Over You"

Not to mention the Faces' "You Can Make Me Dance, Sing Or Anything (Even Take The Dog For A Walk, Mend A Fuse, Fold Away The Ironing Board Or Any Other Domestic Shortcomings)"

And an old favourite from Gong's "Camembert Electrique" album, "Squeezing sponges Over Policemen's Heads". Love the imagery.

My favorite title is Mose Allison's


Your Mind is on Vacation (and Your Mouth is Working Overtime)

Sitting there yakkin' right in my face
Coming on like you own the place
If silence was golden
You couldn't raise a dime
Cause your mind is on vacation and your mouth is working overtime

You're quoting figures, you're dropping names
You're telling stories, you're playing games
You always laugh when things ain't funny
You try to sound like you don't need money
If talk was criminal, you'd lead a life of crime
Cause your mind is on vacation and your mouth is working overtime

You know that life is short and talk is cheap
Don't make promises that you can't keep
If you don't like the song I'm singing, just grin and bear it
All I can say is if the shoe fits wear it
If you must keep talking please can you make it rhyme
Cause your mind is on vacation and your mouth is working overtime
Cause your mind is on vacation and your mouth is working overtime

...about a month ago, I was sitting in a bar in easthampton, massachusetts watching "open mic" night and thoroughly enjoying a 3 piece bluegrass group.....very good guitarist, competent (and beautiful) mandolin player, and an incredible fiddle player....after a few songs, they announced that this was their first time appearing in public and did not yet have a name....they then invited the audience to suggest one....the name "three chord cowboy" popped into my head, but after thinking about it for a moment, I decided it was too good a phrase to just give away....so I went home that night and wrote the chorus....I wonder what that group wound up calling themselves....

First Shot Missed Him (strumming)

Nice to play strumming, vary the chords with
add9 chords, hammering down and letting up:

C       x32010      F      x33211    G       320003
Cadd9   x32030      Fadd9 x32011    Gadd9   300003
Cadd9* x30010      Fadd9* xx3213    Gadd9* 300203


Strumming something like this gives that "jumping" play:

Cadd9 C                   Cadd9 C Cadd9*
The first shot missed him, a mile away
Fadd9 F                  Fadd9 F Fadd9*
The last shot got him, so they say
Gadd9 G                     Gadd9 G   Gadd9*
   Oh, the last shot got him
Cadd9 C                     Cadd9 C Cadd9*
   Oh, the last shot got him



***

There is also a song called "The Last Shot Got Him" by Cecil Mack and Chris Smith with some other lyrics than the version by John Hurt. "The first shot missed him by a nose, and the next shot tore right through his clothes". Cecil Mack and Chris Smith also tells about the third, forth and fifth shot.

"The beautiful island of somewhere", "James Porteous' Farewell to old Dr Clapperton" and "Slip it in easy" all spring to mind.

I keep trying to remember the band who did an instrumental called Where The Fuck's My Wallet.

This might be boring but I think "The Movie In My Mind" is a great title. And it's a good song too!!!!

Looking through a tune book last night I came across what must be the best title ever; "the stool of repentance". What would the B side be, I wonder? "I should never have eaten it" perhaps ?

What's your favourite?
