Hardy Boys at the Y is IIRC a Loudon Wainwright III song from his "Unrequited" album.

Oddly enough I checked LWIII's web site and his discography list the song as "The Untitled" with the Hardy Boys title in brackets. The All Music Guide also just lists the track as The Untitled with no sub title.

I'm sure my vinyl copy gives the track title as Hardy Boys at the Y. I wonder if there was a court case and they had to suppress the title.

BTW Loudons own site doesn't appear to have the lyrics.
