Songs about singing circles.

I'm looking for songs about singing circles etc. What I have in mind is a tongue in cheek song that drags in all the usual topics like: Napoleon, broken tokens, women dressing as sailors/soldiers, down the mine, highwaymen, crossing the briney ocean, transportation, lost love, wounded huzzars etc, etc. You get the picture?
I know there are a few out there but I cant find them in the DT.

And this is a good one, with an easy chorus:

"Come From The Heart"

Here's one of mine, The Espresso Machine.

It's about a song circle at The Steel City Coffee Shop in Phoenixville Pennsylvania.
