.... responding to the lex on FT, who sez ALL comedy songs make him scowl (a not-unusual response to enforced jollity)

(and i guess i'm talking "laugh-with" funny rather than "laugh-at" funny)

to kick things off: i think Qb's OOCHIE WALLY is funny ---:0

"Comedy song" (e.g. "Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport") seems rare in modern day popular music, while funny song is quite common, Ashlee's "Outta My Head" being the obvious recent example. And it's on a theme that's a truly serious one for Ashlee (and presumably for a lot of people her age, where social role is still relatively unsettled, and finding one's true voice is still an issue)(not to say it's no issue for writers in their 50s).
