Mine is: The Wizard of Cupcake Mountain video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POHr...feature=related so, what is yours, and use mine as an example of what I mean

Kid songs are often wonderfully weird. Isn't the song you mentioned about the cupcakes a kid song?

Ok, I checked out tiny pants. I loved the first comment on Youtube "Its like Johnny Cash and a bunch of mice". Actually, it sounds a tad like Elvis.

anothereyjana Forum Resident Join Date: Apr 2009 Posts: 749	For some of mine: Gay Boyfriend Plastic Surgery Slumber Party Malconstruction-this one is more of a fan-based one- it's a song made from audio clips of Red vs. Blue's sixth season, Reconstruction. A Girl Named Tex also from Red vs Blue, but is actually used in the show, not fan-made. and the last one is the incredibly sweet Gay Pirates Also, I wouldn't be surprised if the mods moved this to the media section, since it's about songs. Not snitching or anything, I'm just saying, people might want to start checking there in the future. Heads up and all.

No, it sounds like a kids song, but it just is Parry Gripp (parrygripp.com). all of his songs are like that

Here's another Parry Gripp that is a bit more twisted
Robot Dog is Coming Home

true, but only some of his songs are like that, but robot dog is coming home is one of the best examples of this

EDIT: here is a example of a more nonsensical song by him: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDU0CTDMk2g It is called do you like waffles

Very nice and the video is great too.

Ok, if we're bringing up tv shows and silly songs, how can you beat "They Got the Mustard Out?" and "Parking Ticket" from Buffy The Musical? (I could almost list the entire episode, but some of the songs are sad.)

so, what is yours, and use mine as an example of what I mean

Remember "Fish Heads" by Barnes and Barnes.
That was pretty weird. And it is unforgettable :-)

the music part doesn't start till a little after two minutes into the video.
