In 2005 I started my podcast Manic Mondays as a creative outlet for some of my ideas that didn't work well in hip hop form. This Monday's episode will be episode #1000. I have a few things planned for the episode itself, but I thought I should mark the occasion with a song, so here it is.

lyrics, vocals: Tom Rockwell

music: Jared Ringold, Tom Rockwell

background vocals: Jared Ringold

At one time, the Reflecting Pool in Washington, D.C. was a beautiful shade of blue/gray. Somehow, it changed its color, and green algae seemed to multiply... Yeah, it was pretty "weird," "Weird Algae" to be specific.

Let me explain. One night, my musical pal Carla Ulbrich and I were commenting on Weird Al in a comedy chat, and Wallah! A cute comment on Weird Al that I had written in the chat had an immediate, ever-so-funny response by Carla answering me back with two clever words... "Weird Algae."

My weird brain kicked in, and somehow I started humming a hit song of Cole Porter's called "Anything Goes!" So then I combined the two "Weird Algae Grows" with the hit tune "Anything Goes"

Here goes: "Weird Algae Grows."

If booze could talk, what would it say? I say booze can talk, you just have to listen to it's song. HappyRon listened, and he's here to tell the tale

"All I Wanna Do Is Play Games" is a comedy song for anyone who has ever looked at everything they were supposed to accomplish that day and thought, "Yeah... but I could play a game instead." It's about that eternal battle between responsibility and the much more appealing prospect of just one more level, one more match, or one more turn.

Written by longtime game developer John C. Ardussi, the song is the title track from Perky Pete and The Mechanics' debut album and part of the musical world of the comedy series in development Game Mechanics.

Ok, this is just dumb, And mercifully brief.

Music: Jimmy Page and Robert Plant

Lyrics: Jimmy Page and Robert Plant and Jerry Lewis and SG

Guitar, vocal, arrangement, production: SG

This song is featured on my 40th album, "Emotional Support Hamster" which you should totally buy at www.stevegoodie.com !

It's about Looking In The Mirror

A parody of "Tricky Dicky" by Country Joe McDonald. New lyrics by Dave Guhlow.

Do you hate working for a living as much as we do?

It has been ten whole months since Sulu parodied this song (and fifteen years since we did), so it was time.

What we learned about "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious":

o The writers of a 1949 song called "Supercalafajalistickespeealadojus" sued Disney...and LOST. The court found that variants of the word had been around for decades. So, as it turns out, neither they nor the Sherman Brothers (who wrote the Mary Poppins song and a ton of other classic Disney tunes) originated the term.

o The Julie Andrews and Dick Van Dyke recording was released as a single that made it to the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at #66 the week ending May 15, 1965. The #1 song that week was...

Herman's Hermits' "Mrs. Brown, You've Got a Lovely Daughter"

...which together scans perfectly to "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious."
