As part of my ongoing project to write short, dumb songs...here's this one, mildly based on a true story. Mixing and mastering by TV's Kyle.

You've a tribute album out For an artist with fans devout How does your site entice them all to buy? Obnoxiously! Obnoxiously! Obnoxious...l-y! ...This isn't that song, though, it's this one - the second song this week from "The FuMP Desecrates Tom Lehrer," available even as we speak right here, Vocals, backing vocals, programming, and production by Shoebox Written, of course, by Tom Lehrer

Another track from the FuMP's Tom Lehrer Tribute album ("The FuMP Desecrates Tom Lehrer")!

I'm particularly fond of this song, as I remember hearing it (and the "-LY" song) on the TV show "Zoom" as a kid. Thankfully, hearing those songs on a kids' TV show did not lead me to find the rest of Tom Lehrer's works until much later.

Guitar and vocal: Carla Ulbrich

recording engineer: Carla Ulbrich, with assist from Steve Goodie

with thanks to my hubby Joe Giacoio for letting me play his super nice Chet Atkins Country Gentleman guitar, and to Rolly Brown for the guitar arrangement ideas (arranging the music, not the actual guitar collection display).

Song inspired by the familiar dead Nigerian Prince (or similar) email scam whereby the recipient is chosen to receive wads of money.

A commercial for IKEA, a balladic tribute to suburban life, or a man's descent into sheer madness? The world may never know. Written and performed by Trevor Walls and Harrison Houde.

Okay, everyone's talking about it, so a song was required. Just in time for SuperBowl LVIII, I'm asking the eternal question, "why do football fans hate everything good in the world?" Or something like that.... with a little help from The Clash. Music: Joe Strummer and Mick Jones Lyrics, guitars, bass, drums, piano, harmonica, percussion, vocals, arrangement, production: SG VIDEO BELOW!

Do you love me like Bacon, or will you scrape me off your plate? Everybody loves bacon, but the eternal question is whether your significant other loves bacon more than YOU? This song addresses this long overdue question that has undoubtedly been lurking in everyone's mind since ancient times...

This is a cover of a Tom Lehrer classic, which is still relevent now in the age of climate change. Vocals performed by Carrie Dahlby, piano performed by Robbie Ellis, mixing and mastering by Steve Goodie. This song was featured on the FuMP's very own Tom Lehrer cover album, "The FuMP Desecrates Tom Lehrer". Why not go over to the "store" tab and buy yourself a copy?
