These remind me of fake County & Western song titles attributed to Kinky
Friedman, recent candidate for Governor of Texas and founder of the band
Kinky Friedman and His Texas Jewboys. Off the top of my head...
They Ain't Makin' Jews Like Jesus Anymore
Get Your Biscuits in the Oven and Your Buns in the Bed
[the classic--and yes, he is politically incorrect, and these
are SATIRES]
Asshole from El Paso [same tune as "Okie from Muskogee"]
If You Don't Think I Love You, Ask My Wife
How Can a Whiskey Six Years Old Beat Up a Man of Thirty-Two?
Actually a lot of *real* C&W songs have titles just about as awful. No,
even worse. Friedman was having fun with an old tradition.
There are also some wonderful quotes. Friedman seems to be a "cat
person" (he's really not Simone Simon), which makes him instantly
endearing (to me, anyway).
