   This reminds me of Allan Sherman’s song about Peyton Place. “They’ve got a faithful husband there, you’ve got to see ‘im, he is the main exhibit in the town museum…”

   Ah, Allan Sherman…
   ‘Hello Mudder, hello, Fadder, here I am at Camp Granada.’
   (Sung to the tune of ‘Dance of the Hours’.)

   That’s obviously not the Cheech and Chong Museum. Dave’s not there.

   I actually thought the words to Allen Sherman songs were the real words when I was a kid.

   Think of the great compositions that would have been possible if Alan Sherman, Roger Miller, and Al Yankovich had been a song-writing team - the mind boggles. Could you really eat it in the middle of a buffalo herd while writing your parents?

   Edit: I have to say, that for me, YouTube’s existence is justified soley by still showing “Eat It” with Weird Al (well, and still showing Andy Devine saying “Pluck your magic twanger, Froggie”)

   I have seen Allen Sherman and Steve Allan get together and ask the audience to say some odd lines that they could make up a song with on the spot. Some dude says, “When you’re out with your honey, and your nose is kinda runny, and your friends may think it is funny…..but it’s snot”. Steve started playing a odd melody on the piano and Allen started singing the words to that song by the melody being played on the piano by Steve!
   Leave those guys alone and you could have fun for hours!!!
