That mention of River Phoenix on the PTWND (post that will not die) reminded me of a kickass Australian band I saw on TV last week called TISM. They were performing their song “(He’ll Never Be An) Old Man River”, the chorus of which is “I’m on the drug that killed River Phoenix.” Seriously. Some of their other songs include:
- “Honk if You Love Fred Durst”
- “X-Treme Sports Can Kiss My Arse”
- “I Might Be a C*nt, But I’m Not a F*cking C*nt”
- “All Homeboys Are Dickheads”
- “Defecate on my Face”
I mean, who wouldn’t want to listen to a band like that? Oh, did I mention it’s, like, nine guys all wearing leather hoods to hide their faces? The rumor is that they’re all schoolteachers and they prefer to remain anonymous. What are the best song titles you’ve ever heard? Any that struck you as really, really funny?

i think it was mojo nixon who had a song called “debbie gibson’s pregnant with my two-headed love child”. the clip featured winona ryder in a blond wig with a basketball up her dress. hilarious. i’ve only ever seen it once, but that’s how memorable it was. wish i could see it again!

this doesn’t have anything to do with song titles, but you reminded me to tell you: i saw one of those brown nature-preserve highway signs on the way to milwaukee with the fam this weekend that said “Bong Recreation Area.” got a picture of it.
