Hi folks
Looking for a bit of help.
Trying to find as many clean comedy songs as I can, they need to be clean enough to play on the radio during the day.
Any musical comedians that have songs I could play on the radio please send them too

Hello John got a new motor.
There must be thousands. How far do you want to go back?
Right Said Fred, obviously. Riviera Cayf. Hello My Darlings. You Need Feet.
And very apt for your station, Donald Where's Your Troosers.
Does Tim Minchin do clean ones?
I think Mulligan & O'Hare's songs are generally clean.
Hernie, the Fastest Milkman in the West, Benny Hill

All harmless fun.........

What about American songs? There are even more!! Try:-
Spike Jones and his City Slickers
OR
Stan Freberg
What about the entire works of Flanders and Swan?
And IIRC Mike Harding may have a few (if innuendo is fine).
Billy Connolly - In The Brownies
but if you're getting paid for this then do your own work!

Ummmm, and not much feedback yet either
Joyce Grenfell? Terry Scott? Tommy Cooper?
Yeah I like Terry Scott's funny songs, Cribbens, Benny Hill were all funny with great tunes. Peter Sellers' songs were funny but not so musical.
A favourite of mine from now is the superb John Shuttleworth. You've got to play I Can't Go Back To Savoury Now on your show, it's a classic.

She nearly swooned at his macaroon
I think all of the Flight of the Conchords songs are clean.

(See previous - sung to a lilting waltz rhythm)
"Don't jump off the roof Dad,
You'll make a hole in the yard,
Mother's just planted petunias,
The weeding that she did was hard,
If you must end it all Dad,
Please won't you give us a break,
Just take a walk to the park Dad,
And there you can jump in the lake."
Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha.......thank you very much.........
