Lemon Demon is apparently on the Dr. Demento radio show. :o
http://mypage.iu.edu/~jbmorris/FAQ/drd05.0515.html
This website shows all the playlists of all of Dr. Demento's shows. I'm not sure if it already played today or not, as I usually listen to them off of thedoctordementoshow.com, but this looks exciting.
(For those who do not know, Dr. Demento is the wacky radio host who hosts this radio show with humorous songs from The Great Luke Ski, Worm Quartet, Logan Whitehurst, Tom Lehrer, Monty Python, and too many more to list. Weird Al sent his original tapes to the show when he was a teenager.) Just wanted to let you know.

EDIT: :o I just noticed, Lemon Demon was also on last week, requested by ME... Dr. Demento MENTIONED my name on the radio!!!! You all probably don't care, but this has REALLY made my day.

I'll stop with the smilies.

Doctor Demento is pretty cool. I was given a "Doctor Demento's Greatest Hits" album back in 1992 or so. There was some WEIRD things on that, man. "Guitarzan" was one of my personal favorites.

He's free as the breeze
He's always at ease
He lives in the jungle and hangs by his knees
As he swings through the trees
Without a trapeze
..
that's all I remember

The only thing I remember about Dr. Demento are two songs:
1. Something about "They're coming to take me away, ha ha! To the funny farm!"
and...
2. Fish heads. Fish heads. Rolly polly fish heads. Fish heads. Fish heads, eat them up. Yum. ...and something about you don't see fish heads drinking cappucino with japanese women.

Lemon Demon is perfect for Doctor Demento. Granted, I have only heard one or two songs, but from what I have heard, it's perfect.

Demento made Rolly Polly fish heads? Interesting. Oh, and Funny Farm used to be my favorite song. Drove the other people in the house wild when I was younger. In fact, I think I'm gonna play it right now.

"Remember when you ran away and I got on my knees and begged you not to leave because I'd go berserk..."

I'm not sure if Dr. Demento made either one of those songs, but I do remember hearing them on the show a lot when I was younger.

That'd be Fish Heads by Barnes and Barnes, and They're Coming To Take Me Away, Ha-Haa by Napoleon XIV.

I took a fish head out to see a movie, didn't have to pay to get it in!

Ahem.

Dr. Demento type songs make up most of my MP3 collection, but I've never actually heard his show. Weird.

I used to listen to that show back when I was like 13 or 14....I loved it.
