― martin m. (mushrush), Monday, 22 November 2004 19:30 (twenty-one years ago)

If They Might Be Giants Counts, then so does "Pump Pump Pump a Pump Pump a Pumps Your Blood" by Potsie Webber.

― dave225 (Dave225), Monday, 22 November 2004 19:32 (twenty-one years ago)

"Hips Tits Lips Power" was also a song by Silverfish. Did Pigface cover it or did they make their own song with the same name? It is also the name of a book about Russ Meyer, I'm just wondering who got the title from whom.

― Drew Daniel (Drew Daniel), Monday, 22 November 2004 19:36 (twenty-one years ago)

You're right, Drew, but Lesley sang with Pigface for a bit, so i think they picked it up and made it part of their live repetoire. I never saw her perform with them, but I saw them perform without her, and they sang it, so there ya go.

If They Might Be Giants Counts

Uh, I thought it was songs with body parts in the title or about body parts or whatever... How is it questionable that songs from a particular band count? Like, they have a song called "I am a Human Head." How the hell is there an if on whether or not that counts as a song about a body part?

here's other ween off the top of my head (apologies if I reapeat the few ween ones already mentioned):
"licking the palm for guava"
"LMLYP"
"smoke my brain"
"pink eye (on my leg)"
"papa zit"
"boobs" (if I recall, there are at least 3 songs with this title)
"blow it out your ass"
"mind fuck"
"I can't put my finger on it"
"help me scrape the mucus off my brain"
"mutilated lips"

― martin m. (mushrush), Monday, 22 November 2004 19:41 (twenty-one years ago)

Pedants Corner:-) Said Silverfish song is in fact called "Big Bad Baby Pig Squeal". I'll also nominate "Elvis Leg" by the same.

― Ben Dot (1977), Monday, 22 November 2004 19:47 (twenty-one years ago)

I mean because they're a novelty band that only writes songs about things like body parts.. It was just a poor joke used to invoke Potsie Webber, actually.
