Ben Folds Five's, "Army"
The Funny Lyrics:
Cause my peers, they critize me,
And my ex-wives all despise me.
Try to put it all behind me,
But my redneck past is nipping at my heels.
And my ex-wives all despise me.
Try to put it all behind me,
But my redneck past is nipping at my heels.
Why They're funny:

Ben Folds Five's, "Army"
The Funny Lyrics:
Well, I thought about the army,
Dad said 'Son, you're f***ing high.'
And I thought 'Yeah, there's a first for everything.'
So I took my old man's advice,
Three sad semesters.
Dad said 'Son, you're f***ing high.'
And I thought 'Yeah, there's a first for everything.'
So I took my old man's advice,
Three sad semesters.
Why They're funny:
The sarcasm... ouch! lol... and drawing the correlation between his dad's 'advice' and college... priceless!

Ben Folds Five's, "Lullabye"
The Funny Lyrics:
we walked past the tarmac
and boarded the craft
the rain had me chilled to the bones
just the three of us took flight that night,
Uncle Richard, me and James Earl Jones
and boarded the craft

just the three of us took flight that night,
Uncle Richard, me and James Earl Jones
Why They're funny:
hehehe.... as the title indicates, this song is sung like a lullabye. Who takes a flight in the middle of the night with Darth Vader? Much less in a lullabye?
