For those of your who have never heard of Tom Lehrer
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Lehrer
He is 80 now and was a Math PhD from hardvard who talk Poli Sci at MIT, Math and music at UC Santa Cruz. In the 1960’s NBC ran a show, “that was the week that was” which i guess was the “Daily Show” of it’s time. Part of the show featured Lehrer playing a satirical song he had written for that show. The show was too leftist for NBC and/or viewer and it lasted 1 season(i believe).He’s written some funny songs, some which still work to this day.
I found some videos of him performing these songs, maybe on the show, maybe at another location. I’ll add 1 video per post.
Werner Von Braun – The man who put the US into space.
National Brotherhood Week
Who’s Next – Nuclear Proliferation – a bit dated but still amusing.
World War III song – Better write it before it starts
