''National Lampoon Songbook'' was an American humorous songbook which was issued in 1976. Although it appears to be a book in its own right, it was a "special issue" of ''National Lampoon'' magazine and as such it was only sold on newsstands. People who had a subscription to the magazine would still have to buy these special issues; they were not included in the subscription. Many of the songs in the songbook were from the musical stage show, ''Lemmings''. A few other songs, including the whole musical "Moby!" were from ''The National Lampoon Radio Hour''. Other songs were from the album ''Goodbye Pop''. There were also some visual print pieces (illustrations and photographs) included. The first piece in the songbook is ''Deteriorata'', which was on the album ''Radio Dinner''. The musical arrangements were by Dan Fox. The songbook was edited by Sean Kelly. The cover illustrations was a drawing showing a number of musicians on stage and a row of the audience. The drawing was a group effort by cartoonists Randall Enos, Gahan Wilson, Bobby London, Jeff Jones, Shary Fleniken and Charles Rodrigues. The songbook was designed by the design studio Pellegrini, Kaestle & Gross, Inc. ==Songs== # ''Deteriorata'', a parody of ''Desiderata'' # ''Lemmings Lament'', a parody of Woodstock (song) # ''Pizza Man'', a parody of 1950s death songs such as ''Leader of the Pack'' # ''Nirvana Banana'', a parody of Donovan # ''Colorado'', A Parody of John Denver # ''Positively Wall Street'', a parody of Bob Dylan # ''Pull the Tregroes'', a parody of Joan Baez # ''Papa was a Running-Dog Lackey of the Bourgeoisie'', a parody of Motown music # ''Highway Toes'', a parody of James Taylor # ''Lonely at the Bottom'', a parody of Joe Cocker and Leon Russell # ''Megadeath'', a parody of heavy metal (music) # ''Overdose Heaven'' # ''Well-Intentioned Blues'', a parody of Pete Seeger # ''Closet Queen'', a parody of a lounge singer # ''The Ballad of K.
