what is your favorite Simpson song?

Who made Steve Guttenberg a star?! WE DO ... WE DO ...

No contest, its the Stone Cutters.

Posted by: AJRitz

I'm not sure it counts as a song, 'cause it's really just a little ditty, but I have to vote for:

I am so smart
S-M-R-T
I mean S-M-A-R-T

See My Vest

(Yea, vest, that's it)

Posted by: Skittles

I'd have a hard time choosing between See My Vest or the Canyonero Jingle. They both get stuck in my head on a regular basis. :)

Oh, Streetcar!
8F18 - 1st October 1992

Long before the Superdome
Where the saints of football play
Lived a city that the damned call home
Hear their hellish rondelet...
New Orleans!
Home of pirates, drunks and whores
New Orleans!
Tacky, overpriced souvenir stores
If you want to go to hell, you should take a trip
To the Sodom and Gomorrah of the Mississip'
New Orleans!
Stinking, rotten, vomiting, vile
New Orleans!
Putrid, brackish, maggotty, foul
New Orleans!
Crummy, lousy, rancid and rank
New Orleans!

(to the tune of the flinstones)
Simpsons! Homer Simpson! He's the greatest guy in history!
From the, town of springfield he's about to hit a chestnut tree.

BAM!!!!

D'OH!!!!

Posted by: Skittles

Oh, and I'd also have to include "Who needs the Kwik-E-Mart?" in my list.

"When I met you, you were all such jerks
But now I've come to loooooove your quirks"

An Amendment to Be
3F16 - 17th March 1996

[Little Boy] Hey, who left all this garbage on the steps of Congress?
[Amendment] I'm not garbage
I'm an amendment to be
Yes, an amendment to be
And I'm hoping that they'll ratify me
There's a lot of flag-burners who have got too much freedom
I want to make it legal for policemen to beat 'em
'Cause there's limits to our liberties
At least, I hope and pray that there are
'Cause those liberal freaks go too far
[Little Boy] But why can't we just make a law against flag burning?
[Amendment] Because that law would be unconstitutional
But if we change the constitution -
[Little Boy] - Then we could make all sorts of crazy laws!
[Amendment] Now you're catching on!
[Little Boy] But what if they say you're not good enough to be in the constitution?
[Amendment] Then I'll crush all opposition to me!
And I'll make Ted Kennedy pay
If he fights back, I'll say that he's gay
[Congressman] Good news, amendment! They ratified you!
You're in the US Constitution!
[Amendment] Oh, yeah! Door's open, boys!

I like that one, too. :D

Monorail song.

The Spring in Springfield (The Maison Derriere song)

Homer: You could close down Moe's,
Or the Kwik-E-Mart,
And nobody would care,
But the heart and soul
Of Springfield's in
Our Maison Derriere!

[music starts]

Belle: We're the sauce on your steak,
We're the cheese in your cake,
We put the spring in Springfield.
Dancing Girl 1: We're the lace on the nightgown,
Dancing Girl 2: The point after touchdown,
Belle and Dancing Girls: Yes we put the spring in Springfield.

Belle: We're that little extra spice
That makes existence extra-nice,
A giddy little thrill
At a reasonable price.
Lovejoy: Our only major quarrel's
With your total lack of morals.
Dancing Girl 3: Our skimpy costumes ain't so bad,
Dancing Girl 4: They seem to entertain your dad!

Belle and Dancing Girls: The gin in your martini,
The clams on your linguine,
Yes we keep the
[Belle flicks Bumblebee Man's antenna]
In Springfield!

Wiggum, Krusty & Skinner: We remember our first visit,
Mayor Quimby: The service was exquisite!
Mrs Quimby: Why Joseph, I had no idea!
Mayor Quimby: Come on now, you were working here!
Grampa and Jasper: Without it we'd have had no fun
Since March of 1961!
Bart: To shut it down now would be twisted,
Jimbo, Dolph & Kearney: We just heard this place existed!

Dancing Girls: We're the highlights in your hairdo,
Apu: The extra arms on Vishnu,
Dancing Girls: So don't take the
[Barney opens a jack-in-the-box]
Mob: We won't take the
[Sideshow Mel blows on his slide-whistle]
Everyone: Yes let's keep the
[Moe crashes two garbage can lids together]
In Springfield!

[Krusty hits his face with a pie, Willy accidentally hits Lenny in
the head with a sledgehammer, Wiggum and the Comic Book Guy bounce
their bellies together, Burns honks the horn on his antique car,
Cap'n MacAllister reels in a fish, and Barney burps.]

"Lisa, It's Your Birthday" is another favorite.

What? No one said "Baby On Board"? It won a grammy after all...

Posted by: devdogaz

What about all the songs from 'Simpsoncalifragilisticexpiala(Annoyed Grunt)cious?'

Minimum Wage Nanny
Lisa: If you wish to be our sitter,
Please be sweet and never bitter.
Help us with math and book reports,
Bart: Might I add - eat my shorts!

(spoken)
Lisa: Bart!
Bart: Just cuttin' through the treacle.

Lisa: If Maggie's fussy, don't avoid her,
Bart: Let me get away with moider!
Lisa: Teach us songs and magic tricks,
Homer: Might I add - no fat chicks!

(spoken)
Marge: Homer!

Lisa: The nanny we want is kindly and sage,
Homer: And one who will work for minimum wage.
Lisa: Hurry nanny, things are grim,

(spoken)
Grampa: I'll do it!

Bart & Lisa: Anyone but him.

Cut Every Corner
Shary: If there's a task that must be done,
Don't turn your tail and run,
Don't pout, don't sob,
Just do a half-assed job!

If... you... cut every corner
It is really not so bad,
Everybody does it,
Even mom and dad.
If nobody sees it,
Then nobody gets mad,
Bart: It's the American way!

Shary: The policeman on the beat
Needs some time to rest his feet.
Wiggum: Fighting crime is not my cup of tea!
Shary: And the clerk who runs the store
Can charge a little more
For meat!
Apu: For meat!
Shary: And milk!
Apu: And milk!
Both: From 1984!

Shary: If... you... cut every corner,
You'll have more time for play,
Shary & OFF: It's the American waaaaay!

A Boozehound Named Barney
Shary: In front of a tavern,
Flat on his face,
A boozehound named Barney
Is pleading his case.

Barney: Buy me a beer,
Two bucks a glass.
Come on, help me,
I'm freezing my ass.

Buy me brandy,
A snifter of wine.
Who am I kidding?
I'll drink turpentine.

Moe: Move it, ya drunk,
Or I'll blast your rear end.
Barney: I found two bucks!
Moe: Then come in, my friend!

Shary: And so, let us leave
On this heartwarming scene.
Bart: Can I be a boozehound?
Homer: Not till you're fifteen.

Happy With Things The Way They Are
Homer: Around the house, I never lift a finger,
As a husband and a father, I'm sub-par.
I'd rather drink a beer
Than win father of the year,
I'm happy with things the way they are.

Lisa: I'm getting used to never getting noticed,
Bart: I'm stuck here till I can steal a car.
Marge: The house is still a mess,
And I'm going bald from stress,
Marge & Kids: But we're happy, just the way we are.

Ned: They're not perfect,
But the Lord says "Love thy neighbour."
Homer: Shut up, Flanders.
Ned: Okely-dokely-do.
Shary: Don't think it's sour grapes,
But you're all a bunch of apes,
And so I must be leaving you!

Oh there are so many and I like them all. I'd have to say the monorail song though.

Another funny one is with Mark Hamill as Nathan Detroit in Guys and Dolls:
"Luke be a Jedi tonight....." LOL

Posted by: DeDondeEs

Cut every corner (do a half-assed job) is my favorite. To this day I remember watching that for the first time and almost choking on my dinner I was laughing so hard. The part at the end where Shary Bobbins flys off with her umbrella only to get sucked into the engine of a passing by jet plane, was classic too.

My favorite is actually "A Boozehound Named Barney," from the same episode. "Can I be a boozehound?" "Not till you're 15."

Linda Ronstadt and Barney singing the Plow King is pretty good too....

Don't forget the Spanish version, accusing Mr. Plow of being a drunk!

Posted by: jradosh

It's not an entire production number, but I love the bit where Lisa and her college friends see Homer dancing around the house drunk and singing (to the tune of "Tubthumping" by Chubawamba)...

I take a whiskey drink.
I take a chocolat drink.
And when I have to pee
I use the kitchen sink.

Dr Zaius...no contest :)

"Dr. Zaius"

Ape: Help, the human's about to escape.
Troy: Get your paws off me, you dirty ape.
Ape: [gasping] He can talk!

Apes: [in unison, rythmed] He can talk
He can talk
He can talk
He can talk
He can talk
He can talk

Troy: [singing] I can siiiiiing!

[funky beat of "Rock Me Amadeus" starts playing]

Female Nurse Ape: Ooh, help me Dr. Zaius!
Apes: [in unison] Dr. Zaius, Dr. Zaius
Dr. Zaius, Dr. Zaius
Dr. Zaius, Dr. Zaius
Oh... Dr. Zaius
Ape: Dr. Zaius, Dr. Zaius.

Troy: What's wrong with me?
Zaius: I think you're crazy.
Troy: Want a second opinion.
Zaius: You're also lazy.

Apes: [in unison] Dr. Zaius, Dr. Zaius
Dr. Zaius, Dr. Zaius
Dr. Zaius, Dr. Zaius

[one ape starts breakdancing]

Oh... Dr. Zaius
Ape: Dr. Zaius, Dr. Zaius.

Troy: Can I play the piano anymore?
Zaius: Of course you can.
Troy: Well I couldn't before!

[plays piano]

"You'll Never Make a Monkey Out of Me"

Troy: [singing] I hate every ape I see
From chimpan-a to chimpan-zee
No, you'll never make a monkey out of me

Oh my God, I was wrong
It was Earth all along

You've finally made a monkey
Apes: Yes, we've finally made a monkey
Troy: Yes, you've finally made a monkey out of me
Apes: Yes, we've finally made a monkey out of you

Troy: I love you, Dr. Zaius!

People! What about Scorpio! From the episode where he's hired as safety director in the town with all the hammock stores and his boss is actually trying to rule the world? Sounds like a James Bond song? :)

Scorpio!
He'll sting you with his dreams of power and wealth, beware of
Scorpio!
His twisted twin obsessions are his plot to rule the world and his employee's health.

He'll welcome you into his lair
like the nobleman welcomes his guest
With free dental care and a stock plan that helps you inveeeeeeeeest!

But beware of his generous pension
and 3 weeks paid vacation each year
and on Fridays the lunchroom serves hotdogs and burgers and beeeeer!
He loves German Beer!!

How did I miss this thread first time 'round!
Excellent, excellent work people, but the winner comes to us via 'All In The Family:'

Those Were The Days

Boy, the way the Bee Gees played
Movies John Travolta made
Guessing how much Elvis weighed
Those were the days
And you knew where you were then
Watching shows like Gentle Ben
Mister, we could use a man like Sheriff Lobo again
"Disco Duck" and Fleetwood Mac
Coming out of my eight-track
Michael Jackson still was black
Those were the days
