the list of 9 for december 11, 2008:
NINE SONGS THAT ARE MUCH FUNNIER WHEN THE WORD "LOVE" IS REPLACED BY "POOP"

This list is explicitly a tie-in with my new short comedy, Party Pooper, now available forviewing and voting (click "Funny!") atFunny Or Die. Now that the film'sout, I must reveal myself to my readers as a proud fan and practioner of potty humor. And arunning joke in our household has been to take classic pop songs with "love" in the title orlyrics and changing the word to "poop" for big laffs around the dinner table. (Note: It's alsofun to change the word "heart" to "butt".) There are hundreds of examples; here are only nine. Forthe discreet, I will list the songs below by their normal titles, and let you substitute "poop"for "love" by inference.

  1. YOU CAN'T HURRY LOVE, The Supremes. No, you just have towait. She said love don't come easy, it's a game of give and take.

  2. WHOLE LOTTA LOVE, Led Zeppelin. I'm gonna give you everyinch of my love.

  3. THE LOOK OF LOVE, Dusty Springfield. The look of love is in your eyes. The look your smile can't disguise.

  4. THE POWER OF LOVE, Huey Lewis and the News. The power oflove is a curious thing. Make a one man weep, make another man sing.

  5. LOVE HURTS, Roy Orbison (also: Nazareth). Love is like a flame. It burns you when it's hot.

  6. LOOKIN' FOR LOVE, Waylon Jennings. I was looking for love in all the wrong places. Looking for love in too many faces.

  7. WHAT ABOUT LOVE, Heart. Don't let it slip away. What aboutlove - I only want to share it with you.

  8. SHOWER ME WITH YOUR LOVE, Surface. Shower me with the lovethat I long for.

  9. TWO LOVERS, Mary Wells. I've got two lovers, and I ain't ashamed. Two lovers and I love them both the same.
