I have found that good musical comedians have a much greater chance of surviving material. A song like this is catchy and funny where as a joke is just funny.
Not every musical comedy is like that. A song like Axis of Awesome's Four Cords can be heard once and found funny, then maybe a few more times where you really start to notice all the songs featured... and then its done. Tim Minchin's Canvas Bags you probably can stop listening halfway through and not miss much.
But Tim Minchin's 3 minute song? Took me a few listens through to get all the references etc AND its catch and its funny.
I've heard some Horne Section songs that I'm fine with never listening to again, I got the joke and the song isn't a style I like. Then there are the ones like this one. It isn't going on my (non-existant) ipod but I might listen again at some point because its still funny and the music is fun.

I'm surprised Josh Widdicombe wasn't counting the peas

Thank God it's not beans if they had to know if juice counted
@AllTheRooks
A most juvenile joke delivered in a most exceptional way
@peterclarke7240
The wind up to it is gloriously childish, the deadpan delivery is what makes it genious- really taste the anus. So pathetic, and yet so fucking wonderful. Its the entire history of british comedy in a song.
@billyeveryteen7328
@Peter Clarke It's the sincerity of the song that really sells it. If it wasn't a song by the Horne Section making silly, cheeky puns, it would just be a really catchy, straightforward folk song.
@peterclarke7240
@Billy Everyteen True- pretty much every great comedy song, from whichever country, starts with the music and delivery being absolutely on-point - Tenacious D, The Darkness, even Monty Python or the criminally under-rated Red Dwarf theme tune (I still laugh whenever I think of the line "I'm all alone, more or less"), all lend themselves to being great tunes within their genre, with vocals delivered in the perfect style for that genre, until you then listen to the lyrics, and then they get even better :)
