One of my favorite odd ball songs would have to be Just Eat It by Weird Al.

Could you explain a bit more what you mean by "odd ball songs"?

Like weird songs? The singer is weird? I'm not totally getting it.

How's about I'm Fat by Weird Al, or My Bologna?

LadyFlameSniper, I think he means odd-ball as in strange or humorus songs. Like song parodies or songs that have amusing lyrics. Such as alot of 'Wierd Al' songs or non-parody songs that are like that. He'll need to clarify that better, but I believe that is what he meant given his pick.

The Jedi song by Weird Al was always a favorite, but I loved his version of Gangsta's Paradise. "Amish Paradise" The video for that was so funny.

Ooh okay. I'm going with Amish Paradise. That's freakin hilarious.

Hmmm, I'm going to take a guess and say that non-Weird Al songs are allowed ^_^. Anyway, my favorite oddball song is 'Solar Prestige A Gammon' by Elton John. I have never been able to figure out what the Hell he's talking about @_@

Oh, and Amish Paradise Kicks Ass too ~_^

As much as I love Weird Al, my favorite comedy song is "Green Eggs and Ham" by Moxy Früvous, a hilarious musical retelling of the Seuss classic.

I love the 'Lumberjack Song' by Monty Python, as well as their 'Meaning of Life', 'The Galaxy song' and the "I like Chinese" song. They just rock.

Alice's Restaurant by Arlo Guthrie would be my favorite odd-ball song. I looooove it. I don't care that it is 18 minutes long, I really do enjoy listening to it again and again cuz it always makes me laugh. If you've never heard it....you should download it and listen to it at least once.

I like anything by Weird Al. Everyone tries to duplicate his style, but they know Weird Al will always come out on top.

I love the song "Yeah Toast", but I don't know who it's by. And I also like "These are Not My Pants" by Five Iron Frenzy and just about anything by Weird Al. Also, I don't know if this counts (but it has funny lyrics!) I love "Baby Got Back" by Sir Mixalot.

Here's what I can think of from the top of my head (besides the Weird Al stuff):

"Rice Rice Baby"
"Will the Real Slim Shady Please Shut Up?"
That one song about Michael Jackson, which is sung to the tune of "Heal The World", which mentions Clorox Bleach (It was played on my local radio station back in '92)
"The 12 Pains of Christmas" (Sending Christmas cards! Hangovers! Breaking up the lights!)
"Make My Boobies One More Time" (it's about you-know-who and her "rumor")

Pretty much any song from the B-52's, including "Devil's In My Car", "Big Bird", and especially "Hallucinating Pluto", which has my favorite line I ever heard in a song:

Get off your laser, daddy, and fly your telescope INTO THE NIGHT!
