Tom Lehrer is an American singer-songwriter, satirist, pianist, and mathematician. Best known for his piano songs. Titles include: "Poisoning Pigeons in the Park", "The Vatican Rag" & "The Irish ballad"

I found out about him recently and have to share him, you can find a lot of his songs on youtube, in low quality but when you hear the songs you'll 'get it', he had me in stitches. I recommend "I got it from Agnes"

Love Tom Lehrer - have done for years. His Elements song got me through my physics. Have you listened to Peter Skellern?

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

You may want to dip your toes into the Flanders and Swann pool as well. Linguistically funny and just sometimes absurd.

I have his entire collection. What he sang in the 60's is just as valid today.

"Be Prepared".
