From memory, when I looked at one of their albums covers, the titles were - Some Songs, Some More Songs, Even More Songs.

Actually I think I remember some funny titles as well.

While we laugh at the sillyness of it all, metal takes itself too seriously at times. It's good to have comedy there too.

My friend Phil played in a Melbourne band called Mass Confusion. They played from 1986 to 1993. While they had a few serious songs, the majority were comedy.

A prime example is the final track off their only LP/CD 'Confusion Instrusion'.

'Bowel Growl'

They say I'm a showoff,
When it comes to a blowoff,
Let loose from my wind ripping ring.
My turd tornados,
And air poo pillows,
Just Wanna rush out and sing!

Bowel Growl, the tormenting tunnel goes boom!
I rack another score and you go phwaaw and leave the room!

There's more, but you get the idea. I was in tears when I first read those lyrics! A metal song about farting!
They were a cool band though and were excellent live.
