Ok, maybe not the funniest, but the funniest song no one's heard of is "Ready To Settle" from High Fidelity in which the club singer goes through all the reasons she's ready to settle for a loser.
"Just No Time At All" from Pippin

"The Tale of the Oyster" (Cole Porter) from FIFTY MILLION FRENCHMEN.
Look it up!
Cast albums are NOT "soundtracks."
Live theatre does not use a "soundtrack." If it did, it wouldn't be live theatre!
I host a weekly one-hour radio program featuring cast album selections as well as songs by cabaret, jazz and theatre artists. The program, FRONT ROW CENTRE is heard Sundays 9 to 10 am and also Saturdays from 8 to 9 am (eastern times) on www.proudfm.com

"Miss Marmelstein" isn't from FUNNY GIRL. It is from I CAN GET IT FOR YOU WHOLSESALE. Still, it's a great number. (Not much else in the WHOLESALE score that ever grabbed me.)

Posted: 5/26/09 at 12:41amI'm going to second "You Won't Succeed on Broadway" from Spamalot. That's probably the most memorable, I think.

"love is my legs" from DRS still cracks me up after listening to it incesently.
"the leg bone's connected to ankle bone's connected to FEET BONES OF LOOOOVE!" - hilarious
