Novelty song
A novelty song is a usually intentionally humorous song, usually in published or recorded form. These songs may take the form of a parody, or a comedic take on current events or fads and may defy the usual categorization of music, or may not even be music. Many use unusual lyrics, subjects, or instrumentation. Novelty songs are frequently unexpected hits, and may bring their authors or singers unexpected, though often temporary, fame.
