It seems in Newfoundland we can make up a funny or silly song about anything. Poking fun at ourselves goes hand in hand with everyday experiences. It makes no difference whether the song is about a soiree “Kelligrew’s Soiree” and the goings on. Creatures of the sea “Lobster Never Flounder”, a garden hose “Ain’t It A Beauty” suggestive but harmless fun. Winning the lotto, everyones dream “Diddle Dee & Diddle Dum” & The Winning Dream”, death & wakes “The Night Paddy Murphy Died” misfortune caused by trying to be ingenious “The Sick Note”, medicine and it’s hazards “Cod Liver Oil”, an answer to not getting caught for impared driving “Yankee Tom”, “Don’t “Tread On The Tail Of Me Coat” unless you’re in for a row or eruption.... and many other songs that deal with humourous situations and events. Many a person in Newfoundland would tell you if you were carrying on or joking around to “stop with your tomfoolery”... It’s all here, real or implied! What’s life without humor? Boring!
