3055. Allan Sherman - I See Bones

From: My Son, The Nut; Year: 1963; Genre: Jazz/Comedy/Parody

Lately they've been playing a commercial on television with the song C'est si bon playing behind it; it's been getting to me enough that I've had it on my mind a lot and thus this rather unique parody but the late master of parody music: Allan Sherman.
This is a cute one where instead of the traditional lyrics this one has comedic lyrics about a French doctor listing off a bunch both weird and normal objects seen on an X-Ray.
Interestingly enough, the album this song appears on, My Son, The Nut, was the last comedy album to reach #1 on the charts until Weird Al did it last year with his album Mandatory Fun.
