I only know a few, including (of course) the Elements song. And Poisoning Pigeons in the Park.

And “we’ll all go together when we go … radioactive glow”.
And the real meaning of Christmas, as in:
“angels we have heard on high, tell us to out and buy”
Great choice of thread, because I want to listen to the christmas one today.
PS. There was a reference to “poisoning pigeons in the park” at Jeremy’s funeral. mrs m had never heard of Tom Lehrer and thought that Jeremy had actually poisoned pigeons in the park.

I must listen to “Pollution” again.
I can see now that I’ve been getting “We’ll all go together when we go” mixed up with “So long, mom”. Both are songs protesting against nuclear war.

I’ve posted this link here before; with the new access to Lehrer’s music, it’s possible that someone will get the joke (I’m pretty sure nobody got it last time I posted it.)

I have to admit; the joke isn’t very obvious.
