If that’s the case, you might be interested in listening to some Lonely Island songs. They’re something of a comedy trio that sings.

Maybe you’re interested in finding out what they’re all about for the first time. If you are, here are ten of their songs, listed from number 10 to number one, complete with YouTube links. Go check them out and see what you think.
10. Shy Ronnie 2: Ronnie & Clyde (2011)
As you might have already guessed, this one is a parody on practically everything related to Bonnie and Clyde. It’s relatively rare that you listen to a song that deals with comedy in this manner, although it has been done a few times in the past. In this particular case, you’re dealing with a parody of the story of Bonnie and Clyde, only you’re throwing someone who’s so shy they can scarcely function into the process, making the whole thing seem hilariously funny.
9. Lazy Sunday (2009)
Is it not that easy to write a song about something that is routine, even mundane in nature. Nevertheless, that’s exactly what you have here. They have indeed created a song about laying around until late in the morning, then getting together to go to the market, make a sandwich and do other mundane things that people typically do on a Sunday afternoon.
8. The Creep (2011)
This odd little song is a lot of things. It talks about someone called “The Creep”, hence its name featuring Nicki Minaj. It largely refers to that one person in a small town that seems to always exist, the one that everyone else speculates about because they don’t quite fit in. In this particular case, that type of persona is paired with a particular dance style. As weird as that sounds, it’s something that is quite funny when it’s performed in song, which is one of the reasons that it ended up on this list.
7. Jizz in My Pants (2009)
There’s no doubt that you can judge what this song is about from the title alone. In order to keep this particular description G-rated, it’s a funny song about coming of age, shall we say. If you want to know what the lyrics are about in detail, you can click on the link and listen for yourself.
6. I Just Had Sex (2011)
This is another one about coming of age. It’s told in a very funny way which makes it a real riot to listen to. That being said, a detailed description probably isn’t appropriate for this particular article. Nevertheless, it is one of their top 10 songs, so you can always click on the YouTube link and listen to it if you’re so inclined.
5. YOLO (2013)
Even if you’re not particularly familiar with social media acronyms, you probably know what this one is because it’s been in mainstream commercials and virtually everywhere else for a number of years. It stands for “You Only Live Once”. This is a hilarious song that talks about doing a lot of things that you probably shouldn’t be doing because they’re not very smart. Furthermore, if you do a lot of the things in this song you probably won’t be around for very long. It’s a parody on the attitude of “well you only live once, so you might as well go for it”.
4. Jack Sparrow (2011)
Who isn’t familiar with the character Jack Sparrow? Even if you’ve never sat through an entire “Pirates of the Caribbean” movie, you probably still know who Jack Sparrow is. This is a song that takes that character and sort of reinvents him in a new, extremely funny light that will have you laughing so hard that tears will be rolling down your face by the time you’re done listening to the song.
3. Dick in a Box (2009)
There are times when you want to listen to your favorite pieces of music, especially featuring Justin Timberlake, as a way to create a certain amount of comfort and then there are other times when you want to hear something that’s completely unlike anything you’ve ever heard before. If that’s the case, you might be interested in listening to some Lonely Island songs. They’re something of a comedy trio that sings. They started performing back in 2001 and throughout the course of a number of years, they’ve developed quite the fan following, despite the fact that there’s still a lot of people who have never even heard of them. Maybe you’re interested in finding out what they’re all about for the first time. If you are, here are ten of their songs, listed from number 10 to number one, complete with YouTube links. Go check them out and see what you think.
2. Threw It on the Ground (2011)
A lot of fans really love this song and others end up scratching their heads when they listen to it. Just as the title implies, it is literally a song about taking everything that someone hands you and throwing it on the ground as hard as you can. Throughout the song, this includes things like an energy drink, a hotdog and even a cell phone. For the end of the song, there’s some birthday cake involved. Everyone knows that anyone who throws birthday cake on the ground as opposed to eating it is completely out of their mind. Nevertheless, the song is funny so perhaps you should give it a listen.
1. I’m on a Boat (2009)
This song sort of makes fun of people who really indulge themselves in the whole rich and famous lifestyle. The lyrics talk about being the king of virtually everything when you’re on your own boat because you can do what you want with no rules. Everyone knows that’s not really how it works, but it does work well for the song.
