Ah! That’s exactly what I did!

"Marge, is Lisa at Camp Granada?"

If that isn’t the truth though. My husband and I keep coming up with all these old songs and go to KZfaq and find them and sing along with them. Isn’t it great that we can look up all these old songs and sing along with them? I love KZfaq.

No King of Queens xd

Me too man

I bet Bart is stealing BoneStorm. "Buy me BoneStorm or go to hell."

awelcruiz I was dying laughing from that 😂

awelcruiz “now, to put this where no one will ever find it”

Just literally anyone come here for any other reason than that reference?

I clicked on this video thinking to myself "I am going to be pissed off if this isn't the top comment".

If we both survive

Probably

so i’m not the only one

I'm sorry to hear it man, my condolences. My brother passed in April this year, 33 years old :( I'm 36. He wasn't supposed to die before me, mom and dad. My parents played this song in the car when we were kids and man, we laughed - we didn't understand it, we just liked the way he spoke. Then as an adult I'm listening now and it asks "How's my precious little brother" ... shit hits hard man. Who'd have thought such a funny and light hearted song could bring a tear to my eye. Good sir, I hope you find peace in the lessons and life your father gave you.

Rest in peace dad.

@@fromthegamethrone Rest in peace bro.

@@robertl.crawford4369 thanks man x

sorry to hear that, my condolences to you and your family

I love this song in the 70s this was a theme for downy fabric softener😊

Not sure how much longer this song will be around, kids today don't get any of the references.

@@mre4u422 Yeah they do.. just the wrong ones Here in Germany the melody was used in the 80's and 90's for the commercial (from a cake factory). The melody is catchy, so it will be used forever for something like that and while back than it wasn't always easy to even find out what the source of some song is.. the internet changed that, so everyone who wants to know about the melody that keeps repeating over and over in ones brain can find out and I am sure that a lot will end up with originals like this one.

Good to know. Thanks

@@teorijaludaka I kind of just guessed that since, he said it was after dinner

When I was an ickle-pritty, all those years ago, and only so high, I used to think he was singing 'toenail poisoning . . '

It’s an outdated term now though, it’s no longer used medically (used to back when this video was made)

It's okay. When I heard Clapton singing JJ Cale, I thought he was saying, "I get high I get high-- ptomaine."

I do

Me!...know all the words too

Yep... I went to Girl Scout Camp for three weeks in Pennsylvania . I was eleven and it was in 1959. I remember when my parents came to take me Home I was never so happy to see them!!!

That'd be me. It just randomly popped into my head just now and here I am

@Maxwell Moller l ol

Did you forget "Here's To The Crabgrass?"

Allan was way ahead of his contemporaries. A lot like Ernie Kovacs. Both geniuses from another time.

My fifth grade art teacher would play this album on her record player for us if we promised to be quiet and keep this on the Q. T. Sure miss those days sometimes.

F for a fallen fat-buddy.

Dead ass

I heard it on a flea commercial I think Edit: it was on a K9 Advantix

Also the origin for Lynryd Skynyrd*

I always thought it was from a cartoon

What's rather odd is that I was thinking about this just last week. I didn't mention it or search for it or anything. Google/KZfaq is some REALLY scary shit sometimes . . .

Even though I am French Canadian. we watched the Ed Sullivan show and I remember this song...Whenever I visited my parents in Montréal as a grown adult, when I got up in the morning I would sing to them...Hello Mother....Hello Father...it became a tradition...

I thought Clint Eastwood made your day?

@@thomaspick4123 I like that!

I was introduced to this song by my parents when I was growing up. They are both gone now. Precious memories. The original song was instrumental and part of a classic piece of music. I don't recall the composer.

@@joseedaoust7347 French Canadian? lol give me a break. You're an English speaking country, stop being such a pretentious flog

I like that!

I'm 40 now too and am finally seeing this for the first time!

RIP, loved you tons. I always reflect and have only fond memoriePIR LARRY YOU AR E MISSED always in my heart and forever

My nana had a cassette that had this and a ton of silly songs like the itsy bitsy yellow polka bikini and a song about bubblegum on the bedpost. I listened to it all the time.

Was on one of my Dr Demento tapes

Nope...she isn't resting in peace. Her soul is doing other things. Christianity is ignorant. People don't "pass away"..we croak. The Body ends, but the Soul continue on to do many other things. If you mean the Bible God to bless her, you really should read the Bible completely, word for word, page by page. You wouldn't ask that of that book character if you do. Obviously, I have...read the the book that way. Honestly.

@@biblebadcopycatofcuneiform8210 when did I ever imply that I like reading books after all there’s a thing called PDF, also I’m Wiccan I don’t read the Bible cuz it goes against my religious beliefs I moved away from Christianity for a lot of reasons I don’t wanna get into cuz A it’s no one’s business and B I find talking about churchy things to be uncomfortable. But otherwise thanks for the comment much love

@@Yur_Commentator "When did I ever imply that I like reading books?" Ever? Maybe some time in one of your previous lives? "There’s a thing called PDF." Yeah, ehhh...Books are better. I like both. "I’m Wiccan I don’t read the Bible cuz it goes against my religious beliefs I moved away from Christianity for a lot of reasons." I was a hard-core Christian, look at my Avatar, and I know the Bible very well..I read it completely several times. I can go toe-to-toe if needed with them. Because I read it completely, I switched to Pagan. The Bible doesn't go against any "Beliefs" of Pagan or Wiccan, it uses and copies from Pagan/Wicca. You know who Mithra is, right? Where do you think the idea of Jesus/Yeshua comes from? Someone didn't help you very well in your switch from Christian to Wicca. Sad face. I left Christianity because I noticed all of the flaws, errors, contradictions. I also peered deeply into the Christian past. I've read the correct translations of Cuneiform, and from Cuneiform You...Will..Find..the deepest Pagan/Wicca roots. "A. It’s no one’s business and B. I find talking about churchy things to be uncomfortable. But otherwise thanks for the comment." If "Churchy" stuff is uncomforable, dear one, then you haven't arrived at confidence in what you Know beyond beliefs. From someone that _knows_ what that means. Wink. It's not anyone's business, well, true enough if you're not ready. I'm very confident, and I'll talk Church stuff if someone cares enough to challenge me. When you're ready, if you choose to become ready, you will be able to also. Don't challenge others until you're ready. To be ready is to challenge yourself first. Love without conditions, is something the Gods and Goddesses do, not conditional love..which is what's in the Bible. Blessed Be, because you are. If you don't reply again, be WELL. Happy Yuletide (perverted into Christmas), Samhain (perverted into Halloween), Beltane..and so on. Warm smile.

My grandparents had this album also. Every summer as kids we would fly to visit them and I’d listen to that album over and over. They had two of them. This song parody was my favorite. They passed the records on to me. I have them still safe and sound 😊. Great memories!

@@mrssilencedogood4825 good for you mate memories are written with that song

I can’t wait for you to be born in 10 years ig…

Sounds like bad advertising lol

@@watchmarley9268 I doubt the kids listened to the lyrics- it played right before lunch.

We sang it, too. Were singing it while doing dishes at camp. We got a little out of hand with the silverware...but we laughed a lot.

This got old after 30 seconds

You had to live in that era. Jonathan Winters was also big at that time and then Bill Cosby came into the picture.

@@r3tr0actiongamer24 Like your att.......span became old?

what is funny or good about this? was comedy just less funny back then

How do you have 500 subs and no videos

@@pluspens2134 Is it not obvious?

Just watched this on Netflix ...the more you know 😁

I just learned about this reference. Previously, everyone only mentioned the gym coach.

Did you know that at a Lynrd Skynrd show once, the EMCEE announced, "Everybody. Lenard Skinner." The crowd went wild. Then the Gym teacher came out and said the he was Leonard Skinner and then introduced Lynrd Skynrd.

@Deven,good searching &Oh so True!!!

Skiiiiinnnnerrrrr!!!!

Pretty sure this is a reupload. I watched this about a year back.

Hope you’re doing well :)

Lol

Oofff 😂

That would have been awesome to see as a parent!

Apparently one of my greatest high school mates family was going to buy the actual camp that the song is based off of. I was told that the writer who my friend doesn't know is Allen Sherman went to the camp that the song is about but it wasn't called Camp granada. It was just named that after the song, but turns out that the place might be haunted because my friend showed me a picture he took of a room in one of the bunks. In that picture in the corner of the room you can see a dark area and what looks like to be a figure of some sort squatting in the corner. He said he did not see it until his girlfriend spotted it out in the picture. I saw the picture and yeah it gives me chills. The picture itself haunts my friend because he saw nothing when he was there in person but it shows up in the picture.

Lucky you.

what is funny about this? it seems pretty old to me lol what is the joke, that the kid isn't having a good time at camp? that he's singing it? maybe it's referencing something I don't get

Nice, I sing anytime anywhere and also to my chooks :)

Hopefully the chickens give you a standing ovation (yes, pun intended!😜 )

what is the joke I don't get how this is funny
