I agree, I first encountered this song at my brother's wedding when the MC
(my other brother) made the mistake of saying their were a few
announcements before the meal would be served. All of by brother's
(married) Scouting peers got up and did it. It was mildly funny but they
were only a small portion of the people there. By the third time the rest
of the guests had enough and I was willing to escort the offenders out of
the reception. Repitition doesn't make it any funnier, trust me.
