In honor of President’s Day, Toons & Tunes offers up this gem from The Looney Tunes Show, starring—gasp!–loony Lola Bunny! (We like the funny version of Lola; deal with it, nerds.) Lola presents her own skewed view of history in song, along with visuals resembling those of the former Cartoon Network series MAD. Here’s “President’s Day”.

Toons & Tunes: Cock of the Walk
Today’s Toons & Tunes comes to us courtesy of The Looney Tunes Show. (I’ve been in a Looney Tunes vibe recently, as you could probably tell.) The loudmouthed Southern rooster Foghorn Leghorn has always been a legend in his own mind, so what better way to illustrate that point than having him belt out a country tune where he brags about all of his alleged accomplishments? Here’s “Cock of the Walk”.
(It’s there, trust me. Click on it.)
-Look for cameos from Pepe LePew, the Instant Martians and Miss Prissy!
2 Funny/Toons & Tunes: MAD – That’s What Super Friends Are For
Today we have a “2-fer” (because it falls into 2 of our categories). The following sketch comes to us courtesy of the late Cartoon Network animated series MAD. It’s a musical number about the plight of being one the DC super heroes who aren’t the DC Trinity. Enjoy “That’s What Super Friends Are For”.
Toons & Tunes: Panama Canal
I first heard this one on Kids’ WB!, on Animaniacs‘ famous (or infamous, depending on your point of view) all musical episode. I wasn’t wild about a show featuring nothing but songs, as I’m generally not a fan of musicals and most of them didn’t gel with me, but I liked this particular one. I’m always up for a good nautical boat song, and anything that spotlights Yakko is always welcome. Here’s “Panama Canal”.
Toons & Tunes: Beaver Fever
It’s time for another Toons & Tunes. Today we have the Angry Beavers belting out a 1970’s style one-hit wonder disco tune on Disco-Rama: The Most Ginchy, Boss, Groove Thang on the Tube. Do I really need to say anything else? Here’s “Beaver Fever”.
