Dead Skunk - by Loudon Wainwright III
Crossin' the highway late last night
He shoulda looked left and he shoulda looked right
He didn't see the station wagon, car
The skunk got squashed and there you are
You got yer
Dead skunk in the middle of the road
Dead skunk in the middle of the road
Dead skunk in the middle of the road
Stinkin' to high heaven
Take a whiff on me that ain't no rose
Roll up yer window and hold yer nose
You don't have to look and you don't have to see
'Cause you can feel it in your ol' factory
You got yer
Dead skunk in the middle of the road
Dead skunk in the middle of the road
Dead skunk in the middle of the road
And it's stinkin' to high heaven
Yeah, you got yer dead cat
And you got yer dead dog
On a moonlight night you got yer dead toad frog
Got yer dead rabbit and yer dead raccoon
The blood and the guts
They're gonna make you swoon
You got yer dead skunk, in the middle
Dead skunk in the middle of the road
Dead skunk in the middle of the road
Stinkin' to high heaven
C'mon stink
---- Instrumental Interlude ----
You got it
It's dead, it's in the middle
Dead skunk in the middle
Dead skunk in the middle of the road
Stinkin' to high heaven
All over the road
Technicolor man
Oh, you got pollution
It's dead, it's in the middle
And it's stinkin' to high, high heaven

Never heard that song, but I'll have to look it up now. We played a car game when we passed a dead skunk that went like this:
First person says:
Dead skunk in the middle of the road. I 1 it.
(The game can be ended at this point by saying, "Well then, you can have it!")
Or it goes on like this:
I 2 it.
I 3 it.
I 4 it.
I 5 it.
I 6 it.
I 7 it.
And then...
I 8 it.
or I jumped over it and you 8 it.
Followed by yucks from everyone in the car.

I SO remember that song.
Anytime me and my family were driving in the car and smelled a skunk, we would start singing that song at the top of our lungs!
good times.
