“The Gnome” By Pink Floyd
Speaking of lesser-known works of famous musicians, I think this falls in that category. This Pink Floyd song about “a gnome named Grimble Crumble” who “wore a scarlet tunic, a blue green hood, it looked quite good” is, to me, the perfect
level of quirk. “The Gnome” is a delight of a song about the simple life of a simple gnome. Does it sound like a song that may have been written while taking a “trip”? Maybe.

“At the Zoo”
By Simon and Garfunkel According to the character, Rob, from High Fidelity, you should never include more than one song from the same artist on a playlist, but what can I say? I’m a rulebreaker, I guess? Listen to this if you want an absolutely slanderous account of various animals at a zoo. I say this because the lyrics include the line,
“The elephants are kindly but they’re dumb,” which could not be more preposterous — to be clear, because they’re smart, not because they’re mean. But still listen, because this song attributes various traits to different animals in a hilarious way.
