ok..in the dental plan episode, lisa sings this protest song. after that, lenny says "now do classical gas" i think he says gas, may be something else. anyway, she plays this somewhat familiar sounding tune...and lenny moves to the music and takes this funny stance. what gives!?!?!?!?!?!

So we'll march day and night, by the big cooling tower, they have the plans but we have the pow...errr.

"This Homer fellow may not have been quite as smart as I believed."

Homer rolling around on the floor, three stooges style: Woo wooo woowoowoo wooo WOOOHOO woowoowoowooowoo.

don't forget the hired goons bit. That's a classic - the number 1 scene EVER! or maybe the shouting scene from Bart, the mother.

Homer: Where's bart? Marge: He's up in his room. Bart! Homer: it's ok marge, i'll get him. BAAAAAAAART!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lenny is demonstrating that he is a baby boomer and therefore likes cool 70's instrumental guitar songs.

Classical Gas is the result of eating renaissance beans.

I had never heard of "Classical Gas" before that episode--but I did hear it again recently in the commercials for that Bruce Willis movie--"The Sum of Us" IIRC.

Actually it was Lenny who asks HER to play classical gas... but we get the idea.

You are correct, the name of the Song is Classical Gas by Mason Williams. It's is a popular piece, generally for background music in movies and other television shows. I didn't know that was the name of the song until I saw the Simpsons episode either. You used to be able to get it on Napster, and it's possible that you might still be able to.

"Hey, you're right! First thing tomorrow morning, I'm gonna punch Lenny in the back of the head."

-- Homer to Marge, after she informs him that the teasing he receives from his coworkers (namely Lenny) is not necessarily affectionate.
