HI:
I'm looking for songs about condoms or their use for inclusion
in a radio show about teen sexuality. Any music genre is OK
Any specific toons or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I suspect that if you want a specific toon, you might want to try Jessica
Rabbit. :-)
Actually, I recall hearing something by Uncle Bonsai a few years ago.

"The examples of so-called bookkeeping for a so-called public financial
institution that were presented to us as evidence could easily warrant for a
half-dozen or so loan officers an other-worldly judgment of perdition, forever
condemning them to scramble about the floor of Pandemonium, each looking for
the missing beads of his shattered abacus."

Some suggestions:
The Rude Girls -- "Safety First" on _Mixed Messages_
Charly King -- "Wrap that Rascal" (as yet unrecorded, I think)
Howard Kaplan of Toronto has a privately issued tape with 2 or 3 safe sex
songs -- I'll include the info. on another post.
Laura Berkson has a great song on her cassette -- sorry I don't have more
info at hand.
Peter Alsop has a funny song about his father's bureau drawer as an
"ice-breaker" on the topic.

Not much use for a radio show, since it's not recorded, but Cosy
Sheridan has a song about sex in the 90s (perhaps called "Sex in the
90s"), inspired by the news of the invention?/patenting?/approval?
of the female condom. I haven't heard her perform it in the past
year or two, but she used to say that it must be a marketing scheme
by the lubricant manufacturers - imagine rubbing latex against latex.
Hence the line from the song, "You may get it up but you won't get
it in." Anyway, this probably doesn't even reinforce the message
that I suspect your radio show is supposed to convey.
[Joke alert - please don't correct me on the "information" given below.]
Then there's Tom Paxton's "Yuppies in the Sky":
Condoms for sale
Condoms to buy
For yuppies in the sky.

Try Susan Werner's "Rubber Glove Blues". It's on her Midwestern Saturday
Night cd.

This is a little off topic but Judy Small has a song called "The IPD" which
is about the invention of an IUD for men. Hilarious!

I agree, but to be fair, she didn't write it. (I can't remember who did, but
it's in the liner notes for One Voice in the Crowd.)

Disappear Fear's self-titled disk has a song (the third or fourth one on the
album) with a line something like
... condom
without it
your dick's a knife
Sorry about the inexact wording; I just bought the album yesterday.

The song is "Fix My Life" and the lyrics referred to:
"But I couldn't see through/
your cool black case of HIV/
attacking our entire society/
condoms became a way of life/
without it man, your dick's a knife/
I said it, I said it/
Believe it/
I mean it."
Julie R. Weeks
her "Midwestern Saturday Night" album. It's an allegory called
"Rubber GLove Blues." Some of the lyrics are as follows:
"He says, 'Hey, little lady, why don't we go upstairs?
"I said, 'Listen up little man, before we go anywhere,
you wanna play in my park you better follow my rules.
You wanna swing in the dark, I wasn't born no fool...
"He says, b-b-b-baby, I need to make a little love.
"I said, 'You can't do my dishes without rubber gloves."
It's a good album aside from the allegorical ditty.
P.S. M-Go Blue.

I don't know of any non-bawdy ones, but there's always:
In days of old, when knights were bold
And condoms weren't invented:
They tied a thong around their dong
And banged away contented.
Or, see The Pioneers. (in the Digital Tradition)

Well, in fact, there are five "safe sex" songs as most people would
use that term, along with one song about unsafe frog sex and another
about the mechanics of earthworm sex. The cassette is, in fact,
called "Seven Songs of Safe Sex and Selected Supplementary Subjects
(plus a few other songs)", and it contains 12 songs. All of the safe
sex songs are on the second side, and they are as follows:
Much More Fun than Air -- a song filled with bad puns and
off-the-wall humour about condoms, which are called "adult
balloons". The title comes from these lines:
Have you ever played with an adult balloon?
If you haven't, you should try one soon.
As an entertainment, nothing can compare
For what you get to fill one with is much more fun than air.
Love Me the Way That I Am -- a song about the perhaps unexpected
relationship between sexual hygiene and dental hygiene, with one
passing reference to adult balloons.
The Chief Counselor's Waltz -- a song about how the staff at a
summer camp for older kids let them know how to find the condoms
without actually appearing to promote teen sex, based on a true
story.
Three Important Safety Lessons Found in Fortune Cookies -- a song
containing three shaggy-dog type stories, each of which discusses
a potentially unsafe behaviour and ends in the Mandarin Garden,
where a fortune cookie reveals the appropriate moral to draw from
the story.
A Gentleman of his Time -- a song discussing three risky activities
which, in his maturity, a man might reasonably forego or modify.
The two supplementary subjects on the second side are other forms of
protection and the aforementioned frog sex, and the first side includes
my only international hit (as performed by other people), "Low Flush".
I can mail you a copy of this cassette for $5 Canadian to Canadian
addresses or $5 U.S. to U.S. addresses. Why is the price so low? you
might reasonably ask. There are two catches. First, the tape is quite
clear but technically imperfect; it was simply recorded off the sound
system at a club before a small but enthusiastic audience, not in a
studio, so my capital investment in the master tape was approximately
$3, and I'm basically selling the copies at cost. Second, I will send
the cassette in a protective mailing case rather than an ordinary
plastic shelf case, so you'll have to put the cassette and J-card into
another case which you scavenge from a tape that you decide you don't
care for any more after hearing my tape. :-) Also, if you happen to
have a copy of the tape already or know anyone who does, I give you
permission to make additional copies provided that you also photocopy
the J-card -- my purpose with this particular cassette is to spread
the songs, not to make any money off of it.
Since making the tape, I have also written an unrecorded song called
"A field guide to common STDs".
The situation with my lead sheets is inconsistent and in transition.
Four of the five safe sex songs on the cassette are available in
print, but some of those are in a questionably legible dot matrix
form, and I'm not sure how quickly I'll be redoing them on a laser
printer -- I might wait until I have my hands on more satisfactory
software for making the lead sheets. At that time, I also hope to
get the fifth one and the field guide into print. If you want to
order the set of six, and if you are willing to risk the possibility
that I won't mail them until the spring, you can send me $2 (in
Canadian dollars in Canada, in $U.S. anywhere else worldwide) and I'll
get them out to you as soon as it's practical. Warning: I may throw
in some other songs, so let me know what other kinds of subjects
interest you, or you might wind up with a lot of frog songs! -:)
I'm also experimenting with E-mailing the lead sheets as Word Perfect
5.1 files, with the music as an embedded graphic. If you can read
and unzip attached binary files, you can send me E-mail and I'll send
back the lead sheets (again, it might not be until the spring). I will
also be able to E-mail the lyrics as straight ASCII and the music as
a PCX file, letting you do your own layout if you don't happen to have
Word Perfect -- let me know which format you prefer. I should also
investigate putting the songs into the same format that the Digital
Tradition uses, so you can use its built-in songplayer with lyrics
display, but that's just an idea, not a promise.

There's a song on an old Pete Seeger cassette (Circles and Seasons, 1979)
entitled "The Photographers". The whole song is a parody, with a lens
cap representing a condom! Unfortunately, I don't have a copy of the
lyrics, though.

I just remembered that there is a little thing, to the tune of Rosin the Beau,
called "An Ancient and Old Irish Condum", telling the story of the archeaological
excavation of the safe of Brian Boru. And if there is any interest, I could maybe
hunt up the lyric, unless someone else has it handier than I (it's probably
in digitrad!)

On last year's Susan Werner release Midwestern Saturday Night, there's a
quite funny track called "Rubber Glove Blues" that you might find
useful.
