Songs About Salad

I've been known to post my share of eclectic collections of songs, but this Songs About Salad set might just be the strangest yet. I can only work with what songs are available, so it is what it is. But still...this is a decidedly offbeat amalgamation of styles, sounds, and sensations. Enjoy?  ~  JH

“Cock” & “Bull” Songs

You may not believe it's true, but these "Cock" & "Bull" Songs are merely a collection of tunes with one or both of these words in their titles. And they are all, surprisingly, quite enjoyable. But I'm sure you're not buying that flimsy excuse. Enjoy?  ~  JH

1)  Mitzi Gaynor  ~  “A Cock-Eyed Optimist”

2)  Rage Against The Machine  ~  “Bulls On Parade”
