Sometimes I hear a song and imagine what it might be like if performed on The Muppet Show. I can really see/hear an Electric Mayhem version of Guns 'n' Roses' 'Welcome to the Jungle', performed in, of course, a jungle. With Dr Teeth singing and the piece ending with a screen full of apes, lions, snakes, etc etc.
Dude, that WOULD be sweet! What about Randy Newman's "Mama Told Me Not to Come"? That would be most excellent sung by Dr. Teeth:big_grin:

Let's see, tunes that the Muppets should have covered...well, here's two, at least.

"Walk of Life," by Dire Straits. I can really picture the Mayhem covering that.
"She Blinded Me With Science" by Thomas Dolby.

Hmm, what about "Bette Davis Eyes," by Kim Carnes?

I think I can also see the Mayhem doing "Unchain My Heart."

Did they, really?

Well...in that case, what about "Weird Science" by Oingo Boingo? Or "Dead Man's Party?"
