Get the Laughs! Hilarious Karaoke Gag Songs (41–50)
Honnō-ji IncidentEgusupurōjon
Egu Sprout is a dance unit affiliated with Yoshimoto Kogyo, active not only as dancers but also as choreographers.
Their “Dancing Lesson Series” video “Honnoji no Hen,” released on YouTube, brought Egu Sprout widespread recognition.
Their high-level yet comical dance, paired with lyrics that clearly explain historical events, makes learning fun for all ages.
It’s a perfect dance tune for when you want to get laughs—guaranteed to be a hit at karaoke.
From hunting to rice cultivationrekishi
A song by Rekishi that always entertains with lyrics packed with historical tidbits.
Featured on the album “Rekits,” this track includes contributions from Seiho Ito as Ashigaru-sensei and Yoshikazu Glover as the East India Trading Company man.
The chorus is phrased as questions, so you can have fun asking about everyone’s preferences when you’re at karaoke.
The lyrics throughout humorously depict historical events, making it easy to sing in a light, deadpan way even if you’re not great at karaoke.
There are lots of call-and-response sections too, making it perfect for getting everyone singing and hyped up!
Half-Price Flash SaleZa Rīsaru Weponzu
“Half-Price Time Sale” is a gag song by the Japanese–American rock duo The Lethal Weapons.
The track goes all-out singing about people scrambling for discounted items during a supermarket half-price time sale (lol)! The concept alone is already funny, but the musical style is a catchy, high-quality, straight-up ’80s hard rock sound, and that contrast makes it even more entertaining.
The chorus melody is super easy to remember, so let’s all sing along and crank up the energy together!
YATTA!happatai
Do you know the legendary sketch comedy show Warau Inu no Bōken (Adventures of the Laughing Dog)? Anyone in their 50s and up used to watch it religiously.
The song YATTA! was born from one of its popular sketches.
The flow of the sketch goes like this: something good happens to Uchimura, then the “Leaf Squad” led by Nanchan appears to celebrate him, they sing YATTA! and then exit the scene—and it’s hilariously well-timed.
The song itself is a celebratory tune you sing when something good happens, like passing an exam or getting a promotion.
When you want to celebrate someone, start by hyping up the room with this song.
If you form a little unit and perform it with a sketch-comedy vibe, it’s sure to be a hit!
Sorry for Being Cute feat. ChuutanHayami Saori
Saori Hayami’s nationally beloved hit “Sorry for Being Cute feat.
Chu-tan” has been especially popular among young people as a deliberately cutesy song.
The key to this track is its deliberately over-the-top cuteness that borders on being a little grating, isn’t it? It’s not exactly a comedic song, but by exaggerating that coyness, it transforms into something unique—highly recommended.
If you don’t go all in when you sing it, you can come across as simply, blatantly cutesy, so don’t be shy and sing it with confidence.
I’m going to Tokyo.Yoshi Ikuzo
Often cited as a pioneer of Japanese rap, the song “Ora Tokyo sa Iguda” is a huge hit by Ikuzo Yoshi.
Even long after its initial success, you still hear it frequently in commercials and on TV shows.
With a humorous, playful, and comedic take on the total lack of things in the countryside—unimaginable from city life—it never gets old despite being released in 1984.
It’s a karaoke staple: people who know it will sing along, and those who don’t will find it hilarious.
Dango Three BrothersSato Masahiko, Uchino Masumi, Horie Yoshiro
A song that was introduced in 1999 on NHK’s “Okaasan to Issho.” Its snappy tango rhythm and catchy, easy-to-hum melody made it a huge hit.
I think it’s a song that people of all ages and genders—from children to the elderly—can sing together in a big chorus.
Isn’t it a piece that can put a smile on everyone’s face?
