Get the Laughs! Hilarious Karaoke Gag Songs (41–50)
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.
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.
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!
a windfall; an unexpected piece of good luck (literally, “rice cakes falling from a shelf”)busai-ku
The unit Busaiku, produced by Masahiro Nakai, has a song called “Tana Kara Botamochi” that’s guaranteed to fire up any karaoke session.
The group was formed from the less prominent members of Kis-My-Ft2, and even their unit name gives off a tongue-in-cheek vibe.
Their bittersweet cries from behind the three members who stand at the front of Kis-My-Ft2 are sure to make you laugh.
It’s recommended for people who want to shout about their own underdog status, as well as for anyone who simply loves Johnny’s or Kis-My-Ft2.
If you pick this song while everyone’s singing at karaoke, you’re bound to get noticed.
udonGero
Singer-songwriter Gero, who’s also active as a YouTuber, initially had an idol-like vibe, but his true colors gradually came out, and now he’s popular as a singer-songwriter who can really handle talk segments.
Among his works, the one I especially recommend is Udon.
To put it bluntly, this song is downright dirty.
It’s wrapped in euphemisms, but the message is hardcore dirty humor, so you might want to avoid singing it when members of the opposite sex are around (lol).
Just-woken-up palm treeyukopi
Yukopi, who also drew attention for their collaboration commercial with Nissin Cup Noodles, is hilarious in the original song that’s not the CM version, where they only convey that “on windy days my hairstyle turns into slicked-back hair,” giving it a sort of nonsensical gag vibe.
The song “Neoki Yashi no Ki” (Waking-Palm) just conveys one thing: “When I woke up, my hair had exploded and looked like a palm tree.” Even the rhyme between “neoki” (waking) and “yashi no ki” (palm tree) gradually becomes funny.
The unshowy, monotone melody isn’t trying to be quirky, yet it’s got heavy addictive power!
You farted, didn’t you?MEN’S 5
A funny song themed around farts that begins with a sad-sounding intro.
Over a mellow, old-school folk-song vibe, it carries silly, fart-related lyrics from start to finish.
If someone suddenly started singing this, it would be hard not to laugh, wouldn’t it? lol Back when Flash videos were popular on the internet, there were videos that used this song too.
For a fart-themed song, it might just barely be acceptable even for large-group karaoke, right? lol Whether you know it or not, it’s a track anyone can enjoy.
