Lyrics - Novelty Songs

Lyrics - Novelty Songs

This entertaining pub quiz handout round features extracts of lyrics from 15 hit singles that are all considered novelty songs. The aim for teams in your quiz is to name these hits along with the acts who had hits with them. For example, the correct answer to "If life seems jolly rotten, there’s something you’ve forgotten" is "Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life" by Monty Python. 

A few of these lyrics should be fairly easy to identify so that most teams can get up and running on this round quickly, but teams should be kept busy with this quiz round for a while as there are also some lyrics that are likely to have people puzzling over them for some time.

The information in this quiz round could be used to make up standard question and answer rounds, where the quiz-master asks questions aloud and the teams write their answers on blank answer sheets, but we recommended that this is used as a handout round.

If you buy this handout round, we will give you access to pdf files you can download. Two of these will be for the main handout sheet - one as illustrated above, and one in a more plain format. The third sheet will contain the answers. You probably already have everything you need to access and use these rounds in your quiz, but you might want to check our requirements page to make sure.
