I think a song that is fun, like Mambo #5 and Little Bit of Mary, or "Endicott" (by Kid Creole and the Coconuts) or Dire Straits "Industrial Disease", are not quite novelty.
I never did hear Barbie, tho I heard of it.
Parody counts, so Wierd Al is carrying on the tradition.
I'm kinda thinking now that our world is so kooky and diverse, that maybe there can't be novelty songs any more.
I even wonder if there is enough other materiel for Dr Demento to put out a 1990's compilation?
