Regarding Yes We Have No Bananas:

Spike Jones.
Did he actually write this song? I remember being told it was kind of adopted as a depressing standard 'round the turn of the century, the origins lost in a haystack of legend. I used to sing this song in a really jaunty, jovial voice back in junior high school and a teacher informed me it was really one of the saddest songs she knew. Had only seen it referenced in a book previously and loved the line. I'm interested to find out if ol' Spikey really penned it.
