"Timothy" - The Buoys

In the history of rock music (frankly, you can include classical music history in this statement) precious few songs about cannibalism actually cracked the Top 20. But in 1971, that's exactly where the Buoys would go. The guy who wrote the song - Rupert Holmes - ended up with a huge hit years later ("Escape (The Pina Colada Song)"), but it didn't involve eating people nearly as much.
