We made a magazine all about pants. Not a fashion magazine or anything, just people writing/drawing/doing poems abut pants. Now it's time to launch it and I seem to need some pants-related songs for a radio show. Seems like a perfect question for the hive-mind. Any ideas?

Not a song, but you need to see Mark Dancey's Illustrated History of Pants.

Five Iron Frenzy has 8 versions in different styles (hip-hop, country, etc.) of a song called These Are Not My Pants off the album Quantity is Job 1. IIRC, they're all quite short, and the lyrics are pretty dumb.

See here for some tool lip syncing to the country version.

The Vandals- Change My Pants

(Be aware if you are playing this on the radio that there are a couple of less-than-FCC-appropriate words that you would need to cough out.)

Bonzo Dog band - The Trouser Press (song starts at about 1:11 after a lot of intro nonsense, which you'd expect) - live in 2006, and yes, featuring a trouser press solo.

Velcro Fly is a fine song, but the ZZ Top pant-er you want is Blue Jean Blues
