Bohemian Puns

It must be the high Mercury content.

He thinks it's a polkageist.

I think it was filmed in the theatre though as I see a little silhouetto of a man...

Dan, sing Queen!

Thr waiter comes by and the Bohemian says,"Czech please."

The Czech engine light.

I said “I’m not sure about that but I can have a good crack at Bohemian Rhapsody”

I said "No, but I can do a great Bohemian Rhapsody"

No, but I can give Bohemian Rhapsody a go.

Me: I don’t know about that but I can take a stab at Bohemian Rhapsody

I said that I don't know that one, but I could take a shot at Bohemian Rhapsody.

Czechmate.

Every year for the past few years, I’ve written music for a tuba ensemble for a summer band camp. Last year’s music was titled “TubaChristmas in July,” which had “Hallelujah” by Pentatonix, “Carol of the Bells,” “You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch,” and “Have Yourself a Merry TubaChristmas.” This year I’m about 90% sure we’re doing rock/classic rock. So far I have “Bohemian Rhapsody” by Queen, “Paint It, Black” by The Rolling Stones, “Livin’ on a Prayer” by Bon Jovi, “Don’t Stop Believin’” by Journey, and some fifth song I haven’t chosen yet (BTW I’m open to song ideas).

I need a pun that mixes Tuba with Rock or with Classic Rock. Similar to how TubaChristmas in July doesn’t include song names, but you know it’s Christmas music on tubas.

It's a Bohemian Rap CD.

They had all sorts of bohemian Rap CDs.

My dad used to play a game with me and my brother that was, in effect, an extended dad joke.

The "beginner" version, when I was younger, was when I would be talking about something, my dad would intentionally misinterpret it so that we could correct him. The objective being to keep up the misinterpretation in as long of a chain as possible.

Me: "Dad! Top Gun is on TV!"

Dad: "Doesn't that movie have that whiny folk singer on the radio in it?"

Me: "...No, dad, that's Tom Petty, not Tom Cruise."

Dad: "Oh, I thought he was Rosanne Barr's husband?"

Me: "No, dad, that's Tom Arnold, not Tom Petty."

Dad: "Oh. I thought he was that golfer..."

Later, once I figured it out, we moved to "advanced mode", where we skip the "correction" and just prove that you catch the reference by making another error in response.

Dad: "Oh. I thought he was that golfer..." (Arnold Palmer)

Me: "...wait, I thought that was the victim in Twin Peaks?" (Laura Palmer)

Dad: "...no, you're thinking of the lady who was the actress in Jurassic Park." (Laura Dern)

And so on. Did anyone else's dad's do something like this? Or any current dads? I currently play a version of this with my wife where she'll put on the radio and I'll intentionally misinterpret the artist. (Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody is playing, I comment to the effect of "God, I love Styx. Such a great song.")

If he sampled them for an entire album, it would be a...

Bohemian Rhapsody Bowie mean rap CD

it would be a bohemian rap city.

They asked, "Can you perform under pressure?"

I said, "No, but I can perform Bohemian Rhapsody."

I said "Unfortunately not, but I know the words to Bohemian Rhapsody."

I said "I don't know that one but I can have a crack at Bohemian Rhapsody."
