Q5: Is the song in which the character appears a JoCo original song?
A5: The way I’m going to answer this is to say, this song is not a cover of another songwriter’s song.
I say this because I find some of his songs difficult to characterize — is Washy Ad Jeffy HIS song, really, or his dad’s teacher’s mnemonic turned into a song? Is Rock & Roll boy a cover, really? Did KFC’s training department actually collaborate on Bacteria? and so on. So A5 above gives you solid information.
Clarifying “narrator” — I interpret this as more than just a first person song. To me, a narrator is someone telling a story, like the first person who’s also a character in Town Crotch, or the first person who isn’t really a character in Kenesaw Mountain Landis. To me, your list above is mixed, when it comes to narrators, Dr. PC. I’d say, ask a new question for more information.
