THE RED BOOGIE..MORRIE GOODSON & SONNY VALE (on Charter, I recall)
(It's in the big Bear Family box..probably lots of other appropriate ones as well)

And the opening to Stan Freberg's LITTLE BLUE RIDING HOOD (Only the color has 
been changed to prevent an investigation).

For that matter, Freberg's "Point of Order" lampooned the whole McCarthy/Army 
Hearings.
