Steve Martin's classic homage to the Egyptian boy king.
"King Tut" is a novelty song performed by Steve Martin and the Toot Uncommons (actually members of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band). It was released as a single in 1978, sold over a million copies, and reached number 17 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
Martin previewed the song in a live performance during the April 22, 1978 episode of Saturday Night Live. The song was also included on Martin's album A Wild and Crazy Guy.

Re: Steve Martin: King Tut
I've never really cared much for Steve Martin or this skit in particular. Classic? I suppose. Funny? No.
