I still have some Tom Lehrer songs in my playlist. They sound like they're a product of their time but are still relevant today.

I am also amused that I learned "new math" in elementary school, but I think it's actually different from the "new math" in his song of that name. I didn't hate it, honestly. "Now the book wants you to do it in base 8." This is actually relevant to my day to day work. (Though in base 8, I have to say that I only ever use bitmasks. chmod 755 foobar)
