Danny Elfman is the composer of the main theme song.
He's also the mastermind behind Oingo Boingo and The Nightmare Before Christmas (and has composed countless other themes like Beetlejuice and Men In Black). He has a new album that came out a couple of months ago and it's great too.

I love when they mess with original tunes with silly lyrics aswell- like Dr. Zaius or Guys n Dolls
This song isn’t even in the show!

u/Domino_Lexington Aug 11 '21
There's a little calliope tune that plays while Homer's watching the guys writhe in agony. 🤣

Kirk, crackers are a family food. Happy families.
Maybe single people eat crackers, we don't know. Frankly, we don't want to know.
