Yes they did, and that was the one that got airtime.
J. Geils Band- Piss on the wall--- Freeze Frame Album
(Peter Wolf/Seth Justman) - 1981
Now some people think the world is what it ain't
To some I'm a sinner, to others a saint
Some folks say the world ain't what is is
All I know is I just got to take a wiz
Where am I goin' and where have I been
My head's in the clouds and my tail's in a spin
Jumpin' out of planes for the thrill of it all
Then I bounce back and take a Piss On The Wall
Politics - Shmolitics
They oughta save their breath
Mean streak - blue streak
They sentence me to death
Harangue me from a tree
Twist and shout until I crawl
Do the flip - do the flop
Piss On The Wall
Well the Yanks hate the Reds
And the Greeks hate the Turks
I really hate to say it
But they're all a bunch of jerks
Seems like everybody's shakin'
'Cause the big one's 'bout to fall
I'm just tryin' to hold it steady while I
Piss On The Wall
Nice going, Katy. I can still remember seeing them on "The Ed Sullivan Show" a few weeks after The Beatles were on. I remember the lead singer was Mike Smith. Dave Clark on drums. The other guys -- hmm, was it Denis Payton, Len Davidson -- can't recall the fifth one. Remember their follow up to "Glad All Over" was "Bits And Pieces?" One of the few songs where the drums were the main instrument -- we wore out a few floorboards stomping to that one!

oops...nevermind...i see it was already posted!
The Blues Magoos rocked! ;)
Thats the one I remember.
The Rivington's were a definite niche market group.
Me, too. Sorry!
Right you are, NYA. Also "Tallahassee Lassie." And Gary "US" Bonds did "New Orleans," as in "Every southern belle is a Mississippi queen, down the Mississippi down in New Orleans, I said a hey hey hey hey yeah...."
Faye Dunaway
"Psychedelic Lollipop" was a great album by them!

Their original name was Bloos Magoos. Should've kept it that way.
Hilarious!
