* HillbillyIncest: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HMGCxsHyLQ "Inbred Local"]] is from the POV of the titular inbred local who wishes he had more chromosomes. He has a cousin-father-grampa and is married to his niece. The song's FolkMusic genre implies a rural background. ArtisticLicenseBiology: Having "more chromosomes" actually causes trisomy disorders like Down's Syndrome. Wanting to be less inbred would mean wanting "more heterozygous genes."

--> Those of good nature with light in their hearts

--> Beat them in the head till they break down and cry.

* CrossesTheLineTwice: Live performances of "Hey Nonny Nonny" have one of them grab one of the others and force him to simulate a blowjob. Not very funny. The one who does the simulating then spits out quite a bit of liquid, usually so that it gets in his eyes, and comments on the sting and the taste. That's hilarious.

* GoshDangItToHeck: "Just a Warning" is quite explicit in the ''horrid'' language the Boggards tend to use:
--> ''Oh welcome to the Boggards' show\\
If you brought kids you might wanna go,\\
For we are rogues who sing of sin and ills,\\
And if you stay we will doubt your parenting skills.\\
For we might say "Gosh!" and we might say "Jeepers!"\\
And we might throw "Poop!", that makes you wanna duck,\\
Well we might say "Golly!", and we might say "Shucks!",\\
And you can bet a buck,\\
That we'll say "[[PrecisionFStrike Fuck]]"!''

* BreadEggsMilkSquick: "I Once Had a Lass" is a pretty straightforward BawdySong until the last verse, which veers straight into a ''Film/TheSilenceOfTheLambs'' ShoutOut ("I once had a lass who lived in a hole/I lowered her water down in a bowl..."). There's an uncomfortable {{beat}} before the troupe sings the last chorus.

* LyricalDissonance: The traditional Irish tune, "Isn't It Grand, Boys" is a lovely melodic song... about a dead man attending his own funeral and wake, and making mean remarks about the attendees.
