Well, since POTM stands for PERFORMANCE, not PARODY, Of The Month,
I will enter my performance of the MOST-OFTEN-PARODIED Gilbert and Sullivan song,
The Major General's Song, " I Am The Very Model Of A Modern Major General ":

The Song:

Since Chucky G accepted that performance of mine for his AmiRight performance postings,
right here:

I believe that Chucky's acceptance of it qualifies it for this contest.    ;D

I haven't noticed very many comments on this performance so, I would like to encourage those of you who haven't watched and listened to this to do so. This is an AMAZING example of live theater. Johnny had one shot. He took it and, it was DEAD ON!

Consider the difficulty of memorizing the lyric alone then, delivering it without a single slip-up. Most of the recordings you'll see in these competitions will have been made with the luxury of multiple takes in order to get them right. Not this one.

Bravo, JD, BRAVO!

I'll second what Rick said... sorry, haven't commented, JD (or did I?  I can never remember).

My only recording this month, and so my entry for POTM is:

I've Got Body Hair
