This isn't exactly on par with Alec Baldwin's classic "Schweddy Balls" bit on Saturday Night Live, but it's a nice synergy of double entendre and environmentalism: On Wednesday's Tonight Show, Jimmy Fallon and guest Russell Crowe strapped on their guitars for a special song for Earth Day. Crowe gets a little uncomfortably literal with an audience member at one point, but if you haven't done your Earth Day commemoration yet, this is a catchy tune, and Fallon's tenor matches pretty well with Crowe's baritone. Also, let's face it, it's a song about balls in you mouth — but for a good cause, or something. Watch below. —Peter Weber
