Here are a few lines from the Wikipedia page on Tom Lehrer:
In October 2020, Lehrer transferred the music and lyrics for all songs he had ever written into the public domain.[65][66] In November 2022, he formally relinquished the copyright and performing/recording rights on his songs, making all music and lyrics composed by him free for anyone to use, and established a website from which the materials could be downloaded.[67] His statement releasing all his works into the public domain concludes with this note: "This website will be shut down at some date in the not too distant future, so if you want to download anything, don't wait too long."
With him still being alive, I definitely can't do them, living in Europe as I do, but surely we have some Tom Lehrer enthusiasts in the USA?
