* The song was spoofed as the title of the 1974 album Let a Frown Be Your Umbrella, spotlighting Oscar the Grouch. The title track opens with Farley singing the original song for the introduction, getting as far as the title lyric. Oscar then takes over with his own grouchy parody lyrics. Only the original songwriters were credited on the album. 
* Oscar refers to the song as "Let a Scowl Be Your Umbrella" in Sesame Street Episode 0070.
* The 1975 Sesame Street book See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Smell No Evil includes a record titled Let a Smell Be Your Umbrella.
* While operating his Dial-a-Grouch service in Episode 1715, Oscar offers an aphorism incorporating the title of his own version: "Let a frown be your umbrella, and your eyebrows'll always be wet."
