The Doughnut in Granny's Greenhouse is the second album by the British comedy rock group Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band. In the United States, it was released as Urban Spaceman and added their U.K. hit single "I'm the Urban Spaceman" to the track listing.

By this time the band had changed their name to "The Bonzo Dog Band", dropping out the "Doo-Dah". The group's sound had also expanded beyond their music hall and jazz roots, drawing inspiration from the blues and psychedelic rock movements that had grown in popularity at the time. The phrase "the doughnut in granny's greenhouse" is obscure British slang for the lavatory. The band first heard it when Michael Palin told them a joke featuring it.

The chorus of "We Are Normal" features the lyric "We are normal and we want our freedom", a reference to a line from the 1963 play The Persecution and Assassination of Jean-Paul Marat as Performed by the Inmates of the Asylum of Charenton Under the Direction of the Marquis de Sade or Marat/Sade a line also quoted in "The Red Telephone", a song by the American band Love from their 1967 album Forever Changes.

The track 11 Moustachioed Daughters is a darkly comic evocation of the traditional Witches' Sabbath and features lyrics referencing the mythical hallucinogenic

flying ointment prepared from Atropa belladonna (and other Solanaceous plants).[5]

In 2007 the U.K. version was re-issued by EMI on CD with 5 bonus tracks.
