This is a clever and funny parody of classic doo-wop songs of the era, though I found the voiceover at the end a bit much.
Barry Mann only had the one hit single but he had a long and very successful career as a songwriter, mostly co-writing with his wife, Cynthia Weil, whom he married in 1961. Mann and Weil's list of recorded songs is extensive.
"Who Put The Bomp" was co-written by Mann and Gerry Goffin, another extremely successful songwriter (mostly with his first wife, Carole King). It reached #7 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Songs that Mann has written or co-written have reached the charts 98 times in the US and 53 times in the UK. He is still alive as I write this - he turned 87 earlier this month.
