If I could remember the context, I'd be able to get closer. I hesitate to contaminate my ask-the-audience, but I have three strong candidates in mind
Some routine by Lenny Bruce, shortly before he became unfunny, a Harlan Ellison Short Story, or maybe something in one of Woody Allen's books ... didn't he do some demented take-off on Kafka's Metamorphosis? I'm sure it wasn't anything to do with Archy and Mehitabel.
