For those looking for it, it's "I'm My Own Grandpa, which is a cover of The Jester's "I'm My Own Grandpaw".
Writers Dwight Latham and Moe Jaffe were inspired by a short Mark Twain story from the 1889 collection Wit and Humor of the Age:

"Well, Sam, I'll tell you how it is. You see, I married a widow, and this widow had a daughter. Then my father, being a widower, married our daughter, so you see my father is my own son-in-law."
"Yes, I see."
"Then again my step-daughter is my step-mother, ain't she? Well, then, her mother is my grandmother, ain't she? I am married to her, ain't I? So that makes me my own grand-father, doesn't it?"
I did the nasty in the pasty.
Futurama is the only correct reference to use here.
Indeed! That past nastification...
On 2 June 1989, aged 52, Wyman married 16-year-old Mandy Smith, whom he had "fallen in love with" when she was 13 and, according to Smith, had a sexual relationship with when she was 14.[45] The couple separated two years later and finalised their divorce two years after that.[46][47]
In 1993, Wyman's son Stephen Wyman married Patsy Smith, the 46-year-old mother of Bill's ex-wife Mandy Smith. Stephen was 30 years old at the time. Consequently, the ex-Rolling Stone became his own son's ex-son-in-law, the father-in-law of his ex-mother-in-law, as well as the stepgrandfather of his ex-wife.[50]
This is too complicated. Why not just marry your own grandmother?
I'm Interested In Trying
Where is the profit? Or just for shit and giggles?
As it would be stepgrandpa, and that is already a theme on xxxsite, he can bot profit and go fck himself
Ah, so finally we have an answer to Vethala's last question!
(In Indian mythology, the demon Vethala asks the wise king Vikramaditya several riddles. He answers all but one correctly. The one he cannot answer is this - if a widow and her daughter marry a youth and his widowed father respectively, and each couple has a child, what is the relation between the children?)
It can be confusing without crossing the generational layer. A friend of us married. At the wedding, the bride's (widowed) father met the groom's (also widowed) mother. They married a few months later.
