Beelzebubba is the fourth full-length studio album by the American satirical punk rock band the Dead Milkmen, released in 1988. The album featured their best-known song, "Punk Rock Girl." The song's video won rotation on MTV. While their music was still lively, some saw this album as more musically sophisticated than previous work (using trumpets in "RC's Mom", organ in "Bad Party", accordion in "Punk Rock Girl", violins in "Born to Love Volcanos," etc.). Jon Wurster is mentioned in the song "Stuart".

In 1989, the Dead Milkmen released the Smokin' Banana Peels EP, which contained several remixes of the song "Smokin' Banana Peels," originally featured on Beelzebubba. It also featured several previously unreleased songs.

Five tracks from this album ("I Walk The Thinnest Line," "Stuart," "Punk Rock Girl," "Smokin' Banana Peels," and "Life Is Shit") were selected for their 1997 compilation album Death Rides a Pale Cow: The Ultimate Collection.

The album cover features Rodney Linderman's father, also named Rodney.

All tracks written by the Dead Milkmen.

The song "Punk Rock Girl" is featured in the video game Tony Hawk's Project 8 and is covered by MxPx in On the Cover II. It was also covered by Streetlight Manifesto in their cover-project 99 Songs of Revolution. The song was also briefly heard in the pilot episode to the Fox series Raising Hope. "Punk Rock Girl" was also covered by Diesel Boy on the 1999 album Sofa King Cool. The music videos for "Punk Rock Girl" and "Smokin' Banana Peels" were shown on episodes of Beavis and Butt-head.
