For the past few hours I have had the Aqua song _Barbie Girl_ stuck in my head.

I’m hoping that some kind Doper can see his or her way clear to FedEx me a large revolver and one round of ammunition.

Thanks in advance,

Ball\_M.

“A long, long time ago, I can still remember  
When that music used to make me smile  
And I knew that if I had my chance  
I could make those people dance  
And maybe they’d be happy for a while…”

…does that help?

No? How about:

It’s a small world after all  
It’s a small world after all  
It’s a small world after all  
It’s a small, small world…

I’ll share with you the one that’s been running through my head since I posted it in another thread:

\*But the cat came back the very next day  
The cat came back, they thought he was a goner  
But the cat came back, he just wouldn’t stay away

They threw him in the kennel where the dog was asleep  
And the bones of cats lay piled in a heap  
That kennel burst apart and the dog flew out the side  
With his ears chewed off and holes in his hide

But the cat came back the very next day  
The cat came back, they thought he was a goner  
But the cat came back, he just wouldn’t stay away\*

Life in plastic, it’s fantastic!

Fie on you, **harmless**! I’ve suspected that you have a twisted side, but I would never have guessed you were EVIL! I will now have to play some old Bread or BG’s to get back to being able to walk and chew gum at the same time. They, too will make me crazy, but not for days on end.

Just imagine Roseanne Barr in a string bikini.

You forgot about the song, right?

For your sake it had better be a song considering it was posted right after me talking about my underoos. :dubious: 😛

Just listen to some of [these tracks](http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0000089JE/qid=1099689922/sr=2-2/ref=pd_ka_b_2_2/002-3255223-9456023). You won’t worry about euro-pop ever again.

_It is the song that never ends, yes it goes on and on my friends. Some people started singing it not knowing what it was, and they’ll continue singing it forever jsut because it is the song that never ends…_
