I’m a Man, I spell M-A-N
(not that I’ve ever sung it)

I.T.H.O.T.M.O.A. by The Bobs

Copying my own replies from the previous thread:

Me C.O.R.T.O.–Mexican Starlight Express
Assassin’s Song–Blondel (I’m an A-double-S, and A-double-S, A-double-S-I-N)

You could kinda, sorta toss “Buenos Aires” from Evita in here:

I want to B-A part of B.A. Buenos-Aires Big-Apple.

Well, there’s my favorite song by the Rutles, Cheese and Onions:

 "Do I have to spell it out?
   C-h-e-e-s-e-a-n-d-o-n-i-o-n-s oh no"

It looks awkward typed out, but I assure you, it fits in the meter of the song itself quite neatly.

Travis Tritt…

“Hello T-R-O-U-B-L-E
Tell me what in the world you doin’ A-L-O-N-E
Yeah, say hey, good L double O K-I-N-G
Well, I smell T-R-O-U-B-L-E…”

Missy Elliot does alot of spelling in “Spelling Bee” (lyrics site - traverse with caution)

If you is a h-o-e get a j-o-b
I’m h-o-t on the t-o-p
Mister Mosely get the b-a-t
Dont copy this here cause I done d-i-d
It could get h-e-c-t-i-c
f-i-s-t in your f-a-c-e
Y’all don’t know how crazy Missy be
Don’t toy me I’m outta y’all leauge
Yes I’m bulletproof
Bitches I ain’t foolin’ you
You better learn a thing or two
You don’t really want it boo

AB-C-DEF-GHI-JKL-MNOP-QR-STU-VWX-YZ, it’s the most sensational word I’ve ever seen
AB-C-DEF-GHI-JKL-MNOP-QR-STU-VWX-YZ, I wish I knew exactly what I mean!

Which do you think came first? The Alphabet or the tune it’s sung to?

There’s that Gwen Guthrie song, “Ain’t nothing going on but the rent/ You gotta have a J-O-B if you want to be with me.”

“S.Y.S.L.J.F.M. (The Letter Song),” Joe Tex

I’m pretty sure the alphabet came before “Twinkle Twinkle, Little Star” but I can’t confirm for sure that the melody wasn’t first used to sing the alphabet instead.

And … we are not men, we are DEVO! We are not men, D-E-V-O!
