… with songs they’ve tried most of their lives to forget!

(Some of the posts in the temporarily hijacked “The Night Chicago Died” thread gave me this idea.)

So, without further ado …

Him, him, him  
What’s she going to do about him?  
She’s going to have to do without him  
Or do without  
Me, Me, Me  
No one gets to get it for free  
It’s time for me to make the girl see  
It’s me or it’s him  
(Sorry.)

I once had the chorus of Lionel Richie’s “All Night Long” running through my head for days. I wanted to sue him for invasion of privacy.

Mambo #5  
“a little bit of monica in my life  
a little bit of Erica by my side  
a little bit of Rita is all I need…”

I could kill that man with my bare hands, and then I would quickly follow with my own death since I at one point (after hearing the song 3 or 4 times) liked the stupid song.

This is the song that does not end  
it just goes on and on my friend  
some people started singing it not knowing what it was  
and they’ll continue singing it forever just because  
This is the song that does not end…

(with abject apologies to Lion and Ayesha)

“The lion sleeps tonight…weema-wappa weema, wappa-weema…the lion sleeeps tooonight…WEEMA-WAPPA WEEMA”

“And we’ll have fun, fun, fun 'til her daddy takes the T-bird awaaaay…” (shoot the girl, the daddy and the car, in that order.)

And the most grating, godawful, fingernails down a chalkboard non-musical anthem:  
“If you’re sooo haaapy, then why you looook so saaad…” Manages to make throat-straining excess boring.

My secret weapon to get a much-hated ditty out of my head is to play my old ELO “Eldorado” LP & listen to “I Can’t You Out of My Head”. Works a treat.

Now if I just had a trick for getting rid of it…
