What was the name of the song when M16 was going into the men’s room? It used to be a favorite song of mine and I can’t remember the name!!!

Can you give us any lyrics or other details about the song to go on?

I actually have a copy of the movie, but it’s at my apartment (I’m at my mom’s house right now).

It’s not “The Sha-La-La Song” by Barbara Manning, is it? I know that song’s in the film.

It sounds like the Sex Pistols but I don’t think it’s them. It’s a very energetic chord-based guitar riff with some lyrics that all I can make out is something like “ethnic culture.”
