I know that Mambo number 5 used to play every morning on my transit to work. I opened my morning Cardiac cases with the tune stuck in my head over and over. Worse yet, if I hummed the tune Anesthesia, Perfusion, and my scrub nurse would also have the tune stuck in their head. We cursed the song every morning until the local DJ made a format change on our request.

I would post the lyrics, but that wouldn’t be fair to your patients.

"Mambo No. 5" was originally a hit for Perez Prado & His Orchestra in 1950. When it was revived in 1999, I was teaching in a high school and noticed that it was especially popular among girls whose names were mentioned in the lyrics.
