Many, many moons ago, I was working the graveyard shift at Safeway. They had their own music programming. We could not alter it, or turn it off. One of the huuuuge issues was it replayed the same set every hour, including Tiny Bubbles. After many hours of Tiny Bubbles, we were all ready for the looney bin.
I hate how they have turned bums and druggies into the word homeless. They chose to be out there. Homeless people have jobs or want one but can’t afford a home.
There are convenience stores that blast opera arias to create an environment not conducive to either the homeless or other lingerers IYKWIM. I can’t find the link but I discuss this in my music course: the irony of wanting to promote quality music while effectively admitting that the more quality the music, the less likely the Hoi polloi are to become less polloi.
How about looping ‘hit the road, Jack’ by Roger Miller?
The Barney Song.

Anything by Lady Gaga will clear out the homeless encampments along with rodent infestations.
I’ve heard of teens using some business as a gathering spot at night. To drive them away, the business owners started playing Big Band Showtunes over loudspeaker. It had the desired effect - the teenagers cleared out.
If you've ever listened to talk radio, I'm sure you've heard THAT one.
IIRC, at one time some prison played the theme from Gilligan’s Island in a loop to torture prisoners. Could be an old wives’ tale; I’m not sure.
Endless jazz would torture me.
Lol! I love it! It was Gerardo Parra’s walkup song for the Nat during their World Series season. I loved doing the shark jaws with my arms. But I would not want to listen to it on constant repeat!!

My lawyer did this like four years ago in Austin. Same song.
I’ve posted about it before.
I wonder if the store owner is a freeper or read about it.
Do do do do do
Courts have ruled that actions encouraging the homeless to leave is a violation of their constitutional rights. These actions have included playing music and turning on sprinklers.
Walk through one of them “homeless” camps without retching from the smell...I’m on the side of those trying to annoy them away....
One proven method to encouraging teens and the homeless to leave an area is to play classical and opera music loudly.
Play Barry Manilow. Through in some Leif Garett and David Cassidy.
I guess Baby Shark is a buzz-kill. They want some Pink Floyd.
“Baby Shark”? It could have been worse. Brucie Sprungsteen and and Kneel Not So Young sing romantic duets for their “mates” in Britian.
