Apropos of nothing, in Alfred Bester's great SF novel The Demolished Man, a killer made use of such a song -- they call 'em "pepsis" in the book -- to cloak his guilt against the probings of the telepathic detective employed by the police of his society. Once it was spinning in his head, the telepath could read nothing else from him. Think it would work?

What's embarrasing is when I sing it outloud in the elevator going to work.
It's a small world af-ter all...It's a small world af-ter all...It's a small world af-ter all...It's a small world after all...
Muh hu hu hua hua huaaa!
And those dancing puppets, and being trapped in the ride at DisneyWorld in the dark...OH NO!!!...IT'S BACK.
Same level for those who were around in the early '60's. The Teddy Bears..."To know, know, know him is to love, love, love him. Just to see him smile, makes my life worthwhile..."
Somebody should PULL THIS THREAD...or Freepers will be readily identifiable on Christmas for spending the day humming everyone's most memorable dumb songs all day long!
Ooo my little pretty one, pretty one
when you gonna give me some time Sharona
Will you make my motor run, motor run,
honey coming off of the line Sharona
Never gonna stop give it up such a dirty mind
Always get it up from the touch of the younger kind
My My My Sharona (4x)
Come a little closer huh be a hon
Close enough to look in my eyes Sharona
Keep a little mystery get to me
Running down the length of my thigh Sharona
Never gonna stop give it up such a dirty mind
Always get it up from the touch of the younger kind
My My My Sharona (2x)
When you gonna give to me give to me
Is it just a mater of time Sharona
Here's a trip to destiny to destiny
Or is it just a game in my mind Sharona
Never gonna stop give it up such a dirty mind
Always get it up from the touch of the younger kind My My My Sharona (2x)
I hate it when that happens...
Then again, sometimes I get a song from Pete Townsend's rock opera "Psychoderelict" stuck in my head...but that one is ok...
Now and then you see a soul and you fall in love You can't do a thing about it (repeat 3 times)
In you I saw someone that I recognized
Had no idea what was in your mind
I met your eyes and I was hypnotized
I let our lives become entwined
Fine little girl she waits for me
Me catch the ship for cross the sea
Me sail the ship all alone
Me never think me make it home
Louie, Louie, me gotta go
Louie, Louie, me gotta go
Three nights and days me sail the sea
Me think of girl constantly
On the ship I dream she there
I smell the rose in her hair
Louie, Louie, me gotta go
Louie, Louie, me gotta go
Me see Jamaica moon above
It won't be long, me see my love,
I take her in my arms and then
Me tell her I never leave again
Louie, Louie, me gotta go
Louie, Louie, me gotta go
Oh, Cookie, Cookie, Cookie starts with "C!"
Amazingly annoying, isn't it?
Thanks. We will suffer together this Christmas.
