   You need the Anti-Song
   For those of us of a certain age, there’s a song that will always drive others from our minds:
   “Bum, bum, bumblebee,
   Bumblebee tuna,
   I love bumblebee,
   Bumblebee tuna,
   Yum, yum, bumblbee,
   Bumblebee tuna,
   I love the sandwich made with Bumblebee!
   Bum-ble-BEE!!!”
   Works every time.

      And if that insidious song in your head is what I think it is, you ain’t transcribing it very well.
      Mananana
      Doot doooooo, do do do,
      Mananana
      Doot do do, Doo!
      Mananana
      Doot doooooo, do do doot,
      Do do doot
      Do do doot
      Do do do do do do doot doot dooooooo do!

         Hey, it made sense in my head…just didn’t quite make it to the keyboard. I bow before your more accurate transcription.
         Unfortunately, the Bumblebee Tuna jingle didn’t quite work, though for some reason I’m hungry now. Maybe I have that MP3 of the Hamster Dance Techno Remix around here somewhere…

            I was afraid the Bumblebee Tuna song wouldn’t work. You’re too young to have lived through their media blitz when the commercial sponsored local kid shows in every market.
            😛

               {snicker} Been a long time since anyone told me I was too young for anything. Thanks!
               And I assure you, I know that song note-for-note, it just doesn’t seem to have that pure brain-cell-adhesion that things like the Hamster Dance and any disco-era song might have 🙂

      The Mephiskapheles cover of that song ROCKS.
      You’re right, though, it’s beyond evil.
