I briefly glimpsed a container of hot cereal in the kitchen cupboard at work that mentioned it contained "oats and barley".

And now I have- incessantly, mind you- the children's song going through my head:



Oats, peas, beans, and barley grow,
Oats, peas, beans, and barley grow,
Can you or I or anyone know
How oats, peas, beans, and barley grow?




And it won't go away.



Won't, won't, won't!

Just sing Kenny Rodger's...

Laaady....I'm your knight in shinning armor and I loooove you....

That usually works.

I have the same problem anytime I even say "Aqualung"...

oh, dammit....'auqalung my friend, don't you walk away uneasy...'

I. AM. SO. OLD.

Well no one with any taste should know Kenny Rodgers. (MEOW) But you might know Aqualung if you heard it....you know..."da da da da da dum." Did that help?

I. AM. A. DORK.

You don't know Aqualung?? *gasp* Check the samples (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00000GAIW/102-3622131-9160133?v=glance&n=5174) (scroll down) and make sure, because that would make you the first person I know who has ever admitted to not knowing Jethro Tull.

Oh, and the Jeopardy theme song usually drives out earworms quite well, but it tends to replace them. Use it with caution. :)

Oooohhhhh, I do actually know that song. It gets played in [livejournal.com profile] polyfrog's car often.


Have I mentioned, though, that I was raised by wolves?

Yes.


But a nice, harmless dork.

Well, great, now I have "Mairzy Doats" stuck in my head because I don't know yours and that was the closest match my earworm-monkey could find... {grumble}

Ah, THAT one I know. But sadly, only because of Piers Anthony. :P
