Somebody just shoot me already and get it over with quickly.
Edited on Wed Sep-08-04 07:46 AM by eyesroll
Yes, it's Eyesroll's Earworm of the Day. And this one's a doozy.

Oh baby, baby
How was I supposed to know
That something wasn't right here
Oh baby, baby
I shouldn't have let you go
And now you're out of sight, yeah
Show me how want it to be
Tell me baby 'cause I need to know now, oh because

Chorus:
My loneliness is killing me
I must confess I still believe
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
Give me a sign
Hit me baby one more time

Oh baby, baby
The reason I breathe is you
Boy you got me blinded
Oh pretty baby
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
It's not the way I planned it
Show me how you want it to be
Tell me baby 'cause I need to know now, oh because

Chorus:
My loneliness is killing me
I must confess I still believe
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
Give me a sign
Hit me baby one more time

Oh baby, baby how was I supposed to know
Oh pretty baby, I shouldn't have let you go
I must confess, that my loneliness is killing me now
Don't you know I still believe
That you will be here
And give me a sign
Hit me baby one more time

Chorus:
My loneliness is killing me
I must confess I still believe
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
Give me a sign
Hit me baby one more time

Copyright 1990something or maybe early 2000something Britney Spears. Just kill me.

1. I promise, no Hamster Dance this morning.
You're obviously suffering enough.

2. The Hampster Dance was suggested to me last night,
by someone who didn't know the Hampster Dance. He just started singing "do de do do dee" randomly.

5. Songs, badgers, yaks, whatever don't usually replace earworms
They supplement them.

So I can have Britney Spears and Eddy Grant (thanks, asthmaticeog) and the Hampster Dance and whatever else all floating around at once.

6. All at once?
That's pretty advanced. You clearly have a powerful mind.

But is it powerful enough to resist ... YELLOW SUBMARINE?

BWAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

No wonder my concentration's shot.

3. "Electric Avenue" by Eddy Grant
is always an A-1 foolproof earworm-killer for me, and it's easy to clear after it's done the job.

Good God!

De da de da diddy do do,
Hit me baby, out in the street,
Do do do do diddy baby one more time."

8. This was stuck in my head on a suburban commuter train.
Ding dang a dong bong bing bong
Ticky ticky thought of a gun
Everytime I try to do it all now baby
Am I on the run
Why why why why why baby
If it’s so evil then?
Give me my time, with all my power
Give it to me all again (wow)
Ding a ding a dang a dong dong ding dong
Every where I go

Jesus built your commuter train as well.

12. But the really scary thing was.
It was interspersed with 'Tempted' by Squeeze. One verse of JBMHR, then the chorus of Tempted. Disturberama.

Jesus built my suburban commuter train just doesn't have the same ring to it, though.

16. I got some funny looks from the cookie-cutter bourgeois drones.
Although, on second thoughts, screaming it wasn't such a good idea.

19. If I may humbly beg to differ,
screaming on a commuter train is always appropriate.

20. How do I top it tomorrow?
Perhaps I shall scream 'Multinational Corporations' by Napalm Death interspersed with bursts of 'Maneater' by Hall and Oates?

42. it was! I love trad. covers by alt or punky bands.
I recently got the Rocky Horror Punk Rock Show. A friend also sent me the Queers version of Don't Back Down. It is excellent.

And the next day you could top that with "Shitfun" by Whitehouse mixed up with "Walking on Sunshine."

Actually, anything by Whitehouse.

31. but, screaming on many levels,
would be appropriate on such a conveyance, yes? Well, having only been on them in NYC a few times and not to go to work.

see, this is why I rarely listen to commercial radio...

38. Most commuter transit is soul destroying.
All part of the Grand Corporate Conspiracy.

(Of course, I have to take a bus to the train, so I get the best of both worlds. Yay!)

(Mods: It's hedges' fault that this is in my head in the first place. "Tiny dildo" isn't a personal attack; it's a statement of fact, as he has, indeed, fucked me in the ear.)
