"Any little fish can swim..."

[El Catador]

Buggeration!

Saw an advert on TV on Friday, just as I was about to leave for a weekend away, and the damn song in it has been going around my head for the last 48 hours.

It wouldn't have been quite so bad if it had been something a little more 'contemporary', instead of Noel Cowards 'Any little fish can swim' (sung by an animated zebra in a Greek yogurt ad - FFS).

At random intervals I've suddenly found myself singing (in a Noel Coward voice no less) lyrics like:

"Any little fish can swim,
Any little bird can fly" etc, etc.
(or worse still)
"Any little horse can neigh,
Any little cow can moo"

Credibility rating = zero
Help!

Has this affliction ever happened to anyone else, and how the hell do I stop it?

P.S. See here if you're curious (Don't say you weren't warned) : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdSgTR-ns64

Yes but unfortunately for me it was Peter Griffins Sodomy song from Family guy. I sing that at the most inappropriate times

For those church loving chaps (to which im not) what sticks in my mind is things like...

Morning has broken, like the first morning..

or

All things bright and beautiful, all creatures great and small..

Thats done it, now i cant get either out of my head

Could be worse. I find myself singing the AIDS song. And then feeling horrible about myself.

Always the Terry & June theme tune for me.

Bugger, that just started it off.

I get the keyboard line from this stuck in my head:




So I try to counter it with this:

Sometimes ..... but only sometimes!


But you really don't remember, was it something that they said?
Are the voices in your head calling, Gloria?

(Gloria, Gloria, Gloria, Gloria, Gloria)
(Gloria, Gloria, Gloria, Gloria, Gloria)

[Pipe Dude]

You could replace it with "Tom's Diner" by Suzanne Vega.
