Here's mine:
Don't go around tonight,
Well, it's bound to take your life,
There's a bathroom on the right

I don't know why, but singing "one ton tomato" just cracks me up.

(21,020 posts)my youth. Probably won't be too hard to guess, but the funny thing about it is that I never knew the actual words until maybe, oh...ten years ago...
Suspicion (torments my heart)
Suspicion (keeps us apart)
Suspicion (wipe out your ears)
then there was:
"I'm your penis...I'm your fire and your desire..."
Bertha Venation
(21,484 posts)Love it!
As for "I'm your penis" -- yep. I can't hear that song without hearing that word.
MADem
(135,425 posts)Penis if you will,
Please send a little girl for me to thrill
A girl who wants my kisses and my arms
A girl with all the charms of you.
Penis, make her fair
A lovely girl with sunlight in her hair
And take the brightest stars up in the skies
And place them in her eyes for me.

(13,871 posts)That she thought Paul Simon's 'Kodachrome' (she's too young to remember Kodachrome) was about a mother wanting to keep her son from leaving home, so "Mama's gonna take my coat and comb away" because you surely wouldn't leave home without a coat and a comb.
