At last! A decent earworm!
This one doesn't bug me (yet -- it might in a few hours).

I died, so many years ago.
But you can make me feel like it isn't so.
And why you come to be with me, I think I finally know.
Mmmmmm.

You're scared, ashamed of what you feel.
And you can't tell the ones you love, you know they couldn't deal.
A whisper in a dead man's ear, that doesn't make it real.
That's great, but I don't wanna play.
'Cause bein' with you touches me, more than I can say.
And since I'm only dead to you,
I'm sayin' stay away.
And let me rest in peace.
Let me rest in peace! Let me get some sleep!
Let me take my love and bury it in a hole six foot deep!
I can lay my body down but I can't find my sweet release!
So let me rest in peace!

You know, you got a willin' slave.
And you just love to play the thought that you might misbehave.
But 'til you do, I'm tellin' you Stop visitin' my grave!
And let me rest in peace!

I know I should go.
But I follow you like a man possessed.
There's a traitor here beneath my breast,
And it hurts me more than you've ever guessed.
If my heart could beat it would break my chest.
But I can see you're unimpressed.

So leave me be,
And let me rest in peace! Let me get some sleep!
Let me take my love and bury it in a hole six foot deep!
I can lay my body down but I can't find my sweet release!
Let me rest in peace!
Why won't you let me rest in peace!

1. I thought you were going to say "Muskrat Love"
Muskrat muskrat, candle light
Doing the town and doing it right with my baby
blah blah blah blah

And they whirled and they twirled and they tangoed
la la la la la la la la
Lokkin' like the heaven above, must be muskrat love

2. Oh my God.
"Buffy" songs.

I mean, sure. It was the best musical committed to film in decades. But still, you are talking TV music. TV music. Like:

There's a time you gotta
Go and show you're growin'
Now you know about
The Facts of Life


and

The world don't move
To the beat of just one drum
What might be right for you
May not be right for some


and

Every time I turn around
I see the girl
Who turns my world around
Standing there


and even

Everywhere you look
There's a smile
A hand to hold on to


and

In my opinionation
The sun is gonna surely shine


Trust me. This is not a road you want to go down.

3. Nope. Not gonna happen. You know why?
Because I'm NOT under your spell.

You know that world enchanted, with spirits and charms in the air? Well...I am the only one there, baby.

5. What? Our house isn't enchanted.
Infested, maybe, but not enchanted...

6. Congratulations!
I've got "Fell-good Hit of the Summer" by Queens of the Stone Age stuck in my head this morning:

"Nicotine, Valium, Vicodin, marijuana, ecstasy and alcohol.
Nicotine, Valium, Vicodin, marijuana, ecstasy and alcohol.
Nicotine, Valium, Vicodin, marijuana, ecstasy and alcohol.
Nicotine, Valium, Vicodin, marijuana, ecstasy and alcohol.
C-c-c-c-c-cocaine!!!!!!!"

No more small rodent earworms. I promise.

12. My favorite thing about 'Feel-Good Hit' is...
Rob Halford sang on it. I already liked the song, but every once in a while I remember that and it makes me snicker. Rob Halford.
