Catchy songs that are unsingable... This MIA song is currently stuck in my head, and it's very frustrating because I can't sing it out loud (without sounding foolish).→[More:]
"All I wanna do is *BANG* *BANG* *BANG* *BANG* and a *CLICK* *KA-CHING* and take your money!"

Argh! I haven't been this stymied since high school with that stupid "Informer" song.

Has anyone else experienced this? If so, what was the song?

Yes. Sing Me Spanish Techno is totally impossible to sing acappella by yourself out in the woods. Not because the lyrics are naughty but because it's just impossible. And if you try even your dogs will look at you funny, plus you will feel like a complete and total idiot when a mountain biker appears out of nowhere.

That is a catchy tune.

I find the songs from the musical Hair are impossible to sing. Not that they are hard to sing, but the lyrics are unforgivable if heard out of context; or heard at all perhaps! However, I do find myself running down the street singing "White boys are delicious" if no one is around.
