I can't get this song out of my head.

So have you ever had a day when you are experiencing an odd earworm?

I experience this, but with spoken phrases.

There was a full week of my life spent revisiting the phrase "get off my lawn."

- in the drive thru when the gal didn't get my order right.
- a customer that seemed like he needed sam the bartender more than he needed px the customer service person.
- when one of my banks put a hold on 94 dollars worth of my paycheck.
- my boyfriend's ex (of 15 years ago) posted on his facebook wall.

get off my lawn, get off my lawn, get off my lawn....over and over...

Sewed oats...sewed oats...sewed oats...

Nope. That one isn't going to get stuck in my mind as much as fumunda slapjacks might.
