Most car license plate holders that have the name of the dealership at the bottom I sing to "Werewolves of London" because many do scan:
Honda of OaklandAudi of BerkeleyPutnam Toyota
though enough of these do fit the Werewolves of London rhythm, my brain ends up hurting when I take note of one that does not fit because I will try and make it fit?

I must've read the phrase 'keep refrigerated' hundreds of times before yesterday but now that I've inexplicably read it in the style of the Offspring I don't know that I'll ever read it the same again.

Wow, I somehow never connected the syllabic pattern of "Message in a Bottle" with my near-constant "Girlfriend in a Coma" trochee fixation.
Up to now I would almost certainly immediately sing "chicken in a bucket I know, I know, it's serious."
Now I am going to have to completely reassess "Message in a Bottle." In both directions! So like I can sing "Message in a bottle I know, I know, it's serious." But also everything like "kitten with a backpack" can be Policified, not just Smithsed.
This is mindblowing.

when I was a kid everybody talked about Ozzy's "Crazy Train", but I didn't think I'd heard it before (turns out...I actually hadn't).
so I heard "Have a Cigar" by Pink Floyd and when they said "riding the gravy train" I thought they said "riding the Crazy train" and I wasl ike "why do people think this is a classic heavy metal song, wtf, there's an organ in it"
