Now if you'd been asking me to choose between "The Meowmix Theme" and "Do The Shake & Vac.", that would have been a different matter entirely....

So something like:
"Living in a rabbit tunnel, Keep the doggie in her kennel, Mustn't let her see the world.
Miaow miaow!Don't treat her like that. Miaow miaow!Don't treat her like that.
Shout it clear for all to hear, You won't shoot this bird down. Shout it clear for all to hear, We're going to take this town.
Oh oh oh oh, miaow miaowOh oh oh oh, miaow miaow.";
perhaps?

"I like fish and I like liver / I like chicken in my dinner
[..forgotten this bit..]
Now you know a cat's meow means meowmix, meowmix, meowmix MEOW"
at people every so often. I never sing Pictures Of Matchstick Men at anyone so I guess Meowmix wins.

in seriousness though, I remember having a pretty ecstatic experience the first time I heard pictures of matchstick men

It really made an impression on me, too! And I must have been pretty young.

the original for me, right at the peak of a college party, although I remember liking the CVB a lot too around the same age.
