Earlier, in the next room, boxes of Girl Scout cookies were being counted for distribution. I heard the phrase "Two Trefoils..." – and sang out, "...and a microphooooone!"
I was very proud of this. #DaddestOfDads

when I was in 6th grade choir they made us sing 'intro' songs, usually existing melodies with lyrics changed to be about facts about us, and one duo chose "Do You Love Me?" as their melody but sang "Do you know me? No I don't! Do you know me? No I don't! Do you know me? Now you're in my class!" and that's still how I hear it to this day because I remember only the most inane shit from childhood.

I looked it up on YouTube and it is actually late 70s.
