    You know those songs that you never learned the lyrics of but come one particular line you're in there with it, singing along, only to fade back out to hum/stop after a few seconds. Especially funny/weird in supermarkets, where everyone hums quietly then mouths/sings one line and then gets some beans. I can't think of many right now, except...

    Clouds in my coffee, clouds in my coffee - you're so vain
    ..termite, chokin' on the splinters - loser
    chan-GER - seven seconds

    "Just because your paranoid, dos'nt mean they're not after you" - Nirvana

    And this poped into my head completely randomly today

    "You spin me right round
    Baby right round
    Like a record baby right round
    spin me right round"

    (Dead or Alive i believe)

    I always thought it was clowns in the coffee... but I guess clouds makes slightly more sense...

    Oh yeah, I forgot to say the chorus/song title don't count.
    I thought of that Bono line as well, but I reckoned most people know the other lyrics after being subjected to three different takes on it.
