Line 1: {{trope}} {{quote\|''"Great. Now I have ''this'' song stuck in my head."''\|'''Dr. Doofenshmirtz''', \|''[[Phineas and Ferb]]''}} [[Your Mileage May Vary\|You might or might not]] remember these [[Western Animation\|cartoons]], but it's inevitable [[Ear Worm\|their music is stuck in your mind]]. * [[Ear Worm/Disney\|Disney]] ~~----~~ ~~== [[Warner Bros]] ==~~ * Watch too many old ''[[Looney Tunes]]'' and ''Merrie Melodies'' shorts and you'll get the opening and closing music stuck in your head. There is one old [[Daffy Duck]] cartoon (in color, but when he was still actively daffy) where Daffy '''sang''' this theme. It's called "The Merry-Go-Round Broke Down." * [http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=q526mSA3TRs Here it is]. And let's not forget the clasic ''[[Bugs Bunny]] Show'' theme [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0TA2ajPV8k&feature=related This Is It] I remember there was this one Bugs Bunny episode where he was interviewed about his past... and it featured this [[Running Gag\|short song]] of him with three other people that made me laugh everytime. The only line I can remember is... "Now it's time to goooooooooo!" * It got transcribed in a ''[[FoxTrot]]'' strip once. It went like this: ~~{{quote\|Oh, we're the boys of the chorus~~ ~~We hope you'll like our show~~ ~~We know you're rootin' for us~~ ~~But now we have to goooooooooo! }}~~ It seems impossible to find, but those seven notes that play whenever the minah bird (the one who does nothing but hop along) appears are unbelievably catchy. * "Fingal's Cave" by [[Felix Mendelssohn]]. ''[[Baby Looney Tunes]]''... for your sanity and mine, DO NOT LINK TO THE OPENING!! ** "We are Russian gremlins/Up in the sky we're found..." * The ''[[Batman: The Animated Series\|Batman the Animated Series]]'' theme. Especially the opening hook. * The Batman Musical from the "Out of the Past" episode of ''[[Batman Beyond]]''. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ebI8H5nq5L4 A superstitious cowardly lot...] * It's Schway! * It's [[Stylistic Suck\|Schwarbage]]. Theme ''[[Superman: The Animated Series\|Superman the Animated Series]]'' theme is just as good. Even without lyrics, you want to sing along: Superman! Superman! Suuu-perman.... Superman! * [https://web.archive.org/web/20130925112410/http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/thatguywiththeglasses/theme-lyrics/12996-superman Here, this should help.] Don't forget The New Batman/Superman Adventures ** ''[[Batman Beyond]]'''s [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfzy110FKEw Intro.] * The ''[[Justice League (animation)\|Justice League Unlimited]]'' theme song should be noted as well. ** Found right [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sa2jYn3LmlE here.] * [[Tiny Toon Adventures\|"We're tiny, we're toony, we're all a little looney..."]] ** Happy World Land, Happy World Land! Where the fun doesn't stop, at only 80 bucks a pop in beautiful Happy World Land! * [[Animaniacs\|"It's time for Animaniacs! And we're zany to the max!"]] [[Animaniacs\|Wakko Warner]] presents: "[http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=sNUDDaEOvuY The Capitals of all 50 States]". And [http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0y8jkfXoX8 Yakko's World]. "[[List Song\|United States, Canada, Mexico, Panama, Haiti, Jamaica, Peru...]]" * Those are hardly suprising, considering that [[Older Than They Think\|the former is "Turkey in the Straw" and the latter is "The Mexican Hat Dance"]]. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NfqB2_ha-WA The sense of sight is what guides us right, we we go out on walks...] Oh GOD, make it stop! * Is it me, of does that song sound suspiciously similar to [[Tom Lehrer]]'s "The Irish Ballad"? They're simply written in the same rather common metre; the best known example is probably the Nightmare Song from [[Gilbert and Sullivan\|Iolanthe]]. They parodied "The Macarena" with "Macadamia Nut". Some might say a little ''too'' well... And, of course, the President Song. "Be Careful What You Eat." Once you realize, that ''that's the frickin' can can'', it just won't ever leave. Cuckoo clock/ Tick-tick-tock/ Piece of chalk/ Key and lock/ Oh, du schöne/Oh, du schöne/ Oh, du schöne/ Schnitzelbank!

It's sung to the tune of "It Don't Mean A Thing If It Ain't Got That Swing". ** "You're a meany, nasty Lobe/You're as bad as villains get..." * The theme for ''[[Duck Dodgers]]''. This troper doesn't even like the show, but used to flip to it just to hear the theme song. It was catchy AND addictive. * [[Teen Titans (animation)\|When there's trouble you know who to call, Teen Titans! From their tower they can see it all, Teen Titans!]] You think you can defeat me? Oh, how very droll! Well, Titans, one thing you should know. I am the one with magic powers 'round here, I am the one who runs the show! "When there's trouble you know what to doooooo, CALL CYBORG!

It's a spoof of ''[[Schoolhouse Rock]]'', so the [[Ear Worm]] affect was probably intentional. Still... must... resist... urge... to... sing in public. Speaking of Robot Chicken, what about the ending theme? Sure it's just them saying "bawk" to a little tune, but it's so catchy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=[[Mr Bpl Rjbg Sw]] And from the 3rd Star Wars special, Palpatine explains what the other 65 orders are.
