* 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!
** Let us introduce ourselves O people of this land!/ We are the Warner Brothers/ With Sister close at hand!/ I bet you all our wondering who is this young unknown?/ And why am I inheriting the Anvilanian throne?
** What are We: Maybe we are dogs/ Cute little dogs/ With ears/ And little tails that we can wag/ Hey! Let's go fetch his slippers and play tag!
** Almost every song in this show is an ear worm, like [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpS3eFqhxSQ this] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKrwlgiYn-c one], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_J5rBxeTIk this] one, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYP2qLsC3x4 and] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQndVv7T1vo&feature=related this] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHi4UHT7ZKo one too]

*** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ufJTqT5gMg0 Oh, how I love my cheeses! CHEEEESE from around the world!]. Setting a song about cheeses to "Semper Fidelis" = genius.
** "What we are singing/Is take off your pants..."
* [[Freakazoid!|"Super teen extraordinaire! Freakazoid! Freakazoid!"]]
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9iF96BunNIw&feature=related Runs around in underwear. Freakazoid! Freakazoid!]
** In-universe, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vt4QU9NfNIc Invisibo's theme] proves to be this. ("Where did he go? That Invisibo?"). 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! He can shoot a rocket from his shoooooe, 'CAUSE HE'S CYBORG!"
** Nagare nagare te kita mon da, kita kara nishi e kake nuke te kite, tadori tsui ta koko wa ittai dokoooooo...
