I listen to classical music. I go to the opera. I have a vast trove of music in my head.
So why the heck do I get “Polly Wolly Doodle”? I can’t shake it. Before that, a few days ago, it was “There’s a hole in the bucket, dear Liza, dear Liza.” (Merciful heaven, spare me “There was an old woman who swallowed a fly.” Sometimes that one goes on for days.)
Why couldn’t it be something from Puccini? or Chopin? or even a nice rendition of “Shenandoah”? Even a Rodgers & Hammerstein tune would be welcome. But no-o-o. Polly wolly doodle alla day.
What’s yours? Let’s trade.
