Some of the meaningful 'memorable' lines from days gone by like:

'Tutti Frutti ahh Rooty'
'Barp barp be-loo arp, a barb bang boo'
'Itsy bitsy teeny weeny yellow polka-dot bikini'
'Mash Potato yeah yeah yeah, Mash Potato yeah yeah yeah, Mash Potato etc . .

Yep, good ol' lyrics
I remember seeing Men Behaving Badly (UK) and Gary (Martin Clunes) said referring to a Seekers song he was singing along to..."They knew how to write a tune in those days....couldn't do words obviously...but they could do tunes!"

Those ones reminded me of that! lol

Cheers!

PS....you left out "Be Bop a Lula"
