An 18 year old video of the Mario theme tune being played using a remote controlled cars and some wine bottles, was posted in a comment to a story on Ars last week and I've not been able to get that tune out of my head since then. At least my poorly remembered version of it.

MAY THE BIRD OF PARADISE FLY UP YOUR NOSE [1965]

[Verse 1]
One fine day as I was a-walkin' down the street
Spied a beggar man with rags upon his feet
Took a penny from my pocket
In his tin cup I did drop it
I heard him say as I made my retreat

[Chorus]
"May the bird of paradise fly up your nose
May an elephant caress you with his toes
May your wife be plagued with runners in her hose
May the bird of paradise fly up your nose"

[Verse 2]
My laundry man is really on his toes
Found a hundred-dollar bill among my clothes
When he called me I came runnin'
Gave him back his dime for phonin'
And I heard him sayin' as I turned to go

[Chorus]
"May the bird of paradise fly up your nose
May an elephant caress you with his toes
May your wife be plagued with runners in her hose
May the bird of paradise fly up your nose"

I would bet I haven't that song since 1965 when it was recorded. Why would it suddenly haunt my waking moments....................
