i can remember singing this at one of my first part time jobs. i worked in a restaurant, and one night, the cooks started singing the verses while the dish boys did the ooga chakas. no idea what the customers thought of it all.
I use it as an incantation to coax the machine into reading a customer’s dilapidated card, after a joke about sacrificing a goat. You’d be surprised how often it works.
Wildcard & nighthawks it’s amazing what boredom can bring you to do.
ChukLitl i always use threats when machinery doesn’t want to work. as for incantations: i always liked Bugs Bunny’s the best, “Walla Walla, Washington!”

They probably thought, “Oh, GOD, even the kitchen crew gets the annoying birthday “serenade!” NO PLACE IS SAFE!”
