Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm

I'd like to post a toast of admiration to the Crash Test Dummies song, "Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm." And because it's guaranteed that this song won't leave my head for days now, I'd like for all of you to join in the celebration by letting it refrain in your head over and over and over again ... Enjoy.

Once there was this kid who
Got into an accident and couldn't come to school
But when he finally came back
His hair had turned from black into bright white
He said that it was from when
The car had smashed so hard

Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm

Once there was this girl who
Wouldn't go and change with the girls in the change room
But when they finally made her
They saw birthmarks all over her body
She couldn't quite explain it
They'd always just been there

Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm

But both girl and boy were glad
'Cause one kid had it worse than that

'Cause then there was this boy whose
Parents made him come directly home right after school
And when they went to their church
They shook and lurched all over the church floor
He couldn't quite explain it
They'd always just gone there

Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm

Still in my head and it's 7 hours later!!!

Of course now, i've got will ferrell's elf voice in my head, too: "I just like to smile. Smiling's my favorite."

Ahh, what a good song/movie match up.

Evil, evil, evil. This song brings back memories of being locked in the closet as a child.

this is a great song Mary.....the
"And when they went to their church
They shook and lurched all over the church floor
He couldn't quite explain it
They'd always just gone there" part reminds me of the kinds of small, hokey churches my parents made me go to when I was little......creepy and weird.
