Song stuck in my head today, and somewhat appropriate at that:
Minnie the Moocher, by Cab Calloway. For those of you that don't know the song, here are the lyrics...
Tekst: Cab Calloway Minnie The Moocher Musik: Irving Mills

1. Hey folks here's the story 'bout Minnie the Moocher
She was a lowdown hoocie coocher
She was the roughest toughest frail
But Minnie had a heart as big as a whale
Hidehidehidehi
Hodehodehodeho
Hedehedehedehe
Hidehidehideho


2.
She messed around with a bloke named Smokie
She loved him though he was cokey
He took her down to Chinatown
and he showed her how to kick the gong around
Hidehidehidehi
Whoah
Hedehedehedehe
A hidehidehideho


3.
She had a dream about the king of Sweden
He gave her things that she was needin'
He gave her a home built of gold and steel
A diamond car with platinum wheels
A hidehidehidehidehidehidehi
Hodehodehodehodehodehodeho
Scoodlelywoscoodlelywoscoodlelywoodlelywoodlelywo
Cededeedlelydeeaboodlelydeeceedlelydeeaboodlelytoy


4.
He gave her his townhouse and his racing horses
Each meal she ate was a dozen courses
Had a million dollars worth of nickels and dimes
She sat around and counted them all a million times
Hidehidehidehi
Hodehodehodeho
Hedehedehedehe
Hidehidehideho

Poor Min, poor Min, poor Minnie
