    Everyone gets a song or two stuck in their head at times. Thought I would start a post to help when you only know some lyrics and not the title/band. I'll start:
    "Eating dirty deep fried chicken and dirty dirty rice"
    Thats all I remember but its stuck in my head.

    Is this it?
    This song is performed by Timbuk3 and appears on the album Edge Of Allegiance (1989).Timbuk3:Dirty Dirty Rice

    [​IMG] Send "Dirty Dirty Rice" Ringtone to your Cell [​IMG]Ad
    Well, you're livin' on the street,
    Cravin' something hot
    It's simmerin' in a dumpster
    Back by Popeye's parking lot

    Smell the rich aroma,
    It's a fragrance to entice
    Dirty deep fried chicken
    And dirty dirty rice

    All my bros on Sunset know
    There's nothing to compete
    No flop or rescue mission
    Serves nutrition so complete
    It's downright good eatin'
    And there's just no beatin' the price
    Dirty deep fried chicken
    And dirty dirty rice

    Ooooh oooh oooh

    Yuppies think I'm a wino
    'Cause I seem to have no class
    Girls think I'm perverted
    'Cause I watch them as they pass
    Cops think I'm a drughound
    But I only have one vice
    Dirty deep fried chicken
    And dirty dirty rice
    Dirty deep fried chicken
    And dirty dirty rice

    Frying chickens in the sun
    Politicians have their
    Fundraising dinners
    Their fine filet of sole
    Their creme de escargot
    And their nouveau casserole
    They can have all the caviar
    And the pink champagne on ice
    Gimme dirty deep fried chicken
    And dirty dirty rice

    Dirty deep fried chicken
    And dirty dirty rice
    Dirty deep fried chicken
    And dirty dirty rice

    Yes sir that's the one. Thanks man. Probably have not heard it since I was a teenager that explains the lyric mix up.

    I end up with teeny bopper songs that my kids listen to. That really drives me crazy. :hair:

    I've been trying to figure out a movie for YEARS.

    I'd guess circa early-mid 1980s trucker movie. I was pretty young.

    Had a white VW bug with some kind of an air scoop on the back. Machine guns.
    Only other thing I remember is one of the vehicles had a red "over temp" light in the dash... I think maybe a semi truck.

    Musta been somewhat popular cause I even had a Matchbox car of the VW.

    Earworm - song looping in the head.
    Like a traffic round-a-bout you can't exit.

    Yep, ear worm. They just did a segment on SciFri about it last week.

    At least you only thought one of them was a girl. I was just as confused as they were about what they were.

    Sometimes it is just soooo nice to be a homeschooling household without cable TV. I can honestly say I've never heard them or heard of them. Thank The Lord.
