OH! This is how you did that to yourself! (the Song Stuck in Your Head thread).

This topic is likely to have some real winners running on a loop in my head until well after the voting is over. 
Maybe I need a playlist of “dumb lyric chasers” to drown them out and get some rest.

Longing. Your cursor swings over the like button
Rusted. Your mouse-clicking finger trembles
Seventeen. Focusing your will, you jerk your finger off the mouse
Daybreak. beads of sweat form on your brow, as your finger slowly inches back towards the button
Furnace…
Freight Car. reading the final trigger word, your finger slams on the left-mouse button and the little heart on the post turns red. With relentless efficiency, you like every post in the thread one by one…

Almost the entirely of “Hotel California”.
Link in case you’ve forgotten how dumb they are. Also, wow, Don Henley seems kind of a dick in the notes:

Hahaha, thanks, wasn’t aware and was afraid I might be extrapolating from my generalised loathing of a musician’s output onto their personalities, again 
I have also always hated his solo 80s dirge-like megahit “Boys of Summer”, so there’s that

I heard that the rest of the Eagles were once driven to stab him with their steely talons. But they just couldn’t kill the Don.

There’s always the even stupider The Ataris cover of that megahit, which I will now submit as my entry:
“Out on the road today, I saw a Black Flag sticker on a Cadillac.”
There’s no irony in a Black Flag sticker, in fact, if the Cadillac in question is a mid-70’s Coup deVille convertible, it makes perfect sense for punk rock band stickers to be all over the bumper.

OK, I forgot about travel plans, and underestimated how many people who jump in on this. And, it seems to have slowed.
So we’ll go straight to a poll. I’ve tried to cat all the entries, leaving off one or two that we entire stanzas. If I’ve missed one I apologize. Voting goes through Monday. You can vote for up to three entries in each. Also, go back and throw the “likes” as you will.

Okay, since it seems my entry was arbitrarily banned for excessive awesomeness, I’ll just put this here to prove I’m not a one-trick pony.
Pancho was a bandit, boys, his horse was fast as polished steel
He wore his gun outside his pants for all the honest world to feel
– Townes Van Zandt, Pancho and Lefty
No need to include in the poll. It was an honour just to be allowed to participate.

I’m tempted to flag this offensive slight; the Texas Troubadour never wrote a bad lyric in his life.
His lyrics are “yum, yum, yummy
And I know it’s doing good things to my tum, tum…, tummy”
(from Talking Thunderbird Blues)

Not bad, so I apologize, just strange and enigmatic. Maybe it’s not a good fit for this game. I don’t know a lot about Van Zandt (I thought the Texas Troubadour was Ernest Tubb 
) but I really like the song, particularly in the Emmylou Harris version, which is the first one I heard.
I think Ohio Express may have grounds for a lawsuit.
"Yummy yummy yummy I got love in my tummy
And I feel like loving you."
Actually this was on the short list for my entry.
