One courtesy of my girlfriend's dad
He wanders around singing to himself all the time, really really loudly becasue he is deaf. One time he was giving a lift to someone who had recently been left by his wife and for reasons known only to himself he burst into "I wonder who's kissing her now". He only realised what he was doing after he got to the end of the verse:
"If you want to feel wretched, lonely, and blue
Just imagine the girl you love best
In the arms of some fellow who's stealing a kiss
From the lips you once fondly pressed"
At which point he hastily stopped singing the words but carried on going "Tra la la la la laaa laaa de daaaa hmmm hmmm mmmm mm mmmmmmmm" instead, as the bloke sat there next to him snivelling.
