The Song That Gets On Everybody's Nerves
This song is very similar to "The Song that Never Ends." This variation is considered to be much more annoying as it constantly reminds whoever is listening that it will get on their nerves. This song is usually sung by children trying to annoy an adult present at the time, more often than not during long trips or in a public area (the beach, the park, etc.).
Sung to the tune of either "Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush" or "The Battle Hymn of the Republic"

Famous quotes containing the words song and/or nerves:
“I am the rose of Sharon, and the lily of the valleys.”
—Bible: Hebrew The Song of Solomon (l. II, 1)
“I should consent to breed under pressure, if I were convinced in any way of the reasonableness of reproducing the species. But my nerves and the nerves of any woman I could live with three months, would produce only a victim ... lacking in impulse, a mere bundle of discriminations. If I were wealthy I might subsidize a stud of young peasants, or a tribal group in Tahiti.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
