"I'm Blue (The Gong-Gong Song)"
The Nonsensical Lyrics: I'm blue-oo-oo oo-oo, doo-be-doo-be-doo-be-doo.
Gong gong gong gong gong gong, gong-gong-gong-gong-yeah. Why They're Nonsensical: Yeah, just fill up some lines with repetitious scat syllables and stuff like that; what does it even mean? A gong is a Southeast Asian percussion instrument which is typically struck with a mallet, but no such instrument is even used in this particular track. Instead, they just say that word ten times in succession so it sounds like either scat or nonsense syllables. Whatever.
