Cellino and Barnes

Did you ever wake up with A tune in your head That, despite your best efforts, You just cannot shed? Well, it’s happened to me And I really can’t take it For, try as I might, I just can’t seem to shake it. The worst of it is, It’s a jingle, you see, And it’s from a commercial I’ve seen on TV. Two lawyers on screen Vow to get you big bucks If you’re injured by taxis Or autos or trucks. Their ditty is catchy – No need for debates – And their phone number’s 800 Followed by 8’s. They seem like nice guys So I hate to complain But I wish that their song Would bail out of my brain! (You can Google "Cellino and Barnes" to hear the tune, but be warned - it won't leave you!)
