We've all been there...You have a crappy song stuck in your head. What do you do!?

I usually opt for listening to the song. This is especially true for awesome songs like the Meow Mix jingle.

What about you?

Since I only get good songs stuck in my head, I usually just listen to them...

I've had the same tune in my head for over ten years and I don't even know what it's from.

Tom's Diner, the Suzanne Vega song remixed by D.N.A. can dislodge any other earworm from my head.

Depends on the song. Take the song currently stuck in my head, for example. When I Grow Up by the Pus$ycat Dolls. So, naturally, there is a fair chance I will kill myself sometime in the next hour.

What if that song has no lyrics? You can't sing a total of 0 lyrics.

Usually annoying songs don't get stuck in my head. But if anything, I listen to it more and even sing along, to purge myself.

Listen to it repeatedly, in fact, that's what I'm doing right now.

I'd sing it in my head and out loud if I feel like it, mostly to the cats. And I sing to them a lot.

I just listen to it until I can't stand it anymore... And then I forget about it for a long time. It's great!

Listen/Sing repeatedly until my children are begging me to stop. Lately it's been the Cee Lo Green F$&k You so I have resorted to singing the G rated version.

Listen to another song that isn't as catchy, so that it will get the old song out of my head and the new song won't be catchy enough to stick.

If the song is bad, I'll stop myself the moment I catch myself singing it. Or I'll sing the part I hate, just to remind myself of why I hate it, then stop.

Listen to it repeatedly for the next couple hours, unless I happen to be at home alone. Then I belt it full volume.

Just recently I had Thats Amore stuck in my head. I sung it until I just forgot about it.
