Rama lama lama ke ding a de dinga a dong

How’s that for your pop culture reference of the day?

For the uninitiated, these lines come from the lyrics of “We go together” from the OST of Grease…

Going…

We go together like
rama lama lama
ke ding a de dinga a dong
remembered for ever like
shoo bop shoo wadda wadda yipitty boom de boom

A lifetime ago, it was just rubbishy lyrics that are fun to memorise PURELY for the diabolical masterplan of making a general ass of yourself by annoying people with nonstop (and offkey) renditions of said song.

But as you grow older, these lyrics actually start to make sense. Yes, I do realize I sound like I am going crazy cause the best part of the song includes stuff like

We’re one of a kind
Like dip di-dip di-dip
Doo-bop a doo-bee doo
Our names are signed
Boog-e-dy boog-e-dy boog-e-dy
boog-e-dy
Shoo-by doo-wop she-bop
Chang chang chang-it-ty chang
shoo-bop

That just cannot be thought of by ANY sane person that is not on some form of mind destroying and possibly illegal substance.

But as you grow older,you might, like me begin to realize how wonderfully rubbishy and crazily nonsensical love can be when 2 people can sit half the world away, JUST laughing at nothing in particular for minutes on end…

And that can be the most mind destroying substance of them all.
