Does anyone else ever mentally hum a tune during swim practices and/or races? My personal favorite, when I am trying to summon energy from my exhausted body, is the 1812 Overture--I try to time it so the cannons start firing towards the latter part of the race.
I'd be interested to hear what goes through other peoples' minds as they swim, musical or otherwise.

Oh, I can remember more of it than that: "On Saturday night they need some excitement/Jane gets right and the monkey gets tight and their voices unite in the pale moonlight and it sounds all right/Yeah, it's dynamite/Let's hear it/Right n-n-n-n-n-ow!"
Then Jane starts wailing "Bay-bay" while Tarzan yodels and the monkey makes, well, monkey sounds.
I am embarrassed to admit that this song is permanently embedded in my brain. Along with the lyrics to another Ray Stevens classic, "The Streak" ("Don't look Ethel!").
