That's exactly what I thought, Mrs Ed.

When we were kids, Mum would do the washing up and my sister and I shared the drying up. Onerous chore and we'd do everything in our power to get out of it. So we'd sing "Haji Baba" endlessly, hoping Mum would send us packing because we knew she hated that song. Using reverse psychology, she reassured us that she really loved that song and encouraged us to sing it some more. We promptly shut up. Since then, though, both my sister and I have had that %#*$@# song randomly running through our respective heads and each of hate it more than Mum ever could have. Hoisted by our own petards.
