We all know that, when composers write theme tunes for movies and TV shows, they sometimes use imaginary lyrics to help them write the tune. That in mind, what lyrics do you hear in your head when you hear famous theme tunes? Right here is where you can share your thoughts with the world.

For instance, whenever I hear the Star Wars theme tune; in my head, I'm hearing the words:
Star Wars! Yes, it's the Star Wars! Yes, it's the Star Wars! Ye-es it is!

Mine is:
Star Wars! S-S-S-Star Wars! S-S-S-Star Wars! S-S-S-Star!
I have one for the "Love Theme" too, but I can't remember how it goes exactly right now.

I often fit profanities to such tunes. But that's a conscious act rather than a spontaneous one.

I used to singing something to the theme to Game of Thrones.
Something about whimbrels.
Yes!
Whimbrels, little whimbrels, little whimbrels, little whimbrels Whimbrels, little whimbrels, little whimbrels, little whimbrels Whimbrels, little whimbrels, little whimbrels, little whimbrels Whimbrels, little whimbrels, little whimbrels, little whimbrels Whimbrels, little whimbrels, little whimbrels, little whimbrels...

I like to sing the theme tune but just the opening bit, faster and faster, and imagine the little towers spinning round faster and faster till they fall off the map, and you hear a thud and muffled swearing.

I was going to create a thread on strange associations.
Such as Tuesdays = brown leather handbags.
As to the question, no, I don’t imagine words to pieces of music without.
