Reply to comment by Fluffy_Little_Fox in Holy shit is “Tom’s Diner” by Suzanne Vega & DNA so godamn good. by treeillusion
In an audio physics course we got to use this song while we learned how to create sound effects and apply them to the song through programming and math. Needless to say we all became mad having to listen to the song on repeat but adjusted with different effects. Here we are years later and if someone in class starts to sing "I'm sitting in the morning..." the whole class joins in with, "at the diner on the corner" haha.

I am sitting on the sofa.
There's a TV in the corner.
I am watching Major Nelson.
He is played by Larry Hagman.
And he found a little bottle.
And then out popped Barbara Eden.
She couldn't show her belly button.
All she did was blink.

Duh-Dut -- Duh-Dah.
Dut-Dut, D'Dut Dat.
Duh-Dah.
Dut-Dut, D'Dut Dat.
Duh-Dah.
Dut-Dut, D'Dut Dat. Dat.
D'Duh-Dut-Dut -- Dat.

Tony Nelson works at NASA.
With suspicious Dr. Bellows.
And there's also Roger Healy.
Who would become Howard Borden.
And Jeannie always means well.
But they get in wacky trouble.
She folds her arms and blinks her eyes.
It's kind of like Bewitched.

Duh-Dut -- Duh-Dah.
Dut-Dut, D'Dut Dat.
Duh-Dah.
Dut-Dut, D'Dut Dat.
Duh-Dah.
Dut-Dut, D'Dut Dat. Dat.
D'Duh-Dut-Dut -- Dat.

This is on a compilation called Tom's Album which Suzanne produced. A bunch of different versions and covers of the tune. Came out in 1991 on A&M.

That made me so very happy - thank you for sharing. And special respect for them making this a full 2:20 song.
