From Daniel Pinkwater's "Alan Mendelsohn, the Boy from Mars" (Dutton, 1982):
Our heroes have mastered Mind Control, and are messing with the principal of their high school, Bat Masterson High, by compelling him to sing the following morning announcements over the PA system:
GOOD MORN--WHEN THE SURF'S UP IN OLD CALIFORNIA, THERE'S JUST OLD PAINT AND ME. JUST A BOY AND HIS HORSE ON A SURFBOARD, WHERE THE WIND AND THE WAVES ARE FREE. SURFIN', SURFIN', SURFIN' WITH MY HORSE, SURFIN', SURFIN' WITH MY HORSE, DOO WAH, DOO WAH.
I WILL NOW GIVE THE CORRECT TIME. CUCKOO--CUCKOO--CUCKOO--CUCKOO--CUCKOO--CUCKOO--CUCKOO--CUCKOO--CUCKOO.
