I love that Rockapella song I memorized called "Capital," written for the Carmen Sandiago songs tape. It's a stupid tape, but I liked it back when I got it in '96, when I was smaller.
Without including the middle lyrics, the capitals go,
"Albany, Atlanta, Tallahassee, Oklahoma City, Trenton, Nashville, Condord, Dover, Little Rock, Des Moines, Sacramento-Olympia, Montpelier, Jackson, Carson City, Jueno, Denver, Raleigh, Austin, Boston, Capital!
Skipping middle lyrics...
Providence, Topeka, Santa Fe, Indi-Annapolis, Saint Paul, Jefferson City, Honolulu, Baton Rouge, Harrisburg, Columbi-Augusta, Phoenix, Salt Lake City, Salem, Madison, Cheyenne, I'm thinkin' Lincoln! Capital!!
Skipping middle lyrics...
Bismark! Boi-boi-boise, Springfield! Frankfurt! Richmond! Co-columbus. Charleston! Helena! Capital, Lancing! Hartford, Montgomery!!! Skipping last lyrics..."
Then there's finally Pierre which is mentioned on the cover as, "Pierre! Pierre! We forgot Pierre!!" I can't believe I memorized it. I guess I'm a geek.

Children, this is what happens to hockey players, druggies, and Hillary Clinton.
Rope. Tree. Hillary. Some assembly required.
