My child won't stop singing the "Lava Chicken" song from the Minecraft movie. How do I go on living?
-
Ooh mamacita, now you’re ringin’ the bell!
Crispy and juicy, now you're havin' a snack

Mine has largely gotten over the lava chicken phase, and has moved on to the next incredibly annoying barely sentient compulsion.
Last I checked it was the intro to Ducktales. Have you shown them that? It's so ruinously catchy it may never leave your mind.
That song never left my head and its been living rent free up there since I was a kid
-
Ok Lemmings look, I love life and I love my family, so I'd hate to have to blow my fucking brains out. So what's another strategy for tuning out this incessant lava chicken?
Alternatively, does anyone have a time machine and enough money to convince Jack Black to not do the Minecraft movie?
Try switching to Parry Grip, some of it is OK and the catalogue is big enough they don't really get stuck.
And just to show solidarity the other day my kid just kept 'teenage mutant ninja turtles'ing for what felt like a half hour without a single 'heroes in a half shell' to round it off.

This thread is just switching me around from one earworm to another

Just get an even worse song stuck in your head, like this one: https://youtu.be/lrPncVUR_3Y

Sing it back to them

Introduce them to the Chicken Banana song.

Genuine question - why is that deemed a good answer? I'd expect an actual solution for a child to be more apropriate than humiliating an adult later in life. Like the suggestions telling to start singing it yourself, wrongly, seem much more effective and appropriate to me.
Full disclosure tho: Not a parent and no plans to ever be one
I may also have played dirty with the Rocky Horror reference

Tom Cardy, one of the best musical comedians of our age. He has many songs with extremely catchy lines that are actually funny while also being tolerable to hear many times over. There is a definite need for a language warning if you are not good with swearing, but his Lord of the Rings one is amazing.

I don't wanna sound old here, but I finally watched that thing a couple days ago and boy did I feel my age there. Clearly I've lived long enough that a whole movie failed to connect with me on any level. I mean it has Jack Black in it and I adore him. I guess what I'm saying is I have no idea how to fix your kid because they're a different people now.
However , the classic old group defense against young slang is taking it up and enthusiastically using it wrong. So enjoy your hot poultry song.
I don't wanna sound old here...
I got bad news for you, that's basically all we're doing right now.

Good year for animation, '87.

Ok, I've officially employed this method, mixing it with some other suggestions in the thread.
Cha-cha-cha-lava,
La-la-la-chicken!
Oooh chicken jockey
It's a chicken jockey!
Woooon-derboy!
I did get a satisfying "no dad, that's not how it goes", but then it resulted in him singing it a few more times... I think I'll just keep it up until it's clear to him he's being trolled, then we'll see what happens.

Naughty of nice is great too, and HYCYBH is amazing

Idk about kids singing HYCYBH...
I could imagine them using it on a teacher in class.
Teacher: "... Where is my board eraser"
Child: "HYCYBH?"
Teacher: Calls parents. -
