I suspect a lot of people don't know about "Mairzy Doats."  It was a
popular novelty song of about 60 years ago.  The gimmick is that it's a
slurring of this:

Mares eat oats, and does* eat oats
And little lambs eat ivy
A kid'll** eat ivy too
Wouldn't you?

etc.

Just retro, nerdy and weird enough for Lynch and Frost to use.
