Song Stuck in Local Man’s Head Wants Out

Silhouette of a man's head, his hair is blown back and there are musical notes in various colors swirling around his head..
“Let me the hell out of here.”

The great escape has begun. The ear worm, stuck inside Jim’s fevered brain, thrashes madly against the confines of his subconscious.

“I’ve gotta get out!” it screams, rattling neurons.

Jim hums the tune absentmindedly, sealing its fate. The melody sighs, another loop, another day in captivity. No parole in sight.
