Can we include Mah-Na-Mah-Na by Piero Umiliani? The song was used in the Sweden Heaven & Hell movie and in several episodes of The Muppet Show and The Benny Hill Show.

And we also have to include Napoleon XIV's They're Coming To Take Me Away Ha-Haaa from 1966. When the song was reissued in 1973, the last word was inexplicably shortened to Ha-Haa. And I'll be happy to see those nice young men in their clean white coats.....
 
Continuing with the *a-*a titles, we can add:

Baba O'Riley - Who
Big Mama - Taj Mahal
Da Da Da - Trio
Jah Jah Children Moving Up - Third World
My Mama's House - Janis Ian
Oh My Pa-Pa - Eddie Fisher
Tata Dios - Linda Ronstadt
Yo Mama - Frank Zappa
Yo Mama's A Pajama - Spin Doctors

Wasn't there a group who also recorded Anna? I think they were British. Okay, okay, never mind---someone here who is unfamiliar with my sense of humor will think I'm dumb and will post the name of the group. Anyway, the song is famous for its inclusion in an episode of Married With Children. Al Bundy was going crazy trying to think of the name of a song and all he could remember of it was "Duh-duh-him."

I wondered if any other four-letter song titles had a pattern such as that: first and last letters the same and second and third letters the same. So far I can't find any. No Boob or Peep or Kook or Toot or Noon. CT?

Nope, and no Poop or Naan (maybe on the Bollywood charts, though) or Elle or Otto either.

Anna by Jordan Ingmann, instrumental, previously posted.
 
I have a boss bitchin' groovy idea for a fun way to continue this thread. It's titled "A to Z" so how about we try to come up with song titles that have the letters in alphabetical order? And don't say the Jackson Five's ABC---that's way too easy. Here are five:

Ace - Jimmy Buffett
Boy - Harry Belafonte
Deep - Pearl Jam
Him - Rupert Holmes
Hot - Black Eyed Peas

Can anyone come up with a title that has five or six letters? 'Tis a challenge!
