    You can sing most Emily Dickens poetry to the Pokémon theme song too.

    Also this gem:

    (To the power rangers theme) Go, go ninja turtles! Teenage mutant ninja turtles!

    There's tons of things like that, they're all great xD

    You're talking about "common metre", and it also includes Amazing Grace, the Gilligan's Island theme, House of the Rising Sun, Casey at the Bat, and the Lay of Nimrodel among many others.

    You can swap any of the tunes and lyrics and they more or less work. One of my favorite music trivia things.
