I guess it's now against the law to sing while shopping in a grocery store.

I was told to "please leave the store, sir".

I wasn't even singing this song THAT loudly.

Uptight losers.

I was singing What’s New, Pussycat when the manager asked WTF, and I told him I suffered from an affliction that compelled me to sing Tom Jones songs. ‘Is that common?’, he asked. I told him, ‘It’s Not Unusual.’

Do you gyrate your hips while singing Tom Jones?

Because if you don't gyrate your hips, it's not really considered to be singing.

Myself included.
When I "sing," dogs in the neighboring counties begin to howl.

I mostly sing a few lines...

I'd rather be naked but I wear a mask
I do it to be polite, it's not a hard task
I'd rather be naked
I'd rather be naked
I'd rather be naked, but I wear a mask.
It's not a hard task!

No one's ever commented about it or asked me to leave, but the looks I get are interesting.
You have my permission to sing those words in the store. Or not. Lol
