Most people (at least people our age) won't have any idea what this is---but they still immediately recognize it when they hear it.  According to Wikipedia the song was used in more than 40 classic Warner Brother cartoons.

 I found a CD in Goodwill about a year ago with classic TV theme songs. Powerhouse was on there and now I know what it's from!  TeddyR

I know embedding is disabled, but it's still great, so click and watch it on YouTube - you'll hear THAT tune.  Again and again... My name is Elmer J. Fudd, millionaire, I own a mansion and a yacht... again... My name is Elmer J. Fudd, millionaire, I own a mansion and a yacht....

I still watch a complicated mechanical process (our packaging machines at work for example)and the song goes through my head.

THE Cartoon music! Cheers
Heard an album of Scott's music, and this was still my fav. Though 'Dinner music for a pack of hungry cannibels' is still s good one.
Oh, and find the 'Animaniacs in the toy store' version. It lives up to the classic.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
