Expose him to Baby Shark.
Then the Badgers song.
Lather, rinse, repeat until he latches onto a song you can tolerate.
My partner and I used to switch between The Electric Slide and The Hustle as our earworms, so one day we mixed them together because it's the same tune. Now THAT is constantly stuck in our heads
All I'm saying is be careful with this approach for you may make a worse monster
Try switching to Parry Grip, some of it is OK and the catalogue is big enough they don't really get stuck.
And just to show solidarity the other day my kid just kept 'teenage mutant ninja turtles'ing for what felt like a half hour without a single 'heroes in a half shell' to round it off.
Wait. Before you blow your brain out have you considered surgical removal of your ears?
Not the answer you're looking for, but this reminded me of a short video I saw a long time ago where it was some kids being obnoxious ( as they're known for ) on a train and this man snaps and screams, in Chinese, "Shut up! I wanna die!" because of how tired he was.
Cannot find the clip when I search for it, but I think it's pretty funny. Nor do I remember where I saw it, but that specific little video thing has absolutely stuck with me.l ever since I saw it.
Sue him. Or record him, upload to Youtube and threaten to copyright strike him.
- Ignore it, if there’s no reaction the novelty will wear off
- sing along, but change the words to something even more stupid so that the kid doesn’t like the song any more (I don’t know the song and won’t look it up, but I’m sure you can figure it out)
put some headphones on, blast some music to drown it out
Honestly, this is probably the answer.
"SORRY KID, I CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER MY MUSIC. WHAT? IT'S CALLED RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE, YEAH YOU'D LOVE IT. WHAT? NO, NOT TILL YOU'RE OLDER"
Loop this and tell them that Frank is the best entertainer of all time
There's way worse songs this could be happening with...

Lava chicken is quite groovy actually, tasty. You're in luck.
That jingle does suck butt.
Play him the meow mix song. It's the alpha predator of ear worms.
This thread is just switching me around from one earworm to another
