At first a complete head scratcher because I was using my mad meta decoding skills and not seeing any secret passageways. In other words working too hard for a meta with an easy rating. Then I googled and there it was. I remember the song but not the lyrics that apply… cute idea!

I had the same feeling, and the same post-puzzle earworm. I had to look in about six or seven places but I finally found it. I put it in Crosshare comments so as not to spoil.

Thank you!! Good to know I’m not crazy. (No comments from the peanut gallery on that subject, please:)

Fini.

Unboxed (which is also a compilation album by Sammy Hagar, which is totally unrelated to the meta)

I have definitely left the box
I now have to go to detox
To solve this fine puzzle
I first had to guzzle
Each theme answer on the rocks.

Thanks for a firecracker of a puzzle WIll

(Edited to fit the metre of a good limerick - with which this should not of course be confused)

This was not "easy" for a 63 year old! Out of the box with a nudge from @BarbaraK, who is better at Google search than I am!

Took me a minute (and a google search) but now the song's stuck in my head. Good one!

Got this earworm after the first two theme entries. Nice.
