This is when a character gets on another character's nerves, usually by talking nonstop, and the other character covers his ears and starts singing so he can't hear him. The person doing this will almost always either start singing "The Star-Spangled Banner", or else just go "La-la-la". This is sometimes done (in-universe or in real life) to avoid hearing a Spoiler, something squicky, or anything else that a character feels he or she would be better off not hearing. Usually goes hand-in-hand with Too Much Information. Compare I Can't Hear You (outside noises disrupt a conversation), Headphones Equal Isolation (headphones block outside sounds), and Fake Static (pretending that a remote communications channel is failing). |

In Tales of Monkey Island Episode 1: Launch of the Screaming Narwhal, Guybrush does this when he is talking the Voodoo Lady. To avoid her very long talking, Guybrush plugs his ears and says, "La-la-la-la! Not listening!" This mutes the Voodoo Lady's voice before Guybrush unplugs his ears, just in time to hear the rest of the Voodoo Lady's talking. | |

The Simpsons: On the season nine episode "Simpson Tide", the Naval Reserve recruiter does this when Homer tries to ask him about a question on the application that got blocked out about being a homosexual, which, if asked, would get the recruiter sent to jail for discrimination. In the sixth-season episode "Bart's Girlfriend", Reverend Lovejoy's rebellious daughter Jessica admits responsibility for stealing money from the church collection plate, a crime initially pinned on Bart. When she claims she was crying out for attention, the reverend covers his ears and sings "Bringing in the Sheaves" as he runs out of the church with Jessica trailing behind. In Season 21's "Bart Gets a Z", Principal Skinner orders the students to stick their fingers in their ears and go "la la la" while the new substitute teacher is drunk and shouting about how alcohol is a great way to get rid of sadness and other similar things. |

In Final Fantasy VII: Machinabridged, Tifa was telling Cloud very bluntly and explicitly how she was going to get top secret information out of Don Corneo. Aerith immediately walks away, covering her ears and singing, "LALALALALA! MOOGLES MOOGLES MOOGLES MOOGLLLESSSS!!" | |

Elements of Cringe: Used by Celestia to drown out an explanation of what the titular artifacts could be, due to her belief that nothing so stupid could exist. This clip would later be included in the Title Montage at the beginning of PONIES The Anthology 6, partially as a nod to Piemations working on both. | |

In Dr. Dolittle, Dr. Dolittle is annoyed by the guinea pig Rodney's constant chatter during a car trip, telling him that if he says one more word, then he's going to leave him outside with the squirrels and see how much talking he does then. Rodney tells him that's fine, that he'll sing, and starts singing Bob Dylan's "Blowin' in the Wind," loud and off-key. Dr. Dolittle responds in turn by blasting the song "Rock Steady" on the car radio and singing along with it. | |

To avoid her very long talking, Guybrush plugs his ears and says, "La-la-la-la! Not listening!" This mutes the Voodoo Lady's voice before Guybrush unplugs his ears, just in time to hear the rest of the Voodoo Lady's talking. In The Curse of Monkey Island, if you don't want to hear LeChuck's explanation of past events, one of the options is for Guybrush to turn his back to him, cover his ears and shout "Lalala, I can't hear you, lalalala". |

A particularly heartbreaking example occurs in Fun Home when Alison covers her ears and loudly sings the opening theme to her favorite show, in a desperate attempt to block out the sound of her parents having a profanity-laden argument in the next room.

Ender's Shadow: In one of the books, Peter tells Petra that she's arguing like a nine-year-old, and that she might as well put her fingers in her ears and say "La la la, I can't hear you." Of course, she promptly does. | |

Histeria!: "Heroes of Truth and Justice" features a sketch involving Rosa Parks being told to move to the back of the bus...where nearly everyone from the Kid Chorus is being rowdy in general, especially Loud Kiddington who's singing "99 Bottle of Root Beer on the Wall" at the top of his lungs. Charity Bazaar apparently doesn't like that song at all; she initially tells him to be quiet, but causes him to forget where he was (55 bottles), forcing him to start over. Loud later hits 27 bottles in his song while Charity begrudgingly tolerates it by doing this trope. | |

When G'Kar objects to the Centauri Emperor's upcoming visit to Babylon 5, Sheridan sarcastically tells him that if he can't deal with it he should put his fingers in his ears and hum really loud until it's over. | |

Duck Guy in Don't Hug Me I'm Scared notes that The Healthy Band's extremely faulty explanation on how the digestive system works makes no sense. They ignore him and continue to sing their health song with greater volume. | |

During the Well There's Your Problem episode on the Texas City Disaster, the crew begin talking about how the Disaster was caused by an insecure loading dock for Ammonium Nitrate. Alice jokes about how having a Muslim talk openly about explosives is probably going to get her visited by some intelligence agency or another and starts going "LA LA LA!" whenever Justin or Liam talk about where to find Ammonium Nitrate and how it can potentially go from fertilizer form to potentially becoming explosive. | |

In The Rescuers Down Under, Frank the frill-necked lizard covers his ears and sings "Waltzing Matilda" when Krebbs the koala starts describing what the poacher is going to do to them. Then Frank uncovers his ears to see if Krebs is done, only for Krebbs to just now finish his sentence, to Frank's horror. | |
