“I had a pen. There was an apple on the table. I poked the apple with my pen. Everyone was laughing. There was also a can of pineapples. Since we have an apple, so let’s go with the pineapple too.”

And that was how the most annoyingly catchy song ever about sticking pens into apples and pineapples – PPAP, also known as Pen-Pineapple-Apple-Pen – was born.
