Old Grey Whistle Test version, sadly missing the great Phil Rizzuto play-by-play.

No bias against classical music intended. If you knew all the notes to Beethoven's 5th, please do count that.

↓ first song on the radio, that is

 

[MontyVeda]

er... Happy Birthday.

 

[yello]

I doubt I know all the words to any song. I know some (short) poems though!

I guess the closest would be Madness's ''Night Boat To Cairo'

 

[HertzvanRental]

Teddy Bears Picnic!!!

 

[Mrs M]

Nelly the Elephant

 

[dan_bo]

Bobby and Betty go to the Moon.

 

[Slioch]

To my eternal shame, mine was "Ernie, the fastest milkman in the West"

 

[midlife]

Crikey, it was Ernie for me too

Shaun

 

[Brandane]

 

[TVC]

Incy Wincy Spider.

 

[Vapin' Joe]

"You're gonna get your f*ckin' heads kicked in".

(Learnt on the terraces at Upton Park).

 

[Levo-Lon]

Man who shot liberty vallance..gene pitney

[Simontm]

"You're gonna get your f*ckin' heads kicked in".

(Learnt on the terraces at Upton Park).

OP fail, but OK, I'll go with it. Can't remember the literal first song I knew all the words to though. Will have to settle for this, from a series meant to edumacate American youth:

"You're gonna get your f*ckin' heads kicked in".

Had this one down pretty well too:

I later sought better sources for my history lessons, but they weren't as catchy.

 

[Berk on a Bike]

"You're gonna get your f*ckin' heads kicked in".

(Learnt on the terraces at Upton Park).

How does that one go again...?
