On a similar theme, Simon & Garfunkel's The Sound Of Silence (with no response from the other side).
When the call is finally answered, the person who has waited for an interminable lifetime could play Verdi's Dies Irae very loudly back to the respondent. Or Frankee's F.U.R.B. (F**k U Right Back)

Any idiot can deal with a crisis. It takes a genius to cope with everyday life.

I have, in all seriousness, been confronted with Blondie's "Hangin' on the telephone" whilst on hold. Credit where it's due, at least they had a sense of humour.
On another occasion I was so wound up by the on-hold music that when I finally got through I complained endlessly about how crap the music was. I think the parting comment from me was "stick to bl**dy Greensleaves", and at the other end it was "I'll be sure to pass on your comments aboot that". If we don't make a fuss, the situation will never improve...
