The only "Yummy, Yummy, "Yummy" I know of was actually titled "...Yummy, I 
Got Love In My Tummy"
and was part of a dubious rock genre known as "Bubblegum" (named after the 
favourite treat of its rather-
young fans...?!)!! Keep in mind that EVERY musical genre has its 
embarrassments; the only possible use
for "Bubblegum" music would be as a soundtrack for a parody! Even the "Swing 
Era" gave us "Mairzy
Doats" and "Three Little Fishies"...?!
