lalala
Ears-covered vocal deflection
Lalala represents a nonsense syllable sequence people vocalize when singing without words, humming along to music, or deliberately tuning something out.
It often suggests carefree dismissal or playful avoidance: She just went lalala and ignored everything I said.
The repetition can extend indefinitely depending on the singer's mood or the length of the melody being approximated.
