(CNN)Coronavirus cases are climbing in the US, but health officials maintain one of the best ways to prevent it from spreading is by washing your hands.
Simple enough, right? Wrong.
There's a proper way to do it. And it doesn't include rinsing your hands for a moment and a half, wiping leftover droplets on your jeans and then calling it a day.
Instructions from the CDC say you should be lathering soap on your hands for at least 20 seconds. To help you keep track of time, the agency suggests you hum the "Happy Birthday" song twice.
But no one wants that in their head if it's not a special occasion. So instead, we compiled a list of songs with a tune from each decade to help you jam out as you're scrubbing off the germs.
And for these songs, there's no need to just hum.
The 50s: 'Jailhouse Rock' by Elvis Presley
The warden threw a party in the county jail
The prison band was there and they began to wail
The band was jumpin' and the joint began to swing

Let's rock everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
The 60s: 'My Girl' by The Temptations
I've got sunshine on a cloudy day
When it's cold outside I've got the month of May

Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl)
