I'm in Enterprise IT, so mine would be the chorus from Bob Dylan's "Everything is Broken.".
It was my work phone ringtone when I still had a work phone
The first 2-3 seconds of the Cowboy Bebop theme..
Second choice: ~0:48 to about 1:00 of Theme for Jetsetters by The Tikiyaki Orchestra (assuming a fade out near the end)
Third choice: Acapella version of the Pokemon Red Rival Appears music for about 14 seconds. People in the room find themselves disoriented and confused, wondering why on earth they started singing when I walked in.
The stab scene from psycho.
One-Winged Angel. Just the intro, before the Latin. Specifically this version.
The best final boss music to a video game was 29 years ago and has not been topped since. Of course, with the rise of PlayStation and disc-based games (ironically, where Final Fantasy 7 was released and in which form), games became more about the journey than that final fight. There were still "last boss fights," but they became less the focus and more about the end of the journey. But after beating Sephiroth for the first time, and he sprouts a wing (just the one!) and this song kicks in, and the real fight begins... that's when you knew you were in some shit. Especially if you reached max level and Sephiroth took literally an hour to beat (I think this was an early anti-cheat thing).
Yakkety Sax
That Gladiator's entrance song that morphed into the circus-looney song.
Wii menu music
4′33″
Anyone who doesn’t pick this will quickly be insane, and have no friends. I walk through a lot of doorways in a day.
At first I was thinking of 45:33 from lcd sound system. But the John Cage background noise is a much better choice.
It does contain a sample of 4'33" if you listen carefully
Your wish is granted.
"Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me!"
"Hi there. What can I do for you?"
You could also do the Steve Austin “Won’t Do What You Tell Me”. Glass shatters
It's been a long road, gettin' from there to here.
You sir, are an evil person. May all your streaming services only play "Section 31" from now until the end of time.
Never gonna
Wilhelm Scream
And his name is John Cena!
I just can't see it.
The very first part of Locke's Theme by Sean Schafianski (from Final Fantasy 6)
I like Omen, but it's not as good if a walk in song. Great soundtrack top to bottom though.
Realistically, that would get annoying pretty fast and I'd soon learn to hate any song I chose. So I'd pick 4′33″, which is four minutes and 33 seconds of silence.
But otherwise I'd pick "One Bad Tank", from the video game Left4Dead2. It's the song that plays when the boss enemy enters a particular map.

Picture it... Henry Mancini - Baby Elephant Walk starts playing. You walk in. Double finger-guns. Wry smile. A wink for every person in the room.
They might question why you're wearing a mascot costume to the formal, but pop off king.
Baby shark
Eye of the tiger 😆
I Touch Myself
Baby shark. So I stop getting invited places.
Guile’s theme, considering my job.
Anything by Black Flag with Henry Rollins
Obviously the opening "Heeeeere we are!" from Queen's "Princes of the Universe"
There can be only one.
The clip used for Dramatic Chipmunk.
From "Young Frankenstein", by the way. I couldn't resist finding out where that came from. It's the scene where they first arrive at the castle.

The bagpipe ditty the door plays in the SNL "All Things Scottish" skit. Wonderfully annoying.
Darth Vader's imperial march. It's also my ringtone...and does play when I enter a room occasionally...if I get a phone call as I enter.
Mine would have to be Oops I Did It Again, it'd just be the start of the chorus. I think that would nearly always fit the situation.
