Name that funk-sounding song...with very few lyrics...

What is this song I keep hearing (at restaurants, on TV, movies, etc.)? I don't think it's new, but you never know. It has very few words, and the ones I do hear sound like "good time" or "good thing" - maybe even "fun time". The pronunciation is stretched out, and it might have a cowbell. It's sort of a '70s "disco" or "funk" sound. *Please read the extended explanation for what I know it is NOT.

It is *NOT*:

"Good Times" by Chic
"Good Time" by Owl City and Carly Rae Jepsen
"Good Times, Bad Times" by Led Zeppelin (doesn't even sound remotely similar)

If anything, it reminds me of "Love Rollercoaster".

Well, the new Daft Punk + Pharrell song is everywhere and meets a few of your criteria - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NV6Rdv1a3I

Jacob G beat me to it. I'll just sit here and wait for the good fun to start.

Response by poster: It is indeed "Blurred Lines"!

(If you heard cowbell, it might have been George Barnett's cover of Get Lucky. Link goes to the 21 second point with visual evidence.)

On preview: ah, well. They're all ridiculously infectious anyway.
