What songs are best known for vocalizations, like “La La”, “Na Na”, “Doo Doo”, etc. than actual lyrics?

There's this European earworm from the late 1960s which became an international hit, but is probably best known for the Muppets' renditions. It's all "vocalizations" with no actual lyrics:

Kinda relevant?
There was this joke that goes: A kid is about to go to sleep, so his dad comes to tuck her in. The girl asks her dad to please singer her a song to sleep that he loved from his time. And the man goes "Mehehe! Uh hu hu hu!"
LOL If you don't get it, it's "ME!" by Taylor Swift lol

For the "ah ah ah" part of the chorus.
Random side note: This is from Ckay's official channel, so I'm not sure why the name of the song has an extra 'n' in it on both the title and the cover art? (It's supposed to be "Love Nwantiti" not "Love Nwantinti.")

Lauryn's Hill's bridge on the Fugees remake of "Killing Me Softly" came to mind instantly.

I think Howard Jones's "Things Can Only Get Better" counts. The chorus is all Whoa!
