Well I was in high school when that was popular.   Should it be our 
satellites theme song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZThquH5t0ow 

Fun topic for a slow afternoon.  We really need a big bird (heo).

Yes, wikipedia does: 1963
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surfin_Bird

Later, in '80's this was popularized by the soundtrack of
Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket, from where i remember it
but never thought how suitable this would be as a theme
song for sat ops.

I remember that song from the early sixty's. There was a show on that had a
mad scientist clown type guy called Glue Arty. That was kind of his theme
song when he appeared on the show. He was pulled off the air for trying to
blow up an animal, a rat I think with a fire cracker. There maybe someone
on here that remembers more than I do. I was about ten years old at the
time.

The song is Surfin' Bird. It was released in 1963 by The Trashmen.

The song was included in Dr. Demento's 20th Anniversary Collection

Actually, it was a rat Mark. Hee Hee It was on here in Toledo too. I imagine
possibly a state run show maybe. Back in those days, every broadcast was
picked up by antenna and rotator. My brother was 9 years older than me
that’s how I got to watch it. If I got caught man would I be in trouble.
Back then the old belt or switch took care of business.
