A rubber bung (also called rubber stopper) is used in the laboratories for test tubes, flasks (made of glass usually). Bungs also used by winery industry for the wine bottles. A bung must fill well as a stopper. The bungs are of many sizes.

Rubber bung can have one or more hole(s) for plugging in tube depending on the specification of the procedures. In chemical laboratory, to prevent the liquid chemical leaks or escape the container, we need the rubber bung that fit tightly to the container's open, therefore, the dimension of the rubber bung is concerned. These are some of the sizes that are commonly seen in chemical laboratory

What are the lyrics to Please Mr Sandman sung by The Andrew Sisters in World War 2?

"Mr Sandman" was not sung by the Andrews Sisters in WW2, because it was written by Pat Ballard in 1954. It was first recorded by the Chordettes. The lyrics are: (scat “bung, bung, bung, bung..........) Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream (bung, bung, bung, bung) Make him the cutest that I've ever seen (bung, bung, bung, bung) Give him two lips like roses and clover (bung, bung, bung, bung) Then tell him that his lonesome nights are over. Sandman, I'm so alone Don't have nobody to call my own Please turn on your magic beam Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream. (scat “bung, bung, bung, bung.….) Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream Make him the cutest that I've ever seen Give him the word that I'm not a rover Then tell him that his lonesome nights are over. Sandman, I'm so alone Don't have nobody to call my own Please turn on your magic beam Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream. (scat “bung, bung, bung, bung) Mr. Sandman (male voice: “Yesss?) bring us a dream Give him a pair of eyes with a “come-hither” gleam Give him a lonely heart like Pagliacci And lots of wavy hair like Liberace Mr Sandman, someone to hold (someone to hold) Would be so peachy before we're too old So please turn on your magic beam Mr Sandman, bring us, please, please, please Mr Sandman, bring us a dream. (scat “bung, bung, bung, bung….)
