Pituitary Gland

"The pituitary gland, or hypophysis, is an endocrine gland about the size of a pea that sits in the small, bony cavity (sella turcica) at the base of the brain. Its posterior lobe is connected to a part of the brain called the hypothalamus via the infundibulum (or stalk), giving rise to the tuberoinfundibular pathway. "

Mmmm tuberoinfundibular pathway.
Pituitary Gland has become my word of the day because I'm sure I've heard it in a lyric.I just can't think what the song is. Any suggestions?
