Why do we get words or small phrases stuck in our heads over and over and over and over?

This is different than a song being stuck in your head. It could be a single word, or the ending of a sentence, etc. Why does it happen?

Thanks for asking this! I’ve always been curious about this. I get odd or unique names stuck in my head and will sometimes repeat them in my mind throughout the day. One that is a constant is a now retired NFL player, D’Brickashaw Ferguson. I have zero affiliation with him other than hearing his name while watching UVA vs FSU back in the day, when FSU was worth a shit but I digress.
