etceterizing

etceterizing (verb) *et· ce· ter· iz· ing | \ et-ˈse-tə-rī-zing *

The act of adopting a sing-song or melodic cadence, where rhythm shifts from speaking to singing just before listing multiple items. This vocal modulation is often used to express tediousness or monotony, humorously embellishing or truncating the narration of a list. Etceterizing has largely replaced the once common use of "etcetera" in spoken language, offering a more lively way to imply that what you're saying might be considered obvious by the audience.
