That's a beautifully sustained example! (fnarr, fnarr!) I had a lot of these as a teenager, starting with Elton John (the b*** is back (3x), all hunched over in a Cadillac) and Neil Sedaka who apparently worked in a med lab ("the only good thing about bad blood is making a slide"). My favorite though is that song by Deep Purple about "Slow Hand Walter". Thanks for sharing, K8. That’s a beautifully sustained example! (fnarr, fnarr!)

Memories of childhood... I thought condom was short for condominium! Ain't heard the Sam Sparrow song yet I don't fink but will be all ears when I do... Baino; Weird Al Yankovic has plenty of inspiration here, dus'ne?! Manuel; Thanks for nailing that song to the inside of my brain. It won't go away. Make it stop. Maxi Cane; Original excuse or what?! I'm robbing that. Sam; Good on yeh for passing it on!!! Quickroute; I thought it was 'mock the half-spa' :) Bad Ambassador; I know... yer wan behind the bar told me the whole story ;) Gotta love public humiliation. Caro; I love that song - I thought I had the lyrics all wrong (microwave oven?!) until I listened to it properly - I too thought there were free chips in there! Warrior; He was maintainer of Church roofs in the olden days. Roy; SO happy to read that!!! Carole; They really do have a word for everything! I shall use it ten times tomorrow to show off :) Lottie; They really should write a song about Tony Danza... I liked the way he kept crashing taxis and never got into trouble. Ma; Yes you can. All you have to do is smear washing-up liquid all over the CD that says 'Backup data' and insert it into Grandad's laptop. The rest will take care of itself. Thriftcriminal; Pascettie and hostable!
