chingford Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 1. She was a big fat woman, oh yeh, with big fat legs 2. Maybe it's because - I'm an incomer... naaah... lost interest in this. enjoyed several of the suggested lines above - not a clue who most were, though. (and probably preferred the poetry of sailing 'hardships' to the correct version. Remember yon bint singing about: 'It's a hard egg, nothing but a hard egg'?)

chingford Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Heard Nick Mason and others on the radio yesterday morning and you could hear the 'understanding' falling into one guy's head, when he realised that one of the lines in the enigmatic Pink Floyd songs he'd heard as a youth was NOT: 'Ducks and Chasms in the classroom, Teacher! Leave them kids alone!' Quackers, eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom McB Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Migod bud- No booger's spotted "So Lonely" by the polis. Brought me to a cracker from about the same era In Europe and America, there's a growing feeling of hysteria Mibbies change the title o' the song to Mullahs for a contemporary feel?

Bud the Baker Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Ching 1. She was a big fat woman, oh yeh, with big fat legs .... Is it "Fat Chicks in Spandex" by Sudden Death 2. Maybe it's because - I'm a Lahndaner... McB Sorry, but the Sidster spotted Sue Lawley altho' you do tend to skip his posts In Europe and America, there's a growing feeling of hysteria...

chingford Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Bud: I used to sing it in the 60s. Thought it was John Lee Hooker or Leadbetter... but cannae find it on my 'albums' (that dates me, eh?) and hoped sumbuddy on here might have a clue... Just been hunting on Google with no success, but came up with This 'interesting' web page which can put you onto similarly 'weird' lyrics... I could be diverted for days...

Bud the Baker Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Ching, big fat woman - Obviously not the song I was thinking about. Try this site about a blues singer with an interesting background Lucille Bogan Regarding her physical features, by her own admission she was “a big fat woman with the meat shakin’ on my bones†- â€Struttin’ My Stuff†In those days blues singers used to customise the lyrics for songs - so it might be a version of the above song, but then again......

Reidy1987 Posted October 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Not an opening line but one of my favourite lines is... But it's hard to get by when your arse is the size of a small country... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom McB Posted October 22, 2004 Report Share Posted October 22, 2004 Not an opening line but one of my favourite lines is...But it's hard to get by when your arse is the size of a small country... National Express of course. On the poetic front we should go for "The ghost of electricity howls in the bones of her face"- again not an opening line. I could post the opening line of Late Ian Dury's "Plaistow Patricia", but it might get me barred. If you don't know it, it's here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted October 22, 2004 Report Share Posted October 22, 2004 Ian Dury was responsible for some of the smartest lyrics ever. One of my favourites is from This Is What We Find, Home improvement expert Harold Hill of Harold Hill Of Do-It-Yourself dexterity, and double glazing skill Came home to find another gentleman's kippers in the grill So he sanded off his winkle with his Black and Decker drill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DongaTon Posted November 19, 2004 Report Share Posted November 19, 2004 Tom, I think you win it outright with that! Was fcking shocked when I first heard that song! Razzle in My Pocket is another Dury classic - classic songwriting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speckled_Jim Posted November 19, 2004 Report Share Posted November 19, 2004 Every time that i look in the mirror, all these lines on my face getting clearer.... When I passed you in the doorway, well you took me with a glance..... Mother told me, yes she told me i'd meet girls like you.... what do you mean I dont believe in god, talk to him everyday.... take off your hat, kick of your shoes I know you ain't going anywhere....
