Guest in town Mikey Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 This one was always going to go wrong. Agree with you Ged. You jusy have to sing along. Its like a law or something. Dynamite and Nytro glycerine.....(stuck in anyones head yet?)
pikeys dog Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 "its almost like eating beans by the pound and wrapping me up in easy tape from the waist down" - Surely that should read 'adhesive tape' to make sense?
asboannie Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 Dynamite and Nytro glycerine.....(stuck in anyones head yet?) Just love that song
Guest Bearsoul Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 This one was always going to go wrong. Agree with you Ged. You jusy have to sing along. Its like a law or something. Dynamite and Nytro glycerine.....(stuck in anyones head yet?) ARE LIKE A FIRECRACKER COMPARED TO YOU....ETC
Guest rachel Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 Surely that should read 'adhesive tape' to make sense? Sure you're right there Joe "It's like sitting in an oven after turning on the gas...."

Guest Bearsoul Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 i am sure it was mentioned on that soul tv documentary a while back? SO WHAT DOES ' A WOP BOP A LU BOP A WOP BAM BOOM ' MEAN? LITTLE RICHARD INVENTED innuendo in rock'n'roll....but blues artists were doing it in the twenties and thirties......Bessie Smith sang a song called 'You've got the right key but your working on the wrong keyhole' doesn't leave much to the imagination !!
Ged Parker Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 SMILIES GED ?? It could be said that a metaphor is a verbal equation where a simile is an approximation and a smilie is just a 'ikkle piccy of a face.
Guest Bearsoul Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 (edited) seem to be on the same wavelength as IN TOWN MIKEY today It could be said that a metaphor is a verbal equation where a simile is an approximation and a smilie is just a 'ikkle piccy of a face. glad we've cleared that up Ged !!!

Guest Baz Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 Dynamite and Nytro glycerine.....(stuck in anyones head yet?) now there's a substance i would like to get my hands on, P.S Its actually "like eating Beef by the pound"
Guest Bearsoul Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 Own up Who has both hands holding their ding-a-ling-a-ling? THAT'S THE GREAT THING ABOUT SERVANTS...YOU CAN STILL TYPE !!!!
Guest Bearsoul Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 I THINK THE BEANS HAVE IT !!! JUST NEED TO OPEN A WINDOW !!
Ged Parker Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 Beef by the pound" No it isn't it's definately PEAS. If you ate "PEAS by the pound then wrapped up in adhesive tape from the waist down" you surely would blow up you mind
Guest Bearsoul Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 No it isn't it's definately PEAS. If you ate "PEAS by the pound then wrapped up in adhesive tape from the waist down" you surely would blow up you mind THIS COULD BE A PAPER AT AN INTERNATIONAL SOUL CONFERENCE...HAVE YOU BEEN OFF TO LISTEN TO IT GED ????
Guest Baz Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 No it isn't it's definately PEAS. If you ate "PEAS by the pound then wrapped up in adhesive tape from the waist down" you surely would blow up you mind Ah but if you were to eat a pound of beef surley it would have worse effects than peas
Ged Parker Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 What about Tony Fox's - Love, Let Love and Be Loved lyric: "I'll thread your needle 'cos your so fine all I want your to do is mend this heart of mine" very descriptive
Guest Bearsoul Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 IF IT WAS BEANS...WOULDN'T YOU BE BLOWING OFF YOUR MIND ??
Ged Parker Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 Ah but if you were to eat a pound of beef surley it would have worse effects than peas It may just be me but peas make me fart more than beef. Anyway just listen to the lyric - it's peas.
Guest rachel Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 Consensus in this kitchen is 'beans'. (My flatmate says "you lot listen to some strange things don't you?" )
Ged Parker Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 IF IT WAS BEANS...WOULDN'T YOU BE BLOWING OFF YOUR MIND ?? We get so highbrow on here don't we
Dayo Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 Definitely beans. Dave Godin printed the lyrics in an ancient issue of B&S. It's a great album; Caviar and Chitlins.

Gene-r Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 good idea for a thread - "lyrics that represent sexual depravation" Remember a single by The Monks called "I Ain't Gettin' Any"...... .....oh, sorry - I thought it said sexual DEPRIVATION!!

Guest Martin Coleman Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 good idea for a thread - "lyrics that represent sexual depravation" tutti fruiti is a reference to the 'front bum' innit? Shane Hi Shane, not soul, I know, but the original "live" lyrics to this song were: "If it don't fit, don't you force it, you can grease it, take it easy. Tuti-fruti etc." and, knowing Little Richard, it wasn't the front bottom he was refering to.

Tuti-fruti etc." and, knowing Little Richard, it wasn't the front bottom he was refering to. HOW WELL DO YOU KNOW HIM????
Gene-r Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 Most of the sexual depravation lyrics came from the 50s: Big Ten Inch Record - Bullmoose Jackson I Want A Bowlegged Woman - Bullmoose Jackson Poontang - The Treniers Work With Me Annie - Hank Ballard Toy Bell - The Bees ("When i play with my ding-a-ling") Roll With Me Henry - Etta James Ride Helen Ride - artist unknown Not forgetting that "Shake Rattle & Roll" had some of its lyrics rewritten, but one was mistakenly left in for Bill Haley - and it still gets played! Can't mention it here, but listen to the first line after the instrumental break!
Guest Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 Ian Levine stood in front of Brenda from The Exciters at a live performance in Yarmouth and had to guide her through the lyrics of "Blowing Up My Mind" in mime form. It was a sight not to be missed....
Guest vinylvixen Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 sounds great to me good idea for a thread - "lyrics that represent sexual depravation" tutti fruiti is a reference to the 'front bum' innit? Shane Shane H..... I'm shocked I always though Tutti Frutti was chewing gum....trying to corrupt a young innocent thing like me....you should be ashamed Women like it harder ......Jo

I can I'm like a one eyed cat peeping in a seafood store, I can look at you and tell that you ain't a girl no more........how about...It ain't the meat it's the motion, makes my baby wanna..... There was a whole series on LP in the 1970's called Copulation Blues.......very good series Jo
