Ooops ... some of my line breaks went a wee bit aglae. Ignore the above!

Genie …

Good parody (and of a song which, in my humble opinion, is fit only for parodying!).

Here's a pisstake of yet another song from "Cold Blow And The Rainy Night"


B STANDS FOR BOBBLE, I SUPPOSE
As I went out one May morning
To take a pleasant walk
I hid myself in a badger's hole
To hear to lovers talk
To hear what they might say, my love
To hear what they might say
That I might know a little more about love
Before I went away

CHORUS
O B stands for bobble I suppose
And H it stands for hat
If you think that you're goin' to have your wicked way with me
Get away out of that
Oh get away out of that my dear
Oh get away out of that
Cos I hear that you've done the dirty on me
And behaving like a prat

"Come lie you down beside me love
Together on the green
Cos it's a long three-quarters of year or more
Since together we have been"
"Oh, I'll not lie with you my love
I'll not give you a ride
For you've been courtin' another pretty maid
And your heart's no longer mine"

CHORUS

"Oh I will climb the tall tall tree
And I'll rob the wild bird's nest
If I can't get inside the pants
Of the girl that I love best"
"If I thought you loved me best my love
Then gladly I'd undress
But you can keep your sweet-talk going all night
You'll meet with no success"

CHORUS

But the canny boy with soothing tongue
He charmed the maiden fair
And soon he had her on her back
With her legs up in the air
Her naked derriere my love
Her naked derriere
He patted her bum and like a bodhran drum
The rhythm filled the air

CHORUS
