Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Arseholes are Cheap Today From: GUEST,Guest Date: 25 Jan 20 - 01:23 PM Then there's ... Ten little Bugger Boys Ten little Bugger Boys, drinking deep of wine Got so tight at Fitz' Bar they counted only nine; Nine little Bugger Boys, finding it was late Left a lad in Leicester Square: and then there were eight. Eight little Bugger Boys, dreaming still of heaven, Met a lusty sodomite: and then there were seven. Seven little Bugger Boys, in an awkward fix, Saw a copper standing by: and then there were six. Six little Bugger Boys -- all now left alive -- Buggered one another till they only reckoned five! Five little Bugger Boys, bottoms very sore, Played at tossing Freddy off until there were four. ... but 4 3 2 1 0 are missing Any ideas? ==== |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Arseholes are Cheap Today From: Jack Campin Date: 24 Jan 20 - 03:37 PM Lord Montague was acquitted over the schoolboy, it was having it off with a serviceman that got him locked up. News to me, I'd only heard of him as a vintage car buff. But apparently he used to crank the starting handle at both ends. Is there a version of the song that refers to him unambiguously? |

Just use the filter/search feature to locate the threads about Ta-Ra-Ra-Boom-De-Ay, especially if the thread is qualified by "(not for kids)" , and Mae West, both of 'em, will come out to play. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Arseholes are Cheap Today From: Senoufou Date: 24 Jan 20 - 04:05 AM I seem to remember another rugby song based on the Twelve Days of Christmas, which went down the list and ended with '...two choirboys, and my Lord Montague of Beaulieu'. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Arseholes are Cheap Today From: BobL Date: 24 Jan 20 - 02:40 AM song about Mae West having twins ??? |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Arseholes are Cheap Today From: GUEST,DK Date: 23 Jan 20 - 08:01 PM From (vague) memory, this parody of 'Bananas are cheap..' became popular about the time that Lord Montague was jailed for pedophile offences. There was also a version of 'Answer Me' using his name. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Arseholes are Cheap Today From: GUEST,Hootenanny Date: 23 Jan 20 - 04:34 PM Seoufou, You are correct of course, I must have confused it with the song about Mae West having twins. Thanks for the correction. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Arseholes are Cheap Today From: keberoxu Date: 23 Jan 20 - 02:36 PM Thanks, Mudcat and Senoufou. The Verdi tune sounds better than the vaudeville tune, for setting those words. I needed a good cheap laugh today, and now I have had one. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Arseholes are Cheap Today From: Senoufou Date: 23 Jan 20 - 12:41 PM The tune used to be 'La donna e mobile' when I heard this bellowed out as a rugby song in the sixties, but for all I know it might also have been sung to Ta Ra Ra Boom De Ay. The words I heard were:- Aresholes are cheap today, Cheaper than yesterday. Little boys are half-a-crown, Standing up or lying down. Bigger ones are three-and-six. They can take much bigger p***** And in the action Give more satisfaction. Dreadful song isn't it? But as students then we all thought it was tremendously funny! |
Subject: Lyr Req: Arseholes are Cheap Today From: GUEST,SB Date: 23 Jan 20 - 12:33 PM As mentioned in the thread on the Waterman's Arms. Sounds like a right ol' bawdy Cockney song!!! The tune used is reported to be "Tara Ra Boom De A" |
