Well, after all, this is Chuck Berry
who wrote such phrases as

"unless I perforate the hood ..." (of his car)

Who else would say "perforate",
besides Michael Flanders in one of his vaudeville asides
in "Madeira, M'Dear?" ?


"He had slyly inveigled her up to his flat
To view his collection of stamps..."   [pause]
[Piano pauses]
spoken:
All un-per-for-a-ted, ha ha ha ha ha!!
