Subject: RE: Lyr Req: E. Bogle's Take Away
G'day again Murray,

I finaly checked my transcription against the stereo (instead of a battered old Walkman, with flat batteries and minimal headphones) and found two errors in the text I posted last night. Line 2 in the 3rd stanza should be:
As I began to lick me lips, ME burger screamed out "Miaow!",
and the final echo line is:
I still like take-away... (repeated 6 times, fading away).

Regards,

Bob Bolton
