Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Rolf Harris's Jail Song
OK, here we go. From The Daily Mirror:

Climb up out of the woodwork babe
From forty years ago,
The climate's great in Britain now
For making loads of dough
You've festered down there long enough,
Time's right to grab your chance
Clap eyes on a rich celebrity
And make the bastard dance
Chorus
Make him squirm, slimy little woodworm
Make him squirm, squirm, squirm
Sink your claws right in to the hilt, don't let him go
(Group) NO! NO!
Make him burn, burn, burn
Slimy little woodworm, make him burn
Get your fifty-years-old hooks into his dough
(Group) GO BABY GO
That old bandwagon you crawled out of
(rotten to the core)
Conceals a host of foul accusers,
Twenty maybe more
My guess is they'll slide after you
All following your stench,
Perhaps you believe you're pretty still
Some perfumed sultry wench
Chorus
"Make him squirm"
I can hear you singing
"Make him squirm, squirm, squirm"
Just imagine all of the money waiting there
(Group) OH YEAH!
Make him burn, burn, burn
Come and join the feeding frenzy girls,
Don't miss out, come on and join me for your share
(Group) PUT IT THERE!


I don't think the "friend" who smuggled that out was doing Sir Rolf any favours. (As if it wasn't bad enough already, he wants it sung as a country number).

Meanwhile, the reply by his victim Wendy Wild, as quoted in The Daily Mail:

You chose me, remember, 40 years ago, you put your dirty hands on me and have not let me go.

Now you are complaining through the papers, whingeing you are innocent, from your cushy jail. I still live with the nightmare of your dirty act while all you seem to care about is your millions staying intact.

Threats from you don't seem to stop and continue to be said, private investigators watching me, fill my heart with dread.

All of this has taken its toll and it's me that's had to squirm.

Just when I thought you could get no lower, you say I am a worm.

If you think your latest song will make you another hit, you're wrong.

You're just a sex offender. Now put that in a song and sing it.


I think that about wraps it up. I wouldn't mind seeing this thread locked now. I didn't expect it to be so easy.
