Re Pigmeat lyrics.

Mmmm? again a verse that is difficult to decipher.

I always thought it was , you can take me to the mornin' i.e have sex all night, although I have seen mournin' market etc.

The bit about China (which seems to pop up in various songs), I always sung...You can take a poll and count it, I'll pass the test jest (just) anywhere, but then again I am notorious for getting it wrong, one only has to view the mess I made of I'm Sorry Mama, to which 12 stringer valiantly came to my rescue.

Cheers, Beeds
