Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Animals' Pop Party (Rolf Harris) From: GUEST Date: 31 Mar 21 - 04:35 PM Thanks a lot for the lyrics to Animal's Pop Party. I have been looking for the very rapid tenth verse for ages! I had the original 45 rpm record, and wore it out! Now, I'm going to seek the music to it next.Either that, or write down the music myself. |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Animals' Pop Party (Rolf Harris) From: Jim Dixon Date: 18 Jul 11 - 03:17 PM If it's nice, that's reason enough to have it here, in my opinion. Anyway, you'll never get me into one of those debates about "what is folk?" |

Subject: Lyr Add: THE ANIMALS' POP PARTY (Rolf Harris) From: Jim Dixon Date: 18 Jul 11 - 09:17 AM Here's my transcription from the YouTube recording. (I used the words that were given there and added some.) The indented words are sung by the backup singers. The words in parentheses and italics are spoken, not sung. THE ANIMALS' POP PARTY (As sung by Rolf Harris) I went to an animals' pop party. I didn't know what I should wear, So I dressed myself up kind of op-arty, And what a funny-looking crowd was there! There was one weird wallaby wobbling woefully— I wouldn't want to walk that way— (You want to try, fellows?) There was one weird wallaby wobbling woefully— I wouldn't want to walk that way (That's good!) And two tired tigers tattered and torn Turned tail and tottered away. (Yours!) Two tired tigers tattered and torn Turned tail and tottered away. I went to an animals' pop party. What a funny-looking crowd was there! There was one weird wallaby wobbling woefully, Two tired tigers tattered and torn, Three little threadbare thrushes (Aw!) Thrilled that they weren't thrown out; There was four fat frogs found floating in a fountain, Feeding all their faces full of fairy floss. (Try it!) Four fat frogs found floating in a fountain, Feeding all their faces full of fairy floss. I went to an animals' pop party. What a funny-looking crowd was there! There was one weird wallaby wobbling woefully, Two tired tigers tattered and torn, Three little threadbare thrushes, (Aw!) Four fat frogs found floating in a fountain, Five fine fighting flies flying in formation, Feeling neither fish nor fowl, (Now here's a good one!) Six sick silverfish secretly seeking Sympathy from somebody who seems sincere. (It's yours!) Six sick silverfish secretly seeking Sympathy from somebody who seems sincere. I went to an animals' pop party. What a funny-looking crowd was there! There was one weird wallaby wobbling woefully, Two tired tigers tattered and torn, Three little threadbare thrushes, (Aw!) Four fat frogs found floating in a fountain, Five fine fighting flies flying in formation, Six sick silverfish secretly seeking, Seven scented centipedes sorrowfully searching For something soothing to suck through a straw, (Try it!) Seven scented centipedes sorrowfully searching For something soothing to suck through a straw, Eight aged apes all aching in the arms After hanging around half the afternoon, Nine naughty nostriches annoying all the neighbourhood, By knocking on their kneecaps with a nine inch nail Nine naughty nostriches annoying all the neighbourhood, By knocking on their kneecaps with a nine inch nail Ten tiny terrapins with tattered invitation cards, Terrified and tremulous 'cause every time they turn There's a tremendous temperamental old tarantula confronting them, Attempting no attack but just contentiously tapping out A tired type of tempo with the tips of two of his toenails To the tune of an Italian tarantella. (All together now!) They threw me right out of their pop party. I asked them what the trouble could be. They just told me that I'd better hop smartly, Because they didn't like the look of me. |

Subject: RE: Lyr req - The animals pop party From: Jim Dixon Date: 14 Aug 08 - 12:03 AM Yes, indeed, according to this discography, Rolf Harris recorded HEV YEW GOTTA LOIGHT BOY / ANIMALS POP PARTY as a 45rpm record, Columbia DB8014, in 1966. I couldn't find any lyrics or sound files, though. |
