Subject: RE: Lyr Add: The Cat From: English Jon Date: 30 Jul 01 - 08:20 AM What other meaning of "pillock" is there? Great song Pavanne! EJ |
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: The Cat From: pavane Date: 30 Jul 01 - 08:30 AM Pillock meaning foolish person, rather than a portion of the male anatomy! |
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: The Cat From: Dicho (Frank Staplin) Date: 30 Jul 01 - 12:42 PM OED- Pillock or pillicock is an obsolete word for penis; also for pill, also for a stupid person, also a handsome young boy. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: The Cat From: English Jon Date: 30 Jul 01 - 12:48 PM Pillock or pillicock is an obsolete word for penis, Hence "stupid person": modern equivalent would be "dickhead" "a handsome young boy", being from Polari (gay slang) so yes, it's a willy. EJ |

Subject: RE: Lyr Add: The Cat From: Louie Roy Date: 30 Jul 01 - 10:13 PM Does any one have the rest of the word to this poem that was around in the 1940s If a Cat drank a quart of milk before he started And ran a mile before he farted How far can he go if he hold his gas If he ran the first mile with a puckered ass This is all I can remember help and thanks |
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: The Cat From: GUEST,Calico Date: 07 Sep 01 - 02:24 AM This thread should be connected with the current "cat song" thread, but I don't know how to do clickies. I'd like to hear the rest of that poem, too, Louie. Calico |
