Can't really remember much: Mind yer bloody business, bloody business, bloody business... Lady Randall, our Mam Don't talk to your mother like that, mother like that, mother like that... Lord Randall, our son That's all the brain cells contain. Didn't it end in some sort of canon or round, wherein all three of them start squabbling and arguing? Great send-up - |

15 Jun 08 - 02:35 PM (#2366419) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Lord Randall parody- Roaring Jelly From: Bonnie Shaljean The name I have for it is what I remember from childhood as being "Did You Ever See A Lassie (Go This Way, Go That Way)" which may be the same air as the one mentioned above. We also sang it on long boring schoolbus journeys with the words "Here's To The Bus Driver". Looks like I was wrong about the canon bit though. |

15 Jun 08 - 06:07 PM (#2366517) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Lord Randall parody- Roaring Jelly From: Howard Jones What happened there? The final verse was nothing as polished as a canon or round - the three of them just shouted different verses at each other at the same time. It was very funny. I hope someone can come up with the bits I've missed |

17 Jun 08 - 09:36 AM (#2367771) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Lord Randall parody- Roaring Jelly From: Harmonium Hero With one or two minor differences, Howard remembers it much as I do, although I only remember hearing it once. The tune was the one gnomad quotes. The last two lines of verse 4 were: It's probably gone cold. Do as you're told. Come and get your breakfast Lord Randal my son. The first three verses were repeated all at the same time, then I think there was an instrumental verse, followed by 4,5 and 6 and then those three all together. Then I think they sang the whole thing together - 1&4, 2&5, 3&6. This time, the line "Do as you're told" was screamed and became "Do as you're bloody told!" I also seem to remember line 3, verse 3 as: "I'll clip you round the ear'ole - I'll kick you up the bum". Perhaps it varied from time to time. It was, indeed, VERY funny. John Kelly. |
