22 Jul 20 - 03:05 AM (#4065358) Subject: Lyr Req: Yesterday could have sworn that it was W From: Richard Bridge The late Dave Bryant of this forum used to sing a parody of the Beatles' "Yesterday". The bit I can remember went "Yesterday, could have sworn that it was Wednesday, But as today is Saturday, Yesterday must have been Friday. Where did Thursday go, I don't know I couldn't say [then a line that is eluding me] For today is Saturday" Can anyone fill in the missing line and/or remember any more of it? |

I can't do those blue clicky thingies, but perhaps you could find it on here, or do a Google on 'Dave Bryant yesterday parody' (which is what I did) and the thread will come up. Eliza x |

Suddenly - there's no entry in my di-ar-y, For the Thursday or the Fri-i-day, This Saturday came suddenly. Where two days could go, I don't know, I couldn't say, I remember - bugger-all since yesterday Which seemed like... Wednesday - still there's nothing else to say, At least I don't think so anyway, Today was tomorrow - yesterday. |
