baddad Report post Posted July 24, 2006 How about guessing these...... Easy peasy for you ageing hippies out there: Oh, the snot has caked against my pants It has turned into crystal There's a bluebird sitting on a branch I guess I'll take my pistol I've got it in my hand Because he's on my land And so the story ended Do you know it oh so well Well should you need I'll tell you The end-end-end-end-end-end-end-end And... Simon It's LOVE - forever changes... But which song??? Live and Let Live! (had to double check!) So: Well it's a bruising, shattering ride But I cannot deny myself this luxury Yes it's a bruising shattering ride, But I cannot deny myself the luxury...

They said the lyrics were from a track called Bodo from the princess and the warrior OST sung by Alison Goldfrapp. Well I never! Well Alison does like a bit of retro (fnar fnar - along with a large portion of rabbit stew ), so I imagine it's an 'extrapolation' of the original, which is 'look back in anger, by DB, track 2, side 2, "Lodger" between 'I am a DJ' (kiss kiss) and 'Boys keep swinging' (BOYS!...)

mossgrove Report post Posted July 28, 2006 Where's Scarborough? Near Clacton? Isle of Wight? Goodnight. Rest well. Scarborough is on the Yorkshire coast. There are two ansers to this one. The lines come from the tradtional song Scarborough Fayre, but they were also borrowed by Bob Dylan for the son 'Girl from the North Country" Well, if you're travelin' in the north country fair, Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline, Remember me to one who lives there. She once was a true love of mine. Simon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
