Philological Waltz
Oh, it's hard to say:
'Hoolima Kittiluca Cheecheechee'
But in Tonga that means:
No
If I ever have the money
Is to Tonga I shall go
For each lovely Tongan maiden there
Will gladly make a date
And by the time she's said
'Hoolima Kittiluca Cheecheechee'
It is usaully too late!
I don't think so, really. It's probably safer to stick to the old moon and June formula. We have our own variation on that highly unoriginal theme. We've tried to bring it up to date a bit.
Satellite Moon
It's a satellite moon
It's a plagerised tune
That duck on the lake's a decoy
There's a sodium glare
In the purified air
And the girl in my arms
Is Mabel Figworthy and if she says 'Oh realy' once more I will break her neck!
We felt that really, on the whole, in this time of crisis and political conflict, what the world needed most was another simple happy chorus song, something which expressed the feelings of all the ordinary people all over the world, and in which everyone could join. We've written one, and it's called "Queee Pop Oh!". It was originally called "Queee Pop Brrrrr". We thought this sounded rather stupid. Do please join in if you wish. A song, we feel, very much for our time.
A Happy Song
When you're feeling kind of blue
And you don't know what to do
When you've got a load of troubles on your mind
If you face them with a smile
It will make your life worthwhile
And you'll find that every cloud is silver-lined
Sing this happy song with me:
Queee Pop Oh!
Just a simple melody
Queee Pop Oh!
Once those skies above are grey
You can face the the world today
If you only learn to say:
Queee Pop Oh!
When your life is filled of cares
Queee Pop Oh!
You will hear it everywhere
Queee Pop Oh!
Though the world may wear a frown,
Here's a way to win renown
Tell them as they strap you down:
Queee Pop Oh!
