Peanut Butter Freak (J & Manning)

[Zoltan]

Here's a saturday salvage from the archives. This one is a one day wonder from 2007. The vocals and some of the dirtier parts found in the lyrics are by my then songwriting partner Manning. I could blame him for everything, but i must confess. I even got the title from an old 70's adult film, so i'm not above it. I hope i didn't fail anybody with this revelation. And if that's any consolation i didn't WATCH the movie (there's too much bush to see anything, and the image quality was too low).

The guitar solo(s) use delay not because i was having an Edge moment, but because they're improvised and i tried to hide the wrong notes with excessive delay... Works for some parts. The delay was added at a mixing stage. I don't have the tracks anymore so i just played around with the stereo "master". There's digital clipping in some parts of the song (especially in the choruses), but there's nothing i can do about it anymore...

Here's the lyrics. The talkies are in italics.

Peanut Butter Freak

Come on darling let me spread some peanut butter all over your lovely body. Lick it off...

V1
Peanut butter is my thing
Makes my dinky go ding-a-ling
I like to spread it everyday
But my girlfriend makes me pay
When i open my little jar
Me heart goes be-di-bom-di-jar 

CH:
When i see her spreadings
I get my jar and lick it

EPIC guitar solo

V2:
I need to lick her body if she'll let me

Peanut butter makes you strong
High and mighty like King Kong
If you nosh it everyday
A brontosaurus you will slay
Take me to my happy jar
I got a scrubber in the bar

I'm not a nutter mate... I got principles

CH:
When i see her spreadings
I get my jar and lick it

Lick it off etc.

Epic outro solo that goes nowhere fast...

Hi Zoltan,
I enjoyed the song, and probably would be better for me not to haver the history background of the song title, hahahaha.
Nicely done!

man alive... sorta making me blush a little here... lol..

wait a minute...this song rocks... cracks me up... if you hadn't given any details and I was just listening I would not think much about it... but after reading it all...it's crazy stuff..

really cool lead guitars too...
I do like me some peanut butter.

sort of a Zappa kind of song...

Hey this is brilliant  what a great song and sense of humour. The music is top notch, sounds great I really like the singers vocals on this, sounds like you had fun recording this one.
( I hate peanut butter by the way lol)

[Ray Brookes]

Cool punkish track and the accent reminds me of Johnny Rotten LOL only thing is, this sounds a lot better than the Sex Pistols. I'm with Darren - hate bloody peanut butter, nearly as much as I hate Vegemite.

if it weren't for that 80's song i never would have heard of vegemite!!  I think it was Men at Work... " I said do you speak a my language?  she just smiled and gave me a vegemite sanwidge"

I enjoyed the song plenty, but I enjoyed these two snippets equally. These just cracked me up.

This sounds like Ronnie Biggs when did some vocals on The Sex Pistol's 'Great Rock and Roll Swindle', lol. It would have sat nicely on that album. Filthy, funny and cool!
