The Life of a Bubble

[henwrench]

i imagine henny is gonna do a picknmix version with all our lyrics but he should wait for greeny and thareks versions

   Stars on 45.....?
    It was pretty hard mashing up the ORH & Sai takes, Launched on his own is fantastic and I'll try and shoehorn Geir in there somewhere, and oh, yea a Greeny and Tharek play off would be ace!! It's like breakdancing competitions or something, you know 'Launched Vs Geir' HA HA HAAA 

       When they're all done, maybe do a poll to see which version gets on the next henwrench album, I couldn't choose, or stick 'em all on one CD maxi-single HA HA HAAAA

[Greeny]

Excellent version Mark! I started taking my clothes off!

pit rum back oan durty boay get tae yer bed,
i want to hear tharek and greeny versions

Maybe I'm a bit odd, but I can't do my own original take on something once it's been done by somebody else. And this one has several versions interfering with my own ideas. I can only feed on fresh meat, lol.

i was very very drunk last night and had a great idea (well it seemed it at the time). the idea was to do 7 different versions, all with different lyrics but in the singing style of different artists, artist with voices that are distinct and easily impersonated, dylan, bowie, peter gabriel, al jolson, tiny tim, coolio and sting.

this morning it doesnt seem such a good idea, my voice is like louis armstrongs and my brain hertz.

i was channeling vic reeves and bob dylan for this version. one down six to go.

hey i heard there were monkeys
and alligators too
the llamas need
some cheering up
they both look rather blue

my packed lunch
is lovely
and tasty

the lettuce
is crispy
but moist

i was kissing the tigers
and swimming with prawns
there were frogs in the hot house
i only licked one
the man who took me home
was nice

my packed lunch
is lovely
and tasty

the lettuce
is crispy
but moist

im gonna get me some of those frogs
they were licky
licky frogs

i was kissing the tigers
and swimming with prawns

my packed lunch
is lovely
and tasty

the lettuce
is crispy
but moist

there were frogs in the hot house
they were licky

channeling alexei sayle and david bowie for this one. 2 down 5 to go.

he's hypoglycemic
and lives like a butterfly
he stares out of windows
his fence is electrified

john
got a new motor

he's got sand in his pool
and lightning fast fingers
he likes pixies and peris
thinks fairies are mingers
he only wears the best threads (channelling m jagger)
whistles and flutes (channelling viv stanshall)

john
got a new motor

as he climbs through the wreckage
the wardrobe is open
the space is running out
no room for new clothing

he stares out of windows
his fence is electrified

john
got a new motor

he's hypoglycemic
and lives like a butterfly

[Greeny]

I keep tropical fish

in my underpants

john... I'm only dancing...

lol. What a great combination!

[launched]

Nice, Jim - Dylan has been fully realized! You used the vise quite efficiently! 

[launched]

Ah, the Sayle/Bowie take was very nice!!

[Oldrottenhead]

channelled benny hill and peter gabriel for this one. 3 down 4 to go.

stealing cabbages
from the allotment
dirty sticky fingers
caught in the pie

it's not my turn
it's your turn
i'm not having
sloppy seconds

always subtle
double entendres
don't make no
freudian clits
i'm putting you up
on a pedestal

it's not my turn
it's your turn
i'm not having
sloppy seconds

make me squeal like a pig
baby
rub my bacon fat and hard

i'm putting you up
on a pedestal
so i can pull you off

it's not my turn
it's your turn
i'm not having
sloppy seconds

dirty sticky fingers
caught in the pie

[Tony W]

I'm loving this version Jim.
