I believe he says "f...ing" 80 times in the song. try getting that out over the airwaves. there are a couple of versions of it on youtube and it also shows up on the excellant Ian Curtis biopic "Control" np: Greg Laswell- Three flights from alto nido ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 4 Sep 2008 10:12:07 -0400 From: "Jeffrey Burka" Subject: Re: Sad o' me (profanity in disguise) adam sez: > Yay, indeed! If I'm not mistaken, the song comes from the musical, "Hair", which > Veda is obviously very familiar with. Ah. Good call on that. I'd say I probably should have known, as my parents used to play that soundtrack all the time when I was a kid, but since at the time I didn't know what any of those words meant, I guess it didn't stick the way some of the other songs did... jeff n.p. _We Will Become Like Birds_, Erin McKeown ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 4 Sep 2008 20:37:02 -0400 From: ontario moe Subject: Re: profanity mix/limericks one time at band camp, bill (breinheimer@webtv.net) said: >as for the profane mix I just remembered John Cooper Clarke's classic >"Evidently Chickentown".

Not rounded and pink as you probably think 'twas grey, had long ears and ate grass. A genial genius named Gene invented a screwing machine. Concave and convex it served either sex and played with itself in between. I'm done. bye, KrW I'm Peter Pan! I'm perpetually young!! OW!!

I'd pick "Napoleon" over that, though. How about Michelle Shocked's "FCC Song"? I played that one a *lot* on my radio show back in college. And if I were to make a 'profanity mix' I would have to include Rachael Sage's "Drive", if for no other reason than after all these years it's still hilarious to hear such a naughty word coming (repeatedly) out of someone so demure. ;> - -- =============================================== Meredith Tarr New Haven, CT USA mailto:meth@smoe.org http://www.smoe.org/meth =============================================== hear at the HOMe House Concert Series http://hom.smoe.org =============================================== ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 4 Sep 2008 19:26:31 -0700 From: Gregory Bossert Subject: Re: profanity mix/limericks On Sep 4, 2008, at 5:37 PM, ontario moe wrote: > not a song, but... http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=RqtgfjkB6Pg also, though not profane: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=hnLweMNQoiE&feature=related according to IMDBL The word "dude" is used around 161 times in the movie. 160 spoken and once in text in the credits for "Gutterballs" the second dream sequence. The F-word or a variation of the F-word is used 281 times. The Dude says "man" 147 times in the movie, nearly 1.5 times a minute. and this is on topic, given the two ecto-ish elements in the film...?
