IVOR BIGGUN IS MY NAME


Ivor Biggun is my name

Winking is my claim to fame

And if the people don't complain

I'll keep on winking just the same

THE WINKER'S SONG (misprint)  

Available here in stereo is Ivor's single-handed chartbuster deservedly banned by every radio station in the civilised world (and even some in Australia).


My mother said that I never should

Play with the naughty, rude girls in the wood

Their giggling talk I could never understand

And that's why I fell in love with my right hand


And that's why...

I'm a w&nker, I'm a w&nker

And it does me good like it bloody well should

I'm a w&nker, I'm a w&nker

And I'm always pulling my pud'


I was twenty-five years old before I was kissed

And then I found that I preferred a swift one off the wrist

It's cheap and convenient, you can't catch VD

It's available at any time and it's absolutely free


And that's why...

Chorus


Oh Mrs. Palm and your five lovely daughters

Thank you for having me and being oh so kind

I've got pains in my arms and my dong is growing shorter

My knees have turned to water and I think I'm going blind


I've w&nked over Italy, I've w&nked over Spain

I've w&nked in an omnibus, I've even had a w&nk in a train

I've used a badger and a melon and a cat

An inflatable Linda Lovelace and a Davy Crockett hat


And that's why...

Chorus


Oh, Mrs Palm and your five lovely daughters

Thank you for having me and being oh so kind

I've got pains in my arms and my dong is getting shorter

My knees have turned to water and I think I'm going blind


He's a w&nker, he's a w&nker

And it does him good like it bloody well should

He's a w&nker, he's a w&nker

And he's always pulling his pud'

SING A MUCKY SONG 

Ivor's early theme song and signature tune. This features a ukelele solo which is a plucking (misprint) masterpiece.


Some people sing sad songs

About mother and home

Some sing about winking

Women, I'd leave them alone

Some sing about Blue Suede Shoes and

A romance that went wrong

But I pick up my ukulele and

Sing a mucky song


I pluck-pluck-pluck my ukulele and

Serenade the folks so gaily

All around the place you see

The smiles smiles smiles

I pluck for m' dinner

And pluck for m' supper

I'm such a happy little plucker

Singing songs about t*ts and bums 

And piles piles piles


My ukulele well it won't bring me wealth

If I play it with the band

Or play with m' self

It's a very nice size

And I can't keep my hand off it for long

So I pick up my ukulele and

Sing a mucky song


I pluck-pluck-pluck my ukulele and

Serenade the folks so gaily

Singing something vulgar 

To my chums chums chums

I pluck for m' dinner 

And pluck for m' supper

'Eee I'm such a happy little plucker

Singing songs about nudist camps and

Honeymoon couples and bums


A greengrocer's daughter took a

Fancy to me

She let me hold her aubergines

Sat on the settee

She said I could do anything

She wouldn't think it wrong

So I pulled out my ukulele and

Sang a mucky song


So if you got a gum-boil or

A pain in yer bum

And your wife's run off

With the dustbin man now

Doncha feel glum

Don't go around like a misery guts

With a face that's three feet long

Grab yourself a ukulele and

Sing a mucky song


And pluck-pluck-pluck your ukulele

And serenade the folks so gaily

Singing something vulgar to

Your chums chums chums

If you sit there 

And play with yourself

You'll either go blind

Or ruin your health

But you'll be the happiest plucker that strums

Singing songs about nudist camps and

Honeymoon couples and bums

NO! NO! NO! 

An appealing (misprint) song which contains few vulgar words, but is much too disgusting to describe. Everyone denies having anything to do with it, even Ivor, but we do know that the backing is by Gentian Violet, a vocal quartet, two thirds of whom are female.


At the appliance shop I bought a filthy book

Locked in the lav I had a bloody good look

There was a naked nude lady and a man dressed the same

Doing something very rude with a funny foreign name

I think it was called 'Ferrétillio'

Which is Spanish for "blowing the bugle"


I went 'round to my girlfriend's house but she said "Ooh

That's not very nice and I don't want to know"

So I tactfully said "Forget that it's a c*ck

Pretend your at the seaside, and it's a stick of rock"


She said "No! No! No!, no that's flat

I could never never do a filthy thing like that"

She said "No! No! No!, no that's flat

I could never never do a filthy thing like that"

She said it was called 'Ferreterloranio'

And was named after an Italian racing driver


Well I filled her up with Whisky and I filled her up with gin

But she still wouldn't do it 'cause she said it was a sin

I even had a bath but the answer was the same

She wouldn't do the thing with the funny foreign name

It was called something like 'Ferreterlerulio'

I said it would protect her from tonsilitus

But she wouldn't swallow that


She said "No! No! No!, no that's flat

I could never never do a filthy thing like that"

She said "No! No! No!, no that's flat

I could never never do a filthy thing like that"


Next day a man in a hat came knocking at the door

He said "You've won the pools, half a million or more"

With the cheque in m' pocket to my girlfriend's house I ran

To see if she was still a vegetarian

I said did she remember what a silly girl she'd been

About the sword-swallowing in that funny magazine

I said would she refuse me and treat me with disdain

Regarding the activity with the funny foreign name


She said "No! No! No!, no that's flat

I could never refuse to do a thing like that

She said "No! No! No!, no that's flat

I could never refuse to do a thing like that...


Mr. F*llatio, the ice-cream man

Hear him jingle jangle in t' ice-cream van

Mr. F*llatio, all the children say hello

To Mr. F*llatio, the ice-cream man

I WISH I WAS

The Gazunder Jug and Bottle Band accompanied Ivor throughout this spirited skiffle number. Two police officers then accompanied Ivor from the building.


I wish I was a cat

Sitting on a rug

Pretty girls would come and pick me up

And give me a great big hug

They'd tickle my ears and stroke me

And pat me on the head

And all those wonderful things I'd see

Sleeping at the bottom of the bed


Well I wish I was

Well I wish I could be

Well I wish I was anyone

Somebody else, not me

Ya la la la la la da


I wish I was a mirror

On that mormon lady's wall

All those mucky things I've only read about in mucky books

I would see them all

She'd walk around in a negligée

And a flimsy little nightie

And when she took that nightie off

Oh gosh, good lord almighty


Chorus


I wish I was a brassiere

I'd spend my lifetime thrust

Right up a ladies' jumper

Wrapped 'round a ladies' bust

I would be a hold-up man

Just like Butch Cassidy

An over the shoulder, boulder holder

Brassiere's life for me


Chorus


I wish I was the seat upon

A big fat ladies' bike...


"Hold it, this is the engineer. I'm not going to record anymore of this stuff - It's filthy!!"

I'M SHY 

Ivor is a shy, retiring individual (he was breast fed until the age of twenty four). In this sensitive song, he and The Red-Nose Burglars (aided by The Burglarettes) will tug at your heartstrings.


I'm shy, I'm shy, 

I can't even look you in the eye

I go all red and I hide my head

'Cause I'm shy, I'm shy


I wish I was mustard with ladies

Like all of my chums

But I just stare at the bus shelter walls

And twiddle my thumbs

And when I open my big stupid gob

The right word never comes

And I hope you don't mind

That I took such a time

Just to get it in rhyme


He's shy, He's shy, 

He can't even look you in the eye

He goes all red and he hides his head

'Cause he's shy, he's shy


If I had the nerve

I'd approach girls in public houses

And find out what's hidden in their hearts

And concealed in their blouses

Wish I could get out what's stuck in my throat

And my brain and my trousers

And I hope you don't mind

That it took such a time

Just to get it in rhyme


He's shy, He's shy, 

He can't even look you in the eye

He goes all red and he hides his head

'Cause he's shy, he's shy


And so if you think I don't like you

You see that you're wrong

It's just that what's so hard in words

Is so easy in a song

And I've been looking for someone like you

For my whole life long

And I hope you don't mind

That it took such a time

Just to get it to rhyme

GRAFFITI NIGHT FEVER 

Ivor's early poetical works may be seen in mural exhibitions in locations throughout North Nottinghamshire, although they are rapidly disappearing due to vandalism and lavatory attendants' scrubbing brushes. This song celebrates the exponents of a delicate and subtle art.


Ho ho, you can't catch me

Writing on the whitewash in the lavatory

Whipping out m' pencil when the twilight falls

I'm the man who scrawls "balls" on the walls


When it's dark I take a stroll

With m' little bit of chalk and m' aerosol

Down in the subway, hiding from the light

Scribbling away in the middle of the night

"Queens Park Rangers", "Elvis is alive"

"Dread in-a Babylon", "Gerald loves Clive"


Ho ho, you can't catch me

Writing in the whitewash in the lavatory

'Round the bus shelters and the entrance halls

I'm the man who scrawls "balls" on the walls


I'm an escalator desecrater rattling down the tubes

On the underwear adverts pencilling pubes

Underneath the arches with m' crayon in m' hand

Drawing something I don't understand

I've just written something obscene

In paint in the gents on a french letter machine


Ho ho, you can't catch me

Writing on the whitewash in the lavatory

Whipping out m' pencil when the twilight falls

I'm the man who scrawls "balls" on the walls


But I've never seen a real live lady in the nude

Never played 'hide the sausage', never done something rude

But I can imagine it just as well

And it doesn't really matter if I can't spell

I'll just write about it all over the lav

And people who read it might think that I have

(Done it with a real lady, that is)


Ho ho, you can't catch me

Writing on the whitewash in the lavatory

Whipping out m' pencil when the twilight falls

I'm the man who scrawls "balls" on the walls

CUCUMBER NUMBER

A north country calypso featuring guitar, ukelele, banjo, bass, packing case, tin cans, jam jars and a tin of lentils.


Stop muckin' about and gather around

I'll sing about the fruit makes world go 'round

And in the garden of Eden, Eve started the fall

But the fruit that she fancied weren't an apple at all


It was Adam's cucumber (sing the song)

'Ee a great cucumber (two feet long)

A massive cucumber (big and strong)

Fig-leaf cucumber (come and do the cucumber number)


In a cucumber frame one cucumber grows

And it stretches from m' knees up to my nose

It'll fill up your belly make you feel alright

You can gobble the fruit each and every night

Delicious cucumber (in the garden)

'Ee a monstrous cucumber (beg your pardon)

Nice firm cucumber (such a hard 'un)

Enormous cucumber (come and do the cucumber number)


Now down by the Humber

The wife of a plumber

She did the rhumba

On my cucumber

She went and got her neighbours

And a sister or two

And the district nurse and they all said 

"Ooh! look at that cucumber" (what a size)

What a fat cucumber (satisfies)

Romantic cucumber (should win a prize)

Gigantic cucumber (come and do the cucumber number)


My fruity friend amused them so

So I got m' cap and jacket getting ready to go

I said "Did you like my big cucumber?"

They all said "Ooh, make your cucumber do one more number"

Trusty cucumber (show them how)

Lusty cucumber (I did and how)

'Ee lovely cucumber (goodbye now)

Good gracious cucumber (goodbye now)

Champion cucumber (goodbye now)

Natty dread cucumber (goodbye now)

Cucumber in-a Babylon (goodbye now)

Oh what a lovely cucumber (goodbye now)

What a beautiful cucumber (goodbye now)

What a smashing cucumber (goodbye now)

GREAT GRANDAD JOHN

A nice little song, free from vulgarity, telling a more-or-less true story about the alterations made to a statue by our feathered friends. It's one in the eye for Nelson! Accompaniment is provided by The Guano-Tones.


"Daddy - who's that funny man over there

With all those musical instruments?"

"Why! That's Ivor Biggun the famous one man band"

"What's a one man band, daddy?"

"He's one man and he's banned by television and radio..."

"Young wipper-snapper!"


Well it seems that ever since I was born

Somebody said to me

My Great Grandad John

Was just the kind of man that I ought to be

He built a great big factory

And when he passed away

They put his statue in the park

And its still there today


And the birds make a terrible mess of my Great Grandad John

The doggies leave their calling cards

On the stone he stands upon

The kids throw sticks & bricks at him

They try to pull him down

My Great Grandad John the hero of the town


My Great Grandad John made fifty thousand pounds

But now the money has all gone

And his house has fallen down

No one cares about the rich man

Made of brass and stone

And in the park

Out in the dark

Great Grandad stands alone


And the birds go (twttttttt) on my Great Grandad John

The doggies leave their calling cards

On the stone he stands upon

The kids throw sticks & bricks at him

They try to pull him down

My Great Grandad John the hero of the town


Twttttttt

"Argh! Well at least it wasn't a Golden Eagle!"


Sometimes I think I hear his voice

It sounds so sad and old...

"Up on this pedestal's no fun

It's lonely and it's bloody cold

So just you do what you want to son

Lead the life you choose

And don't make fifty thousand pounds 

And end up in my shoes"


"Or the birds will (Twttttttt) on you my great grandson

The doggies leave their calling cards

On the stone you stand upon

The kids throw sticks & bricks at you

They'll try to pull you down

Like Great Grandad John the hero of the town"


"I say you down there - how much do you earn per street?"

"Er... Er... About 50 pence a street guv'ner..."

"Well here's three quid...

Why don’t you go and play six streets away"

"It's tough being a superstar..."

UNDERGROUND MUSIC

By Ivor Biggun and Vile Eric Shredsby. Ivor has found his "station" in life and is just the "ticket" on this "track". It should send you into "transports" of delight, with its terrible puns on railway station names. The pseudonym of Ivor's co-writer on this number conceals the identity of an amateur gynaecologist from Acton.


On London Transport I used to do my shopping

Stock-well up down at the Bank and finish up on Wapping station

Tooting my horn, 'n' kids I Turn-ham Green

If they played on the edge where they'd been seen


I was working on the railway

Not as a sleeper as some folk say

I was working on the railway

Mind the doors, you'll be okay


I met a girl call Stepney Green, she really was quite sweet

She used to give me New Cross buns, oh what a Bakers-treet

I got down on my Neas-den said could she give me a kiss

She said go and ask if Barbi-can, I can't Stan-more of this


I was working on the railway (subtle stuff)

Not as a sleeper as some folk say ('ear listen)

I was working on the railway

Mind the doors, you'll be okay


I met a girl called Valerie the Angel of my heart

I tried to get her Plaistow but the Ald-wych was too smart

I said O-Val I'm not a Rich-mond, Golders Green for all I know

She left me by the Waterloo what a loovely way to go


I was working on the railway (flipping 'eck)

Not as a sleeper as some folk say

I was working on the railway

Mind the doors, you'll be okay


My girl from Ealing Common she ran off with High Street Ken

But now she's seen that Kens-al Green she's back with me again

I knew I'd Picc-a-dilly if I worked upon the rail

I'm going to wed Victoria her mother's Maida Vale


I was working on the railway ('ear listen)

Not as a sleeper as some folk say (it's good isn't it)

I was working on the railway

Mind the doors, you'll be okay

Mind the doors, you'll be okay

MY BROTHER'S GOT FILES (misprint)

A song of suffering, bravely borne, dedicated to Ivor's brother Willy... whose life is made drearier because of his posterior. Willy lives in Woolwich and has a pain in the Arsenal.


"That's my brother over there standing up, stuffing ice cubes down the back of his trousers and do you want to know why? Well actually, between you and me..."


My brother's got piles

He never ever smiles

You'd be glum

If you had his bum

My brother's got piles


We warned him, we told him

We said don't sit on stone walls

Avoid wet grass, but now his arse

Looks like it's grown another pair of...


Well I mean he's moaning he's groaning

He's doubled up with pain

But the girls say aaah

They think he's a star

Because he walks just like John Wayne


('Ere listen)


My brother's got piles

He never ever smiles (He's quite disconsolate)

You'd be glum

If you had his bum

My brother's got piles

 

He bought some suppositories but no bloody good they'd done

A waste of time spent swallowing them

He might as well have stuffed them up his bum


My brother's got piles

He never ever smiles

You'd be glum

If you had his bum

My brother's got piles


All the lotions and the potions

Upon the grapes of wrath

Some joker said a poker with a red-hot end might burn them off


His botty feels grotty

And standing up you'll find him

He can't sit down but he shouldn't frown

Because his troubles are all behind him


(Eee by gum)


My brother's got piles

He never ever smiles

You'd be glum

If you had his bum

My brother's got piles


(Tie a yellow ribbon to the old suppository)


My brother has got haemorrhoids, we laugh, it is unkind

The kids all call him choo-choo train 'cause he has a tender behind

THE WINKER'S PARADISE (misprint)

Country and northern music with a lilting solo on the harmonica ("mouth organ" sounds so vulgar, doesn't it, my dears?). It is suggestive of the South Sea islands and Ivor's lovely bunch of coconuts.


I dreamed I was on an island

In the South Pacific sea

With ten thousand seagulls, ten million coconuts

Twelve nymphomaniacs and me

I've got eight gramophone records

I've fixed myself up nice

A million miles from a Monday morning

In a w*nker's paradise


A knotted hanky on my head

I sat and took my ease

With a sausage roll and a one-handed magazine

Under the jam-butty trees

When a lifeboat full of schoolgirls

Came serenely floating by

They said with a grin "May we join you in

Your w*nker's paradise?"


I led them dancing from the sea

By the waters we sat down

With a brass-band softly on the breeze

By a lake of Newcastle Brown


It was the clattering clock that woke me

And from my dream I rose

But in my hand was a coconut

And sand was between my toes

Oh, the next time I dream of Shangri-La

You won't have to ask me twice

Next time I go I'm stopping

In a w*nker's paradise


I'm going to hang around like a fart in a Volkswagen

In a w*nker's paradise

I'm gonna hang on in like Gunga Din

In a w*nker's paradise

Original 7" EP notes

Here it is at last, folks! A thrilling seven-incher... featuring FOUR BIG GUNS from IVOR! Yes, old bags-under-the-eyes is back with some more mind rotting filth and depravity dredged up from the darker corners of his small and manure-strewn brain. So roll back the carpet!! Go to the cocktail cabinet and make yourself a STIFF ONE, wind up the gramophone, blindfold the guinea pig, lock the kids in the wash-house, and let it all hang out! Listen enruptured as Britain's foremost w*nker forks through his musical dung-hill of North Country naughtiness, and offers two big bouncers on the front and a big double back-side!! It's Ivor's EXTENDED 'UN.. a bargain Biggun that's bound to go spurting up the charts! (By the way, don't be 'palmed off' with imitations!)

GARY NUMAN DOES NOT APPEAR ON THIS RECORD


THE WINKER'S ROCK 'N' ROLL (misprint) (original version)

Recorded mostly at Ivor's home studio in Sheep's Bottom, Nottinghamshire. Featuring the voices of The Four Squirts (Ivan E. Normussun, Hugh Jampton, Dick Brandisher & John Thomas Allcock). With winkle pickers twitching and drainpipes draining, Ivor and the lads really beat it out in this gripping hand-jive number. Ivor lays down his astonishing red hot twiddley bits on a blue suede ukelele.


Because the red-nosed burglars (Ivor’s Vocal Group) weren’t renowned for their great ability to remember tunes, lyrics or even their own names, Ivor typed out a lyric sheet (for The Wanker’s Rock’n' Roll) for them. Here it is printed out directly from Biggun’s ancient computer file - Ain't technology bloody marvelous?

one two three four

Change hands!

five six seven eight

Change hands!

nine ten eleven twelve

Change hands!



When I was a kid in 1956

My big brother showed m' some disgusting tricks

Sitting in the bathroom on my own

W*nking to the rhythm of m' gramophone


And I was going

1-2-3-4 change hands

5-6-7-8 change hands

9-10-11-12 change hands

All you need is the rhythm and the wrist control

And you can do the w*nker's rock 'n' roll


Well I tried to do the shimmy, I tried to do the twist

I tried to do the tango, I nearly broke me wrist

The women all point at me and scoff

Say "You won't need me 'til your hand drops off"


And I'm going

1-2-3-4 change hands

5-6-7-8 change hands

9-10-11-12 change hands

All you need is the rhythm and the wrist control

And you can do the w*nker's rock 'n' roll


Give me a 'W'

Give me an 'A'

Give me an 'N'

Give me a 'K'

Give me an 'E'

Give me a 'R'

Stick it all together and what's that spell?


I've got Great Balls Of Fire

I've got blisters on me palms

I've got the Willie And The Hand-Jive

And muscular arms

The Teds call me "W*nker"

When I'm walking down the street

'Cause I walk the Jerky-Gurky 

To the Boogie-Woogie beat


And I'm going

1-2-3-4 change hands

5-6-7-8 change hands

9-10-11-12 change hands

All you need is the rhythm and the wrist control

And you can do the w*nker's rock 'n' roll


When Long Tall Sally met Johnny B. Goode

He didn't do nothing but pull his pud'

Just the wrist and the fist and you can't go wrong

Doing the Hand-Jive all night long

I LIFT UP MY FINGER (And Say Tweet-Tweet)

Written by Leslie Sarony in the 1920's, this little song is perfectly broadcastable and contains no blatant filth or cussing. Recorded mostly at Monterey Studios, London W7. Featuring electric guitar by the multi-talented Johnny G! 


Some people make a fuss when a thing goes wrong

Some people swear and cuss, others sing a song

I don't do either that's all na-poo

When a thing goes wrong with me 

This is what I do


I lift up my finger and I say tweet-tweet

hush-hush, now-now, come-come

I don't have to linger when I say tweet-tweet

hush-hush, now-now, come-come

When the wife tells me where I ought to be

Do I sit there feeling glum?

No, I lift up my finger and I say tweet-tweet

hush-hush, now-now, come-come


So if you're in a train full of Manchester United supporters

And you're the only one wearing a Queens Park Ranger's scarf

Or if you're trapped in the lavs by a fellow with nail varnish and eye-shadow

Don't lose your cool, don't be dismayed, just do what I do


I lift up my finger and I say tweet-tweet

hush-hush, now-now, come-come

I don't have to linger when I say tweet-tweet

hush-hush, now-now, come-come

When a girl says "Dear, I'm lost around here"

Do I sit and suck my thumb

No, I lift up my finger and I say tweet-tweet

hush-hush, now-now, come-come


Some people say tut-tut, others say dash-dash

Some call for beef or ... others .. and mash

If in the hotel waiters are slow

Do I thunder what the? who the? why the? how the? no!

I lift up my finger and I say tweet-tweet

hush-hush, now-now, come-come

I don't have to linger when I say tweet-tweet

hush-hush, now-now, come-come

When the cats at night are starting to fight

Do I sit there meek and mum?

No, I lift up my finger and I say tweet-tweet

hush-hush, now-now, come-come

I lift up my finger and I say tweet-tweet

hush-hush, now-now, come-come

I don't have to linger when I say tweet-tweet

hush-hush, now-now, come-come

When the wife tells me where I ought to be

Do I sit there feeling glum?

No, I lift up my finger and I say tweet-tweet

hush-hush, now-now, come-come

SEND FOR DR. CLAP

A Sailor's love song. Get a dose of this infectious number!!! When Ivor performs this song 'live' the audience often give him the clap that he so richly deserves. Recorded mostly at Spotted Dick Studios, Long Benton, Berks.


Well if you've got something wrong

With the end of your dong

And a pain in your old chap

Send for, send for, send for Dr. Clap


If you're feeling grotty

And your dongler's spotty

That's no great mishap

Send for, send for, send for Dr. Clap


'Cause he's the man who will make you good as new

He's the man who will cure you of your ills

He's the man who will paint your privates blue 

With his great big hypodermic and his great big pills


If you've got a throb in the end of your knob

And it dangles like a strap

Send for, send for, send for Dr. Clap


And ladies too, he'll see to you

He won't make you blush

Come along and lie down on his couch

Point your path in his direction

And wait for his injection

You'll only feel a little prick and you won't say "Ouch!"


(And it's on the National Health)


If you've got a failure in your g*nitalia

Don't get in a flap

Send for, send for, send for Dr. Clap

If you've got a pain or a varicose vein

Where it didn't ought to be

Send for, send for, send for Clap M.D.


Chorus


Well if you've got something wrong with the end of your dong

And a pain in your old chap

Send for, send for, send for Dr. Clap

You've gotta...

Send for, send for, send for Dr. Clap

HIDE THE SAUSAGE (original version)

Recorded mostly at Monterey Studios W7 with Terrific Teddy MacDouall, guitar & Fanny Boovines on backing vocals. Based on an old traditional Rotherham whippet neutering song called "I've Got A Hot Dog If You've Got The Bun". Biggun is accompanied by an upright organ and expertly handled maraccas.


Well there's a brand new dance

Everybody's trying to do

It's better than the pogo

The shimmy or the boogaloo

You can do it by yourself

But it's much more fun with two

So come on everybody

Let's go nuts and screw

And this is just what you do


You've got to... 

Hide the sausage

Come on and hide the sausage

It's time to hide the sausage tonight

You've got to sink the winkle

It's really very simple

To straighten out your wrinkle tonight

Come on let's play mums and dads

The moon is shining bright

Come on everybody and hide the sausage tonight

Get it right out of sight


Well a little chippolata

That points down to your toes

Is as good as a big Frankfurter

That reaches up to your nose

Well if it's a Wiener Schnitzel (Mein Gott)

Or a hot dog stuffed in a bun

Or a big black pudding

Come and do it everyone

You can join in the fun


When you...

Chorus


It's a dance you can do on the sofa

It's a dance you can do in the park

You can even do it in Piccadilly Circus

If you're quick and you do it when it's dark

You can do it backwards, frontwards and sideways

Provided that you're over sixteen (Oh no you don't!)

You can even do it standing up, I've seen it in a magazine

But you've got to be keen


When you...

Chorus


Well there's a brand new dance

Everybody's trying to do

It's better than the pogo

The shimmy or the boogaloo

You can do it by yourself if you're a w*nker

But it's much more fun with two

So come on everybody

Let's go nuts and screw

And this is just what you do


You've got to...

Chorus


Hide the sausage, come on and hide the sausage

Hide the sausage, come on and hide the sausage

Let's all spear the bearded clam

C'mon let's all sink the .... dagger

Ooh it's wonderful to hide the sausage

C'mon everybody it's time to hide the sausage

GIVE US A W@NK FOR CHRISTMAS


I dreamed my snowman came to life and walking in the air

He led me to a magic land of toys, I know not where

Ho ho "What do you want for Christmas?" said old Santa, bold and stout

I pointed at his fairies and I began to shout...


Give us a w@nk for Christmas

I've been good all year and that's a fact

Give us a w@nk for Christmas

Then you'll see what Santa Claus has brung you in his sack


Give us a w@nk for Christmas

Stir my pud' and wipe it on your sleeve

Give us a w@nk and by way of saying thanks

I'll rub your t*ts until it's New Years eve


Give us a w@nk for Christmas

Tug that bell rope, hear that old ding-dong

Give us a w@nk for Christmas

I've not sworn, nor drunk, nor told a lie the whole year long


Give us a w@nk for Christmas

It only comes but once a year they say

Manipulate my member for the last week in December

And I'll rub your t*ts until it's New Years day


Santa's coming, Santa's coming

Coming as he's riding on his sleigh

Gazing, it's quite plaid dear

At the rear ends of his reindeer

I guess he's funny that way


So... Give us a w@nk for Christmas

Shake my spruce until the needles drop

Give us a w@nk for Christmas

Now's the time to strangle the last turkey in the shop


Give us a w@nk for Christmas

Shake the big balls on my Christmas tree

Pull my cracker, ho-ho-ho

Stuff your drawers with mistletoe

And I'll rub your t*ts until it's January


Oh come on... please... just for Christmas

Just this once... it won't take very long... it never does

GUMS AND PLUMS (live)


Spoken introduction


Well my name is Ivor Biggun

And they say I've never been kissed

My s*x life took one hell of a knock

On the day I broke my wrist

I much prefer hand shandy to the company of lasses

Everybody says that I'll go blind

You'll notice I'm wearing glasses


For my name is Ivor Biggun and 

I sing about them tits and them bums

Whoa now you know my name you'd better

Get your gums around my plums


My name is Ivor Biggun

I'm disgusting and obscene

I blow my nose without a hankie

And my fingernails aren't clean

I'm public enema number one

A man of effluence and style

My 'je ne sais quoi' is obvious

'Cause it sticks out a mile


Whoa my name is Ivor Biggun and 

I sing about them tits and them bums

Whoa now you know my name you'd better

Get your gums around my plums


Well my name is Ivor Biggun

But some dispute that fact

And they suggest I contravene

The trade descriptions act

But my girl said she's marry me

If I had a twelve inch dong

I said "I'll cut it down to any size luv

If you think that it's too long"


Whoa my name is Ivor Biggun and 

I got my mojo workin' well

Well you can press my button

Press my button and ring my bell


Well Ivor Biggun, Ivor Biggun, Ivor Biggun

Ivor Biggun, Ivor Biggun, Ivor Biggun

Ivor Biggun, Ivor Biggun, Ivor Biggun

I'm moderately well endowed

I'm Britain's champion wanker

I'm renowned throughout the land

Everybody knows my name

But nobody wants to shake my hand


Whoa my name is Ivor Biggun and 

I sing about them tits and them bums

Whoa now you know my name you'd better

Get your gums... around my plums

JOHN THOMAS ALLCOCK (live)


Spoken introduction


John Thomas Allcock

He lived north-east of Whitstable

He's got that certain something

That the girls find irresit-stible

He's a fine upstanding fella

And they say for what it's worth

His mother was frightened by a donkey

Six months before his birth

And when the midwife heaved him out

The first thing she could seize on

It wasn't his arm, it wasn't his leg

And I guess that that's the reason 


Why...he's... the... 

Man with the biggest plonker in the world

He keeps it in his trousers tightly curled

It's a yard-and-a-half if it's a inch

And it's more when it's unfurled

He's the man with the biggest plonker in the world


John Thomas Allcock

At school the kids all gathered 'round

And said "Please tell us what is that

Behind you, trailing on the ground?"

He said it was a python and 

It had got the mumps

He stuck it in his ear and said

"I am a petrol pump"

He stuffed it down his wellies 

And the teacher said "Now John

You'll have to stay behind when all the other kids have gone"


And that's what's known as Further Education

But you don't get a certificate for it


Because... he was... the one and only...

The man... the man... talkin' 'bout the man...

The man with the biggest plonker in the world

He keeps it in his trousers tightly curled

It's a yard-and-a-half if it's a inch

And it's more when it's unfurled

He's the man with the biggest plonker in the world


John Thomas Allcock

He grew up and he went to sea

Modelling for masts 

And for chimneys for the admiralty

Then he got married and he had five kids

And it comes as no surprise

He's got a lovely wife

With a rather strange expression in her eyes


She just stands there and she goes baawaaagh...

And it hardly surprising because she's married to...

The one and only... the man... the one and only man...

A very extraordinary man...

The man with the biggest plonker in the world

He keeps it in his trousers tightly curled

It's a yard-and-a-half if it's a inch

And it's more when it's unfurled

He's the man with the biggest plonker in the world


John Thomas Allcock

He died, oh yes he did

And because of rigor mortis

They couldn't shut the coffin lid

And now he's up in heaven

And his kids are very proud

To see their daddies dongler

Dangling through the clouds

And when it's dark and midnight

You can hear the ladies sigh

And whisper when the ghost

Of old John Tom goes slithering by

Dragging his enormous equipment behind him


Because... they know... that he... is... the...

Man with the biggest plonker in the world

He keeps it in his trousers tightly curled

It's a yard-and-a-half if it's a inch

And it's more when it's unfurled

He's the man with the biggest plonker

What an enormous stonker

He's the man with the biggest plonker in the world

JOHNNY G FAN CLUB SONG


Johnny is the singer in a one-man band

He's got the drums on his feet 

He's got the guitar in his hand

Mondays to Saturdays and one-night stands

But he doesn't do it for the glory

He's kicking on the pedal 

And keeping it tight

He's going for the rhythm

'Cause he knows that's right

Playing for drinks and cash on the night

I guess it's the same old story


J-J-J-J-J Johnny

Won't you play your one-man band

J-J-J-J-J Johnny

Play me something that I can understand

J-J-J-J-J Johnny

Play me something that I can clap my hands


And he goes

B'wana, B'wana, B'wana, B'wana

B'wana, B'wana, B'wana, B'wana

B'wana, B'wana, B'wana, B'wana

They're only rhymes to lines

And he goes

B'wana, B'wana, B'wana, B'wana

B'wana, B'wana, B'wana, B'wana

B'wana, B'wana, B'wana, B'wana

They're only rhymes to lines


Smiley Lewis and Wee Willie Wayne

Antoine Domino and Mystery Train 

Lawdy Miss Claudy and Love In Vain

He can play any song that you give him

He's a rock steady teddy with a Berry on top

He's a Blue Suede cruiser with a Diddley-Bop

He's a Country Line Special he's a top of the pop

He's got a wonderful sense of rhythm


J-J-J-J-J Johnny

Won't you play your one-man band

J-J-J-J-J Johnny

Play me something that I can understand

J-J-J-J-J Johnny

Play me something that I can clap my hands


And he goes

Tell your ma, tell your pa

This old boy's gonna drive you so far

Everybody goes cruisin' on a saturday night


"Hello, my name's Johnny G and I'm going to be famous"


Johnny had a record but it just didn't sell

It didn't get promoted so it didn't do well

The radio said it was as funky as hell

I guess it's just a matter of timing

But Johnny's gonna make it

It's as plain as plain

And we can say we knew him

Before he made his name

Johnny's got his ticket

Catching every train

To where the spotlight's shining


J-J-J-J-J Johnny

Won't you play your one-man band

J-J-J-J-J Johnny

Play me something that I can understand

J-J-J-J-J Johnny

Play me something that I can clap my hands


And he goes...
