Testo Rock Notes - Monty Python
Testo della canzone Rock Notes (Monty Python), tratta dall'album Monty Python's Contractual Obligation Album
Rex Stardust, lead electric triangle with Toad the Wet Sprocket
Has had to have an elbow removed following their recent successful
Worldwide tour of Finland. Flamboyant, ambidextrous Rex apparently
Fell off the back of a motorcycle. "Fell off the back of a
Motorcyclist, most likely." quipped ace drummer
Jumbo McCluney on hearing of the accident. Plans
Are already afoot for a major tour of Iceland
Divorced after only eight minutes, popular television singing star
Charisma changed her mind on the way out of the registry office
When she realized she had married one of the Donkeys by mistake
The evening before in LA's glittering nightspot, The Abattoir
She had proposed to drummer Reg Abbott of Blind Drunk after a
Whirlwind romance and a knee-trembler, but when the hangover lifted
It was Keith Sly of the Donkeys who was on her arm in the registry
Office. Keith, who was too ill to notice, remained unsteady during
The short ceremony and when asked to exchange vows began to recite
Names and addresses of people who also used the stuff. Charisma
Spotted the error as Keith was being carried into the wedding
Ambulance and became emotionally upset. However, the mistake was soon
Cleared up and she stayed long enough to consummate their divorce
Dead Monkeys are to split up again, according to their manager Lefty
Goldblatt. They've been in the business now ten years, nine as other
Groups. Originally the Dead Salmon, they became for a while Trout
Then Fried Trout, then Poached Trout in a white wine sauce, and
Finally Herring. Splitting up for nearly a month, they reformed as
Red Herring which became Dead Herring for a while, and then Dead
Loss which reflected the current state of the group. Splitting up
Again to get their heads together, they reformed a fortnight later
As Heads Together, a tight little name which lasted them through
A difficult period when their drummer was suspected of suffering
From death. It turned out to be only a rumor and they became Dead
Together, then Dead Gear, which led to Dead Donkeys, Lead Donkeys
And the inevitable split up. After nearly ten days they reformed
Again as Soul Meunière, then Dead Soul, Rock Cod, Turbot, Haddock
White Bait, The Places, Fish, Bream, Mackerel, Salmon, Poached
Salmon, Poached Salmon in a White Wine Sauce, Salmon Meunière, and
Helen Shapiro. This last name, their favorite, had to be dropped
Following an injunction and they split up again. When they reformed
After a record-breaking two days they ditched the fishy references
And became Dead Monkeys, a name which they stuck with for the rest
Of their careers. Now, a fortnight later, they've finally split up
