i love thi version, its the best, a blast from the past xxxx Thanks Rolf, yr great lol xx After all these years is till remember the words and moves, lol at 38yrs old hehe
I have always loved this song and when I was in primary school we had to sing this and what a muddle it got so silly as it went on and some words were made up...Such a fun song...:)
Great to have the words (with or without spelling mistakes, such as "Catactacus", and "breeches" being spelt 'britches') - I used to come straight in at the last verse, partly because my 'singing' leaves a lot to be desired, but also because I kept thinking that 'the faces of the ladies..." got their own verse, but always knew I was wrong, somehow. And, of course, I thought it was more impressive to jump straight in, without the build up...
i can keep up until he gets to fascinating witches etc etc
on a similar theme, when you sing 'one man went to mow', try singing 'one man and his supersonic sausage dog with rubber suckers on his feet and metal caps upon his teeth went to mow a meadow!' =)
rolf harris creatively is something quite incredible. His music is original, gives so many smiles upon faces, and his formal paintings, so many that he had done before his fame pretty much close to to artistic genius in the painting world of oils. He also appears like a happy man that doesn't criticise or look down on others thoughts feelings or beliefs. He seems to me like an all round wonderful lovely old chap! lol All Hail The King! Hail King Rold the First! lol
Thanks Milesy009, 107,000 views and no one noticed before you! I copied the lyrics from a web site but I didn't realise it was spelt wrong. Nothing I can do now though!!!
omg i went on holiday to thorpe park (haven site) and tehy had this it was soo funny there was a drunk women whon tried to do the dance but couldnt :L i was pissing myself laffing!! :D
i got woken up this morning at 6:45 for the second morning in a row by this song -_-
with slightly adapted lyrics.
tomorrow i am going to get up at 6:40 pretend to be asleep then when i hear "well the ladies of the harem of the court of raman romanus" i will jump up and start throwing things at her :)
anyway this song is hilarious at a reasonable time with the real lyrics :D
That guy Harris was one of the best entertainers ever, everything he did captured ones attention, you had to watch him, you always expected and got VALUE for money.
I used to go to Bonkers in Liverpool, years ago, an the last song of the night would be this one. We'd dress up in the wigs an glasses to do it on the bar an everythin! Best times ever!
Thumbs up if you listen to this in 2012!
