Haven't heard this for years, not since a memorable night with the university linguistics society when this went down a wow with the postgraduate students of functionalist language science, along with I've Lost My Mummy, Mad Passionate Love, Puff the Magic Dragon, Runaway Train, Starkle Starkle Little Twink and several others of that noble genre. Great fun!!

[ozgribbo]

My favourite comedian. He had the world's worst joke.

"I walked into a bar last night.

Ouch!

It was an iron bar!"

He didn't have to say anything, just stand there and you started to laugh.

ommy was a true funny man, the only man who can just walk on the stage and people would laugh, love this record

[GreenGiant2007]

'Oh Don't jump off the roof, Dad

You'll make a hole in the yard

Mother's just planted petunias

The weeding and seeding was hard

If you must end it all, Dad

Won't you please give us a break

Just take a walk to the park, Dad

And there you can jump in the lake.'

[TFAVio]

What an absolute genius. The song popped into my head and I had to have a quick google of it, not heard it for over 15 yrs. RIP Tommy you were one of the true greats.

[UpMyOwn]
