I AM T'LIZARD KING!

In 1956 ukulele ace George Formby took part in top secret drug tests. The results were filmed for a proposed Elstree Comedy entitled "Why DO You Look Like A Donkey Our Vera?".
It was a step too far for the cheeky chappie from Barnsley - the movie was scrapped and Formby never spoke of it again.... TURNED OUT STRANGE AGAIN MOTHER...

  • Great fake out.I can't beleive all the commenters thinking the song is really by George.The credits clearly state it's not.LOL!!

  • look up "Sex, Drugs, and Ukuleles". it's an off broadway show.

  • FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOKING CLASS IF YOU COULD SEE WHAT I COULD SEE WHEN IM DOING ACID HA HA

  • -_- remix of when im cleaning windows

  • Marmalade trees? Hmmm...It's been said that John Lennon was inspired by this to

    write Strawberry Fields Forever after hearing this.

  • Nice try. The Noel Coward version of "Rehab" has set the bar pretty high, though. I can't pass this on to my George Formby fan friend because it's not up to snuff. It's too scary. It's missing the ease of his phrasing, his innocent delivery. Would've been funnier with some of that.

  • SO TOTALY INSPIRED I THANK THEE PROFUSELY

  • I lold HARD

  • f**king genius

  • Oh Mother! Yes that's a great song but the video is a bit scary. Looks as if "George" is crunching those electric bees.
