| 421564 | 2006-01-16 03:45:00 | If like me you have totally enjoyed the wacky music on the summer program, here are the lyrics to 2 of the funniest songs . . . . (To the tune of "I'm Looking Over A Four-Leaf Clover") I'm looking over my dead dog Rover Who I hit with the power mower One leg is missing The other is gone The third leg is scattered All over the lawn No need for explaining The one leg remaining Is spinning on the car port door I'm looking over my dead dog Rover Who I overlooked before . I'm looking over my dead dog Rover Who I hit with the power mower Rover's not eating He no longer barks He hit the propellor And turned into sparks No need for explaining There's no dog remaining He's part of the grass you see I'm looking over my dead dog Rover Whom I sent to eternity . ---------------------- Dead puppies, dead puppies, Dead puppies aren't much fun . They don't come, when you call, They don't chase squirrels at all -- Dead puppies aren't much fun . My puppy died late last fall, He's still rotting in the hall -- Dead puppies aren't much fun . No, no, no . . . Mom says puppy's days are through, She's going to throw him in the stew -- Dead puppies aren't much fun . Dead puppies, dead puppies, Dead puppies aren't much fun . Dead puppies, dead puppies, Dead puppies aren't much fun . Dead puppies, dead puppies, Dead puppies aren't much fun . |

| 421565 | 2006-01-16 03:54:00 | Do you have something against dogs? :rolleyes: I wish national radio would run podcasts of their shows like RNZ international does . I really like their current affairs shows, but I can only stream them, I would prefer to get them via podcast on my PSP . -Qyiet |

Have you been reading the Metla thread which is full of garbage anyway when it comes to lyrics. Thinks about posting "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" or Chicken Little in this case. The sky has not yet fallen. |

| 421569 | 2006-01-16 10:21:00 | Do you have something against dogs? -Qyiet I love dogs. More particularly Samoyeds, Collies and Labradors. Don't want to know about Poodles. I can't have a DOG here at the moment but we have two cats. It happens to be one year today when we had to put Mushka down who was a cat. Letters in the Wood. Wherever I go she follows My house is her domain There isn’t a nook or cranny Where she hasn’t staked her claim Even though she has left me There isn’t one tiny place Where I don’t sense her presence Or remember her cheerful face All the years we spent together Remain buried in my past The memories are like diamonds Forever they will last She couldn’t speak my language She knew that I understood Scratch marks on the door Are her letters in the wood. There is no way I would find the earlier lyrics funny. |

| 421570 | 2006-03-04 12:12:00 | Hi guys... Phil O'Brien here - the man responsible for those incredibly bad-taste (read: funny) songs on Matinee Idle. Who on earth had the time to sit down and transcribe the lyrics to "Dead Puppies"? I think it's great that someone did, but you really should get out more... Anyway, interesting comments on this thread. Dead Puppies, Cousin Mosquito (parts 1 AND 2!!) et al - they'll all be back NEXT summer, along with more assorted ephemera.... Any and all suggestions welcome. Cheers Phil O'Brien (and James Thomson who's currently cycling like a maniac around the North Island...) |

| 421571 | 2006-03-04 19:41:00 | Thanks Phill, but I only cut n pasted them off the net :) I loved your show and I notice that slowly the aftenoon Nat Radio seems to be sliding in the direction that you forged out. A wonderful breath of fresh air into what was becoming boring. |

| 421572 | 2006-03-04 19:57:00 | Hi Phil Welcome to PressF1 . Glad to know you will be back next summer . And I only got to hear part 1 of My cousin the mosquito, so maybe next summer I can complete my musical education . :lol: Loved the show, but I am self employed, so you guys cost me a lot of time and money . I had to turn the radio off at times so I could concentrate on work! Boring! :waughh: Anyway, more power to your elbow (or something) . Bad taste rules! Thanks for lots of summer fun . |

| 421573 | 2006-03-04 21:26:00 | This is what "I'm looking Over a Four Leaf Clover" should sound like: www.redhotjazz.com take 4. Jean Goldkette and his Orchestra in 1927 with Bix Beiderbecke cornet, Joe Venuti violin, Frankie Trumbauer C-Melody sax, et al, with Billy Murray doing a dreadful vocal :) Listen carefully to Bix doing his thing on cornet in the background at about 2min30sec ... |
