And even funnier when we try to sing along with a song we do not know the lyrics to. The toolah, roohla's I knew. And also "we are far to young and clever. And of course the "poor old Johnny Rae" There might me a few more snippets that I had managed to decipher, but basically the song was a complete mystery to me. Thanks Dani, for a really good and thought-provoking post!!!<BR/>Oh and a bit of a PS, I loved the video too.SuzanSayzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09545369244955105549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1158470695500481257.post-73602343276734389652008-07-18T17:43:00.000-05:002008-07-18T17:43:00.000-05:00Oh yeah, I told Keith to come check out your post!...Oh yeah, I told Keith to come check out your post! :-)Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16144713142229970998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1158470695500481257.post-67136405739222038302008-07-18T17:42:00.000-05:002008-07-18T17:42:00.000-05:00Soo...The Candy Man isn't about actual candy?
