Ditzy Posted June 9, 2010 Author Share Posted June 9, 2010 Yes Ms Macbeth, that's the kind of stuff, thanks. I also thought of "Get Happy" by Judy Garland (also covered by Zoe Birkett) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoddyHolder Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Here's a nice one: And in the death as the last few corpses lay rotting on the slimy thoroughfare The shutters lifted in inches in temperence building high on Poachers hill And red mutant eyes gazed down on hunger city No more big wheels Fleas the size of rats sucked on rats the size of cats And ten thousand peoploids split into small tribes coveting the highest of the sterile skyscrapers Like packs of dogs assaulting the glass fronts of Love-me-avenue Ripping and re wrapping mink and shiny silver fox, now legwarmers Family badge of sapphire and cracked emerald Any day now! Nice upbeat little ditty eh? ...should go down well Ah Mr Jones at his best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solomo Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Joni Mitchell......Big Yellow Taxi. A classic to the informed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BasilRathbon Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Joni Mitchell......Big Yellow Taxi. A classic to the informed. The problem with that is that it's a song in which Joni complains they 'Paved paradise to put up a parking lot', a measure which actually would have alleviated traffic congestion on the outskirts of paradise, something which Joni singularly fails to point out, perhaps because it doesn't quite fit in with her blinkered view of the world. Far better to try one of the catchy toe-tapping numbers by upcoming Sheffield beat combo That's Never A Real Horse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms Macbeth Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Yes Ms Macbeth, that's the kind of stuff, thanks. I also thought of "Get Happy" by Judy Garland (also covered by Zoe Birkett) And 'The Trolley Song' also by Judy Garland. I could have danced all night - The King and I Hope you find what you're looking for! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
