Good artist, art artist, not music artist, too
Now I'm not saying you're not a good music artist, I was just trying to clarify what I was talking about by saying you're a good art artist rather than a good music artist, which is also probably true but not what I was talking about.
Aw screw it, welcome aboard.

"Hmm that's OK as far as it goes, but I need X and Y too."

"We don't do X. And I'm not sure why you think you need Y--if you run things correctly you should never need Y. We don't and most of our customers don't."

"OK, thanks for playing, we're going to go with somebody else."

"Oh, OK, do you mind if I ask why?"

"Because we want X and Y, and you won't do them, and your competitors will."

"OH OH no wait wait wait we can find somebody to do X!!! Give us another chance."

"Too late."



Oh, sorry for the threadjacking. Welcome to the Cellar!! UT is right about Dr. Demento.

Thank you again! I am enjoying my brief, oddly timed visits here. Numerous obligations including the attending to of a small person who is very interested in the computer prevent me from spending as much time on the infernal machine as I'd like. Will meet you all in the ether sooner or later.

Cheers!

I can remember a couple:

The opening one is:

'Twas on the good ship Venus

The figurehead
Was a Whore in bed
The mast an erected penis

I knew it as:
'Twas on the good ship Venus
By God you should have seen us
The figurehead
Was nude in bed
Sucking a red hot penis....

But I suppose there aren't official versions of this sort of song!

Another verse from memory:
The Captain's wife was Mabel
Whenever she was able
The second mate
She'd fornicate
Upon the galley table

Rude songs like this don't tend to be sung at matches -although some football chants are suprisingly witty. They are sung travelling to & from the game (while mooning out of the back window of a coach) and on drunken nights out.
