"I've suffered for my music - now it's your turn"

[Oeditpus Rex]

4. The Smothers Brothers did a version of that

They'd do a couple of choruses with "My old man's a _____," then Tommy would come out with "My old man's a negro..." and Dick, of course, would stop the song.

"Tommy, your old man wasn't a negro because my old man wasn't a negro!"

(*Classic Tommy look of befuddlement*)

"No wonder mom always liked you best!

:D



Anyway, I can't find a video for this Bernard Bresslaw classic (covered by the Rutles, and recited hilariously by Richard Haydn in the "Dick Van Dyke Show" episode "The Return of Edwin Carp"), but here're the lyrics:


You need feet
to stand up straight with
You need feet
to kick your friends
You need feet
to keep your socks up
And stop your legs from
fraying at the ends

You need feet
to walk to Scunthorpe
Or to dance
the hoochy-coo
Yes the whole world needs
feet for something
And I need feet
to run away from you
