Sad day

I remember walking on the wild side (well, perhaps not as much as Holly from Miami FLA ) in 1973. Also how much of an impact the Transformer album had - before that, we thought Bowie was a maverick, a one-off, then along came Lou....

[Coinery]

Big thinker, not from the mould! Shame!

Very sad as we all grow old gracefully.

"take a walk on the wild side"

[Peckris]

"take a walk on the wild side"

Holly came from Miami FLA

Hitch-hiked her way across the USA

Plucked her eyebrows on the way

Shaved her legs and she was a he

They don't write songs like that anymore!

I am not so sure the rest of the lyrics would be quite as socially politically correct these days.

What, you mean

Candy came from out on the Island

In the back room she was everybody's darling

But she never lost her head

Even when she was giving head

She says, "Hey, babe,

Take a walk on the wild side."

Said, "Hey, babe,

Take a walk on the wild side."

And the colored girls go

"Doo di doo di doo do do doo..."

Hmm, yes I see what you mean

But as a teenager hearing those lyrics I thought they were funny as all hell.

"Funny ha ha" or "funny peculiar"?

[scottishmoney]

Ha ha.

For some reason I can seem to get this out of my head at the moment, so might as well add it to the appropriate thread.
