      My names George - I'm no high stepper
      My droning ruined Sergeant Pepper

      Behind the kit that's Ringo nodding
      His drumming's terminally plodding

      John’s songs are great - there’s no’ a bad yin
      Apart from dreary dirge Imagine

      I’m Paul and marvellous for my age
      Hair dyed, voice shot - I’ll hog the stage

    This theme has really brought out the intellectuals on Facebook. They're the ones with the crayons.

    Wiggle like a rolling houp

    For the full 38 minutes he is on stage. Worth every one of the 8070 pennies. Might as well use them up before independence.

      You're a poet yourself, Norrie - you have the English language jumping through hoops.

    The lyrics are based on a poem by Dadaist Hugo Ball. The meaning is in the meaninglessness!

    I think he was referring to Ian McCulloch from Echo & The Bunnymen? You're obviously not wired ;-)
