Remember Desmond Dekker and Israelites?
Very difficult lyrics to understand. Just came across this -
03-02-2010
Rated 0 This was used in a very funny 1980s ad for Maxell cassettes - a man was shown standing in the street holding hand-written cards with lyrics on them, à la Bob Dylan. The written lyrics were as follows:
"Get up in the morning Sleeping for bed, sir Sold out to every monk and beef-head Oh! Oh! Me ears are alight!
"Why find me kids? They buck up and a-leave me Darling cheese-head It was yards too greasy Oh! Oh! Me ears are alight!"
and finally
"At least I think that's what he said. But I'll have to hear it on Maxell to be sure!"

I look at the various song lyrics sites more and more often to find out what songs are actually saying. Is that a sign of becoming less young?

I do it a lot too... just out of interest.

If you look up the actual lyrics of this one you'll find different versions.
