Rutland Weekend Television: The Fabulous Bingo Bothers and Protest Song

Описание к видео Rutland Weekend Television: The Fabulous Bingo Bothers and Protest Song

From the famous RWT episode guide:
The emcee, now completely surrounded by flowers, introduces the Fabulous Bingo Brothers [Zoot Money and John Halsey], a pair of low-key, black-and-white raincoated m@ng@l@ids in a lavatory who mumble out a song about a donkey. Then -- this is the odd part -- Bob Harris, the REAL Bob Harris shows up, and introduces as a closer Neil, in cap and shades and singing his old staple, the Protest Song (parental control lyrics version). He gives a peace sign and exits awkwardly. The emcee, with (goddamn it!) even MORE flowers, closes down RWT. Roll end credits.

Neil Innes: Uh...(tuning guitar)...uh...(still tuning guitar)...uh, this next song is a protest song...(even more tuning)...uh...(tunes some more)...uh, ladies and gentlemen, I've suffered for my music. Now it's your turn...

All the prophets of doom
Can always find room
In a world full of worry and fear
Tip cigarettes
And chemistry sets
And Rudolph, The Red-Nosed Reindeer
So I'm goin' back
To my little ol' shack
And drink me a bottle of wine
That was mis en bouteille
Before my birthday
And have me a fantastic time!

Rain on a tin roof sounds like a drum
We're marchin' for freedom today ... hey!
Turn on your headlights and sound your horn
If people get in the way

Let me turn you on
To the Chromium Swan
On the nose of a long limousine
Even hire it for the day
It is somethin' to say
But what the hell does it mean?
I may be accused
Of bein' confused
But I'm average weight for my height
My phil-o-so-phy
Like colour TV
Is all there in black and white

RAI... Rain on a tin roof sounds like a drum
We're marchin' for freedom today ... hey!
Turn on your headlights and sound your horn (honk honk)
If people get in the way
