Rebus

There is one *really* annoying song that, fortunately, has finally been dislodged from my brain. The words are:

Fish heads
Fish heads
Roly poly fish heads
Fish heads
Fish heads
Eat them up
Yum

If you do know which song I'm talking about, you have my deepest sympathy. If you don't know, you *DO* *NOT* want to find out, and I'm sorry I even brought it up. Really.

Oh damn, I can hear the song in my head again.

"I took a fish head
Out to see a movie
Didn't have to pay
To get it in!"

*snickers* That song's pretty cool.

Was it really TMBG who did the Fish Heads song? Or was it just one that someone had put under the wrong name on Napster?

I'm almost enritely and completely positive that it was not a TMBG song - at least not officially...??

They might have done a cover of it at some stage...But then I could be entirely wrong...

thankyou for putting me out of MY misery - For years I've not been able to remember more than the first two lines! Who was it by? I keep thinking 'kissing the pink' but I'm not convinced. I do remember the very odd video though.

It couldn't have been from the early 80's...the video made a regular circuit on the Alternation/SuperRock shows in the 90's. It seemed to be a good part of that era...

****Net search follows ***

It would appear as though it was 1978 - Barnes & Barnes, Fish Heads, but has appeared (and is available from Amazon) on Dr Dementos Greatest Novelty Records of all time series

**** End of net search ****

Never heard it myself, but judging by the interest, am now going to have to expose my brain to it. Is that wise?

I want that compilation. Do you think you could buy it in shops, or at least get them to order it in? smiley - silly
