The fake ska song
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead
Pex Lives!

I agree. I love it. It's such a happy, positive song.Heston wrote: ↑13 Jan 2021, 7:20pmI really don't get the Ob-La-Di hatred. Yeah, it's a slight song but it's a totally wired performance and I love the laughing and clowning around in the background. This sounds like a band having fun, whereas a lot of the other songs on the album sound like jaded, miserable men doing solo projects. I think maybe the convoluted recording and Lennon's bashing of it don't do it any favours historically.

Sounds more authentic at the very least.

Curfews have been curbing
