Is Nick Taylor still around? I believe he made this song
back in the 70's and it was banned from the SABC -
he used UGLY words like "donner that bleddy yankee" and
"go out and moer all the oukies next door"
There's also a new version on Jakaranda currently -
sounds like Leon ran out of ideas....

Saw him a few years back (post elections) but not since. Although rumor has
it that he has changed his surname to Mansfield. <grin>

Its easy to change your surname, but he'll have to gain half a ton
before he can pass for Mansfield.
Jeremy Taylor was that guy who did the Joko Tea adds a decade ago:
Bigger holes, more flavour etc.

He was also the star of the Leo McKern production, 'Wait a minum'.
Terrific play, after South Africa, it played in London for two and a
half years and then went to America. It seemed Jeremy caused a lot of
friction with the female cast and is alleged to have gone 'through'
every one of them!
Anybody got the record of 'Wait a minum'? If so, Pleeeeze contact me
direct!

Here's hoping this "old ballie" helps............
I'm listening to the song right now (sung by Jeremy Taylor) and am copying
down the words ass I write - i.e. with many stits and farts (or fits and
starts - whatever)
>I got a few more, maybe some other old bally can remember the rest

Here goes.......................................
Ag pleeeeze Daddy, won't you take us to the Drive-In,
all six, seven of us - eight, nine, ten.
We wanna see a flick about Tarzan and the Ape men,
And when the show's over you can bring us back again.
Chorus:
Popcorn, chewing gum, peanuts and bubble-gum
Ice-cream, candy floss and Eskimo pie
Ag Daddy how we miss,
Nigger-balls and liquorice
Pepsi-Cola, Ginger beer, and Canada Dry
Ag pleeeze Daddy, won't you take us to the Fun Fair
We wanna have a ride on the bumper cars
We'll buy a stick of candy floss
And eat it on the Octopuss
Then we'll take the Rocket Ship that goes to Mars
Chorus:
Ag pleeeze Daddy won't you take us to the wrestling,
We wanna see that ou called Sky-High Lee
When he fights Willie Liebenberg
There's gonna be a murder,
'cos Willie's gonna donner that Blerrie Yankee
Chorus:
Ag pleeeze Daddy won't you take us off to Durban,
It's only eight hours in the Chevrolet,
There's spans of sea and sand and sun,
and fish in the aquarium,
That's a lekker place for a holiday
Chorus
Ag pleeeeeeeeeeeeeze Daddy...........
VOETSEK !
Unfortunately in this performance, he doesn't sing this last verse - but as
I recall, it goes something like this............
Ag siestog Daddy, if we can't graft to Durban ......
Or go and see a film,
life's a heck of a bore
If you won't take us to the zoo,
then what the heck else can we do
But go on out and moere all the oukies next door
Chorus

>There was also a northern suburbs version :

Oh please Daddy won't you take us off to London

Chorus:
Champagne, Caviar, Polo and Jaguar
Garden parties, debutantes, French liqueur
Life's so boring for a gal
who cannot join the social world

It's blerry obvious we got sum reeeel old toppies out there. Meaning we
wozn't old toppies THEN, but we shore is NOW.
Woz the ref to Hubbly Bubbly thet cort mah atenshun. Mah god, ah sed to
mahself, remember THEM. Grannadilla, they woz.
End then ah thort, nah wayte a bit ou bees, jus heng on a mo en hold the

know? (Instant, hey? Ennyone out there remember those other "instants"
lark Bev and Ricory, which woz LIQUID instant coffee extrack wot you put one
teaspoon in boiling water. Nevver reely cort on, did thay?)
Ennyway, beck to the Hubbly Bubbly. The grannadilla one woz Pep-a-dilla.
So wot, may ah orsk humbly, if it's not too much trubble for some oke out
there to refresh mah memmery, woz the flavour of Hubbly Bubbly?
End while we are on the subjeck, ennyone still drinking Cream Soda. Mah
God!!!
Of corse, wot I reely warnted to saay woz thet the immortal Ag Pleez Deddy
came from a 1961 revue corled Wait a Minim, et the Intimate Theatre in
Johennesberg. It was a bleddy good show, end although Ag Pleez Deddy sort
of eklipsed the other numbers, the El Pee is well worth heering, if yew ken
evver fahnd it.
End perheps the most thoughtful number woz this one, also from the pen end
voice of thet sayme Jeremy Taylor, entitled "Confession."
Everyone I just don't know why
I'm singing you this song
God knows that I wouldn't hurt a fly,
And never would do you wrong.
But society keeps telling me
I simply don't fit in,
I wasn't you see, cut out to be
A respectable citizen.
At balls and dinner parties,
I'm always the only one
Quite unable to make
Polite conversation;
My questions are too simple
to be misunderstood,
Like what's your name,
Do you smoke a pipe?
Or, Do you believe in God?
Not to be sensible
is a sin that reprehensible,
and that is why they say that I
Am not respectable.
Well Mr Jones I'll make no bones
Please listen to my plea.
I love your daughter Sally and
I'm sure that she loves me.
If you agree I think that we
should very soon be wed
I promise to love and honour her
Until the day I'm dead
This marriage, said he,Is a certainty
Provided you can guarantee
To give your wife an easy life
And lots of security.
In truth I was unable
To fulfil this demand
And straightway was the victim of
A severe reprimand
And as he took his shotgun
From off the kitchen wall
I quickly beat a swift retreat
And vanished down the hall.
Next night as I lay and cried
Sally came to my bedside
And now I'm guilty as you see
Of immorality.
When Adam loved Eve they said that he
Was very much to blame
If it had been me beneath that tree
I would have done the same
Psychiatrists always insist
There's something wrong with me
My eyes wont rest on a woman's breasts
with equanimity
Forgive me, madame, if I stare
But I love the colour of your hair
My soul is quite out of control
My heart, beyond repair.
The vicar and congregation of the local parish church
Show an inclination to leave me in the lurch
Ever since at Sunday School
I couldn't tell right from wrong,
And rated higher than the Book of Isaiah,
the Song of Solomon.
I realise I didn't oughter
Fall in love with the vicar's daughter
Now that she has wounded me
For all eternity.
Well, one fine day I'll make my way
to 10, Downing Street
Good day, I'll say, I've come a long way
Excuse my naked feet
But I lack, you see, the energy,
to buy a pair of shoes,
I lose the zest to look my best
when I read the daily news;
for it appears you've got an atom bomb,
That'll blow us all to hell and gone
If I've gotta die then why should I
give a damn if my boots aren't on?
Three cheers for the army,
and all the boys in blue
Three cheers for the scientists
and politicians too
Three cheers for the future years
when we shall surely reap
All the joys of living on
a nuclear rubbish heap
I would fight quite willingly
in the forces of Her Majesty,
But not for the price of sacrificing
all of humanity.
My song is done there's only one
more thing for me to say,
Forgive me if I've bored you stiff,
I'll soon be on my way.
But by and by I'll have to die
and leave the things I love,
And in disgrace come face to face
with the good Lord up above.
Who knows if he won't punish me
with a million years in purgatory, For blasphemy impurity
and general insanity.
But when amongst the angels
I come to take my place,
I hope you will not think it
Too much of a disgrace,
If I present to God on high
A humble offering
Of fifty years of sweat and tears
and the songs I've loved to sing
And if in heaven it should prove true
that God loves the musicians too
We'll sing and play and dance all day
And no one there will say us nay
And all our troubles will fade away
We'll never again be blue.
End if anyone out there hes gort the el pee, ah would love to hev the words
of the "Black White Calypso."

this guy, pretending to be an Afrikaans Policeman would say 'Did you got a

And, does anyone remember the Pepsi-Cola jingle of the fifties?
Pepsi Cola is the very finest cola,
It's the very finest cola you can get.
If you bet that Pepsi Cola is the very finest cola
You can bet you were a gonna when you bet.
Aye aye, give it a try
Pepsi Cola is your very best buy.
When I returned to England I knew all the words and the tune and thought, I
wonder if Pepsi in South Africa has close ties to Pepsi in England? If not,
could I sell this Jingle to Pepsi in England, and would they find out before I
could get paid and disappear? Ek was bang! :-( OK, I was fifteen and money at
that time was scarse and more important than moralty.
I mean, knowing what I knew now, things would have been different.
I'd have gone ahead, they wouldn't want the public to know they'd been conned
by a fifteen year old <grin>

Friedman whose speciality was imitating the various SA accents from ultra
English "Lewer Hoyton" or "Grewt Constantiah" through the "Did you gorrer
larcence" cop, the would be Afrikaner actor who changed his name to Gert van
Aswegen because he thought Louwrens Olivier unsuitable; Friedman's most
enduring creation was Jonny Pieters, the Coloured from Cape Town, and of
course he did a black accent as well.
Anyone out there remember Cecil Wightman and Snoektown Calling? Pip
Friedman was on that as well.

Journey into Fear. The guy who introduced it, can't remember his name, left SA
in 1954 (October) to go to Canada (via the UK) to try to get into Canadian
Television. I met him on the boat (Durban Castle) and he taught me a game
called Maltese Draughts which I suspected he may have made up :-)
