CAMP: "A cornucopia of frivolity, incongruity, theatricality, and humour." "A deadly, winking, sniggering, snuggling, chromium-plated, scent-impregnated, luminous, quivering, giggling, fruit-flavored, mincing, ice-covered heap of mother love." "The lie that tells the truth." "Ostentatious, exaggerated, affected, theatrical; effeminate or homosexual; pertaining to or characteristic of homosexuals."
Im only surprise that the Spicy Sea Songs wasn't performed by the Beavers?
ReplyDeleteI myself love some nice dirty seas shanties.
"It was on the good ship Venus
DeleteBy Christ, ya should've seen us
The figurehead was a whore in bed
And the mast, a mammoth penis
The first mate's name was Cooper
By Christ he was a trooper
He jerked and jerked until he worked
Himself into a stupor
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
There was fuck all else to do!"
Me too. Jx

ReplyDeleteNothing here makes any sense whatsoever! Why is Whoopee John "The Great One"? Why are The Beavers pretending to play instruments while dressed as Austin Powers on a path in Hampstead Heath? Why is John Thomson from The Fast Show on the cover of the last LP? Jx
DeleteI grew up with that Whoopee John album. My mother would put it on the hi fi in the dining room while we cleaned house on Saturday mornings. Nightmares are made of these things...
ReplyDeleteTraumatic childhood, then? Jx
Delete"Moderna Tider" ... sounds like a vaccine cocktail.
ReplyDeleteIt could have ben worse - they could have called the album "Astra Zeneca"; which actually sounds like some mad old lady on a cable channel with a crystal ball and a phone-in line. Jx
