Arthur Askey the Godfather of hip hop? Indeed, tis' the ultimate ironyArthur Askey in The Ghost Train, playing the part of comedian Tommy Gander, one of the funniest films ever! The song is called Seaside BandArthur Askey the Godfather of hip hop? Indeed, tis' the ultimate ironySeaside BandOnce, at the seaside, feeling very restlessI ran down tuppence and I rolled on the pier Hadn't gone far when the strains of musicFloated on the breeze and landed in my earI quickened up me steps for I love nice noises Very soon arrived right opposite the bandSaw the conductor on a lemonade boxWith his little baton stuck up in his right handOne two three four, off went the cornetFive six seven eight, the fiddles followed tooA man in the corner playing on the piccoloKeeping time with the sole of his bootRight behind him was a fellow with the tromboneBlowing like the devil with his cheeks out wideWorking so hard that both his little eyeballsLeft their sockets and stood outsideHanging on a rostrum, a drummer, very lonelyDrums all round like bees in a swarmLooking very cold with his nose quite scarletBanging on the cymbals to keep himself warmOpposite to him was the man with the toupeeSpitting down a reed - what a nasty man!Sitting next to him was a fellow with a French hornFull of soul and bitter beer, tuppence on the can Fellow with a cello, boom boom boom boomTrying very hard to saw it in twoHis pal with the double bass, cuddling it fondlyLooking like a camel with a dose of the fluMan with a piccolo, fed up with the dancingSick and tired of hearing the same old tootThought he'd like a change so he put it down beside himAnd then started messing with a full size fluteMan with the bassoon, nothing on his musicActed like a mute, never said a wordJust as I thought he was going to fall asleepHe picked up his bassoon and gave us all.... the....... birdThat's all there is here but the rest of the song goes like this.........Then a little man with walrus whiskersHow he got his breath, well I don't knowFound he got his fungus stuffed up the mouthpiece And wondered why he couldn't play his little oboe Man with the trombone lost his temperThought they could not hear him and said, 'Here goes'Took a long breath and threw all of his false teeth Right on the bridge of the conductor's noseThen the conductor, getting very angryRaised his other hand, with a rum-tum-tumCaused such a draught that the man with the harp Went clean through the air and fell through the drumBang bang bang went the man with the cymbalsToodle-oodle-oo went the flute so gayFiddles and violas screaming like the windAnd the cornet broke his promise, trying to reach top A What a pandemonium everybody differentEach with the other one, trying to competeStrange to relate it must've been a flukeBut they all finished dead on the same down-beatI Thang You [ More Detail ]
