Note: The date is approximate. It could be off by weeks. However, I have decided to put it on the hottest day of the decade (in the UK), since I remember it was extremely hot on this day.
It was a sunny summer's day. The back garden at the Nest was a nicely mowed lawn.
The purple and green tent had been set up on it.
I rested in the tent, in the nice warm sun, for hours. I was using the Overgod's old red and black 1980s cassette player, listening to some of the Overgod's Elvis
tape. It had plenty of other tunes on it though, including some by the band ‘Stray Cats’. This one became the theme of the day because I kept listening to it, and it suited the sunny weather.
At some point, I invented a scary
music, to suit a scary insect crawling. The numerical graphic score of it is:-
3 2 1 2 3 2 1 2 3 2 1 2 3 2 1 2 3 2 1 2 3 2 1 2 3 2 1 2 3 2 1 2... etc.
Almost like the Gaster theme that Toby Fox made at a later date, but that starts half way through the beat instead and is much less dramatic, but more mysterious.
In the tent, I was reading the ‘Laurel and Hardy’ comprehensive book, which had pictures from all the ‘Laurel and Hardy’ films. Part of today's title was named after the summary of the ‘Laurel and Hardy’ episode titled ‘Their Purple Moment’.
So now you understand the meaning of the title of the day. Which you probably didn't before you read this entry.
Ubangi Stop - Misheard Lyrics (You Bang Ee Stop)
OOooh, OOooh, AAAAAAH!
Well I rock over Italy and I rock over Spain.
Rocked in Memphis to the all the same.
Till I rocked to Africa(r),
Rolled all the ship,
See men mates doin' it all of the skip.
All of the wheel, look over the swamp,
And seen them cats doin' the you bang ee stop.
You bang ee stop,
Rakey n Roll
Beats can stop that you ever retold.
You bang ee stop,
You bang ee stop,
When heat it drives and you bang his wife.
(WAAAAAAAH!)
Well I look up a cheek, he invited tha imp,
He said you bay jazz session wider ba gimp.
(WAAAAAAAH!)
He handed me a tomtom. I picked up the beat.
That crazy thing, as shins to my feet.
Rocked and rolled.
Skipped with smile,
The you bang ee stop, man, you bang ee stop.
(WAAAAAAAH!)
You bang ee stop,
Rakey n Roll
Beats in stop that you ever retold.
You bang ee stop,
You bang ee stop,
When heat it drives then you bang his wife.
(WAAAAAAAH!)
(WAAAAAAAH!)
Well, I rock all night and part of the day.
Had a good rockin' time when that she's gonna mate.
We will mate in good time,
And get in the know,
When the captain said, sorry we gotta go, well,
Well that's all right baby now,
Go right ahead, gonna you bang ee stop,
Till I roll over dead.
You bang ee stop,
Rakey n Roll
Beats in stop that you ever be told.
You bang ee stop,
You bang ee stop,
When heat it drives then you bang his wife.
(WAAAAAAAH!)
OOooh, OOooh, OOooh, OOooh, OOooh, OOooh, OOooh, OOooh, OOooh...
