World War III hovers over us like a black cloud, and China isn't far behind. But I'm going to talk about the odds rockers and the sawdust Caesars who are blind. There's a town called Brighton. It's by a deep blue sea. Leather jackets and Bill Haley records. Oh yes, that's all that the eye can see. Unless, of course, you're Rudolph Valentino. He's been a rocker forever. Now there was a maud named Tony. Let me talk about Tony now. Who had a bird named Jill. He used to ride her on his scooter. Yes he did. And this used to give her a very deadly thrill. And here comes the song. Now a group of wild rockers were on their way to Brighton town. And they saw our friends Jill and Tony. Yes they did. You know what right happened there? Why they mowed Jill and Tony down. And that night they had a council of war. And they're going to seek revenge on them. Oh they were too young to get such a horrible fate. They hadn't even seen the latest pop music magazines. No they didn't. And they had never ever been to the Orange Free State. And so a big crowd gathered and they started walking down those Brighton streets. They had chewing gum in either hand. We're going to drive the rockers into the sea. Oh yes we will. We're going to take them away from the land. And during this whole time a spaceship is watching the whole scene. And a Martian said to everyone. I think you should stop your fighting now. Remember that this rainbow is red white and blue and green and yellow. And don't forget about the purple cow. Ladies and gentlemen if you think this is a phonograph record you are perfectly right. The song is about over. The next track is a very good song. I thank you so much for listening to the only 81 year old hipster in this country. Thanks so much. Remember the house of the rising. Happy Easter. Happy Thanksgiving. Whatever happened to Ricky Valance? Whatever happened to... I can't do anymore or I'll start being dirty man.
