Jonathan King admitted that this was basically just a spoof of 'poetic' lyrics that had become the rage during the folk-rock scare of 1965. While he never had another US hit, he went on to a long career as a musical prankster in the UK, releasing a lengthy string of novelty records (including an 'ooga-chaka' cover of 'Hooked On A Feeling' years before Blue Swede) under a wide variety of studio aliases. He also discovered (and named) Genesis, but even I don't detest Phil Collins enough to call that his biggest prank of all. -- AWR "Everyone's Gone To The Moon" (Jonathan King) Intro: Ebmaj7 Ab Bb [2X] / / / / / / / /
