Andrew 'the von' E in american football shocker!!!!!

Got any interesting thoughts on a set of lyrics? Any that don't involve the word "indeed"? Find yourself struggling to decipher all those obtuse references Von makes? Read "1959 And All That" and still no clearer? Nope, us neither. Postcards found lying in a skip around the back of the Chemists can be found here... Don't say you weren't warned.

ok, maybe some of our american cousins (coz they all are, arn't they (i've seen jerry springer!!!) :smile:) could help with this one.

american football, what's it all about, i mean, football?¿? you play with your hands for a start!!!

ok, anyway, in the early eighties andy was a little more in love with the usa then he pretends to be today, and i can & will prove it beyond reasonable doubt (which is almost like no doubt only half as sexy :wink:;))

exibit a)

Wide Receiver (early demo)

[wide receiver?¿? you don't get those in proper football, only american football, yes?¿?]

You say
Where is my believer
Waiting for the sign
[some sign like 'hut hut hut 25 25 000 hut' perhaps?¿?]
Those feet off the ground
[jumping for the, the, ball (even if it isn't round)]
...

... the skies go wild
[fireworks, used at every american & canadian outdoor & indoor sporting event i've ever witnessed (for amusement no less!!!)]
Tattered and torn your feet never bleed
[ill fitting shoes i believe, or perhaps someone that does a lot of running in the aforementioned ill fitting shoes]
You say never mattered ...
... is over and the hour is ...
[american football games take an hour?¿?]

And where's your wide receiver
[ha ha!! there you have it, the QB looking for the wide receiver no less]
Over the line
[out of play, stop the clock, next down]
Where's your wide receiver
[ha ha!! there you have it, the QB looking for the wide receiver no less]
Over the border
[do they american football in mexico or canada?¿?]
Where's your wide receiver
[as before]
Over the line
[as before]
Where's your wide receiver
[as before, a bit blind this QB perhaps?¿?]
Over the edge and
Too far forward
[the crappy wide receiver made an illegal play again, next down]
Where's your wide receiver
Over the line
[out of bounds again, lets hope the draft brings you better luck next year]

[Repeat to fade]

so, there you have it, andrew 'the von' E in american football shocker!!!!!



:P

An hour!!!! an hour!! they're there all fecking day. The crowd take BBQ's and the like. They keep having breaks in between extremely short burst of running about. I mean fer cring out loud they measure plays in yards and inches. If they get it 10 yards thats quite good (first and ten....oh my god what AM I babbling on about??)

Saying that anything with THAT amount of lycra wrapped around tightly honed thighs is worth watching :razz:

MMMnnnn 'tight ends'...LMAO

I have been told that Wide Reciever is a fake demo, and by people entirely other than the Sisters. I have no evidence for this however, apart from the fact that the rest of the "Shadows of Angels" bootlegg is well shady too. Dunno really...Doesn't sound much like them to me.
