You know that song "Poetry in Motion"? ....Can't remember who sang it....someone like Bobby Vee...or Bobby something...

When I was a kid I thought he was singing..."Oh, a tree in motion!" ....as a child I wasn't familiar with the phrase, so assumed he was on about walking trees! LOL

Anyone remember Paul Weller and the Jam's 'All around the World'... "All over the country, we want a nude erection!" :)

I recall hearing Shania Twain singing "If you want to touch her arse" on her "Come on Over" album - quite an invitation.

Er......wise words there mate.
