Which part, the bit where he'll say absolutely anything to get a shag or the bit where he wishes for the end of time so he can end his time with her?
Or was it the baseball commentary?
Two down, nobody on, no score, bottom of the ninth,
There's the windup, and there it is, a line shot up the middle,
Look at him go. This boy can really fly! He's rounding first and really
Turning it on now, he's not letting up at all, he's gonna try for
Second; the ball is bobbled out in center, and here comes the
Throw, and what a throw! He's gonna slide in head first, here he
Comes, he's out! No, wait, safe-safe at second base, this kid
Really makes things happen out there. Batter steps up to the
Plate, here's the pitch-he's going, and what a jump he's got,
He's trying for third, here's the throw, it's in the dirt-safe at
Third! Holy cow, stolen base! He's taking a pretty big lead out
There, almost daring him to try and pick him off. The pitcher
Glances over, winds up, and it's bunted, bunted down the third
Base line, the suicide squeeze is on! Here he comes, squeeze
Play, it's gonna be close, holy cow, I think he's gonna make it!
Commentry was by Phil Rizzuto, who was a real baseball commentator and former short stop for NY Yankees.Yorick wrote: Fri Jan 21, 2022 11:07 amgremlin wrote: Wed Apr 21, 2021 10:15 amStop right thereYorick wrote: Wed Apr 21, 2021 10:12 am

Apparently is was full of rude innuendos which didn't carry over the pond to us.
The giggle zone?KungFooBob wrote: Fri Jan 21, 2022 11:35 am Surely the whole getting to 3rd base, etc.. means more innuendo wise to the septics than it does to us?
Baseball is used as a metaphor for sex in the song. The young man almost makes it home, but is thrown out at the plate when the girl decides she won't have sex with him. Rizzuto claimed he did not know his part would be used to refer to sex, but Meat Loaf claims he knew exactly how they were going to use it. Rizzuto tried to distance himself from the song when he got angry letters from some Yankee fans with conservative values. Meat Loaf asked him to tour with him, but Rizzuto turned him down.gremlin wrote: Fri Jan 21, 2022 11:40 am As a Professor of Linguistics at Saff Lundon University, Shitville College, I can advise, after several years of pains staking research, that it simply meant that he got stinky fingers and then had to stop.
Yup, the explanation needs an explanation.
