And Frank didn't write that bit that you don't like, Jean; it's an old catchphrase. No wonder it reminded me of that other old catchphrase I quoted! |

Frank liked to record stuff like that. Kind of like John Aubrey and Gershon Legman: the value of it didn't matter, just that it shouldn't be allowed to die.
He had other lines based on catchphrases: Run to the toilet and comb your hair; Shake it more than three times and you're playing with it, while you're standing there.
and
Pretend to be Chinese,
(One-hung-low)
I'll make you wear red shoes
There's a cheesy atom bomb explosion
All the big groups use
I've heard both of these used in everyday speech or banter, and I think it's good that Frank's preserved them.
