Not bad. Can't help thinking Ray Davies could've written something more killer like this with Ian Dury...

I saw Ray during Storyteller Tour in NYC: small ,old theatre in the Village. Man, he was charming and at the top of his form; one of the few literary AND musical geniuses around today

Oh and as for the clown who commented on Ray not knowing the words.. Ray sang this song during his Storyteller tours and the book is merely a prop as the tour was based on his book XRay and included readings from the book, usually about the song he was about to sing....Why, where he wrote it etc...

The 1st time I ever heard this song in 1996 I was actually on Highgate hill ! Ray sang it live on BBC Radio 2 prior to performing it at The Cambridge festival. I knew he was going to be on so stopped my car to listen, remarkably on Highgate Hill.

My advice, buy and listen to 'Storyteller'! I almost pissed myself laughing when I heard "the third single (dialogue)" :D

You'd think he'd at least have the bloody decency to LEARN the lyrics before he performed the bleedin' song onstage! Readin' 'em from a book looks so unprofessional! :/

Cool...I adore UK 'county' music, reminds me of Ian Dury.
