Derek and Clive are the alter egos of the late Peter Cook and Dudley Moore (of Not only but also plus various other 60s satirical shows).
They produced a series of comedy albums in the early 70s which were very funny but also extremely rude even by today's standards. It was pretty clear that a lot of the recording sessions were done when they were 'under the influence'. Like comedy such as Monty Python and The Office the humour was an acquired taste but they were very popular in the 70s.
For those that don't know it, and can't be arsed to fathom out all the single liners in the thread so far.....
As I was walking down the street one day
I saw a house on fire
There was man, shouting and screaming at an upper-storey window
To the crowd that was gathered there below
For he was sore afraid
Jump! You fucker, jump!
Jump into this here blanket what we are holding
And you will be all right
He jumped, hit the deck, broke his f***ing neck -
There was no blanket
Laugh?! We nearly shat!
We had not laughed so much since Grandma died
Or Auntie Mabel caught her left tit in the mangle
We are miserable sinners
Fi-i-ilthy fuckers
Ahhhrrrr-soles
I remember my Dad being quite upset - not at the language but because he maintained they sung an almost identical song in the Navy during WW2 and he didn't like Cook and Moore claiming they'd written it.OMG I nearly Shat relieving this! As a teenager, this was the funniest thing I'd EVER heard! I remember learning it word by word as it was mandatory to know these chants in my group! lol!
Oh little Flo...
