Guest Posted March 24, 2021 Posted March 24, 2021 (edited) When I got to know this song (a B-side collected on the cassette version the Standing On A Beach singles compilation iirc) I didn't have a clue what it was about. Most of a lifetime later, a YouTube comment explained it to me. To be fair, dentistry isn't typical rock music subject matter..... ....or is it? Perhaps there plenty of other songs on this theme which have similarly escaped my notice? Edited December 7, 2024 by Munurmunuh Quote

Huge Hands Posted March 24, 2021 Posted March 24, 2021 I remember having a Barron Knights skit of Boney M's "Rivers of Babylon" on 7" single when I was a kid. I seem to remember the lyrics started off: There's a dentist in Birmingham He fixed my crown And as I slept He filled my mouth with iron...... 1 5 Quote
