Pizzicato Five - Twiggy Vs James Bond (Twiggy Twiggy)

I forgot how much I loved this song. It's so damn cheerful.

Re: Pizzicato Five - Twiggy Vs James Bond (Twiggy Twiggy)

At last the lyrics:

"Sanjikan mo matte ita no yo
Watashi neko to issho ni

Twiggy no mini skirt de
Twiggy mitai na pose de
Twiggy no mini skirt de
Twiggy mitai ni yassepochi no watashi

Sono toki denwa no beru ga
Watashi neko mitai ni shabetta
Terebi no volume sagete
Watashi uso mitai na koe de

Twiggy no mini skirt de
Twiggy mitai na pose de
Twiggy no mini skirt de
Twiggy mitai ni yassepochi no watashi"

and the translation:

I was waiting for about three hours
My cat and I

At the time the phone rang
And I chatted away just like my cat
I turned down the tv and
Talked in a fake voice

In a twiggy mini-skirt
In a twiggy-like pose
In a twiggy mini-skirt
Skinny like twiggy, thats me

Brilliant

I have only ever heard this in Beavis and Butthead (back in the day) - they actually didn't diss this, one of the few music videos which escaped unscathed........
