Who let you out? I'll have the nurse increase your dosage of Amisulpride from 700 to 800 mg a day.

But if we get rid of it, we can't use it for insults:

You scurvy knave!
Avast there, ye scurvy dog!

etc

So we need an alternative. How about halitosis?

Why do I have a sudden urge to go buy some anti monkey butt powder? Something is not right about this thread!

Do you have uncontrollable itches???

Wow, I can't believe all this joking around. THIS IS A SERIOUS THREAD - you can see that now by the fact that I just used "all caps" and bolded it, right? Klaasvaak has taken time out of his busy day to let us know about an important issue, please show some respect. It's not all about goats and wheelie bins... Wink

Wheelie Bins?

If a baiter can get a scammer to crawl in to a wheelie bin and show that he is sucking on a lemon, I will fund a premium membership, or a copy of Shiver's book. (The book BTW is pristine condition - never opened. I have several copies I won in an auction)

Surely, but at times they are in questionable places!

Sorry Klaas! I'll leave your thread alone now!

Lyrics and Chords

/ Entire song is just C7, picked /

Brother bought a coconut, he bought it for a dime
His sister had another one, she paid it for the lime

She put the lime in the coconut, she drank 'em both up (3x)
Put the lime in the coconut, she called the doctor, woke him up, and said

Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take, I said
Doctor, to relieve this bellyache, I said
Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take, I said
Doctor, to relieve this bellyache

Now let me get this straight
Put the lime in the coconut, you drank 'em both up (3x)
Put the lime in the coconut, you called your doctor, woke him up, and said

Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take, I said
Doctor, to relieve this bellyache, I said
Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take, I said
Doctor, to relieve this bellyache

You put the lime in the coconut, you drink 'em both together
Put the lime in the coconut, then you feel better
Put the lime in the coconut, drink 'em both up
Put the lime in the coconut, and call me in the morning

Brother bought a coconut, he bought it for a dime

You put the lime in the coconut, you drink 'em both up (3x)
Put the lime in the coconut, you're such a silly woman

Put the lime in the coconut, you drink 'em both together
Put the lime in the coconut, then you feel better
Put the lime in the coconut, drink 'em both down
Put the lime in the coconut, and call me in the morning

Woo-oo, ain't there nothin' you can take, I said
Woo-oo, to relieve your bellyache, you said
Woo-oo, ain't there nothin' I can take, I said
Woo-oo, to relieve your bellyache, you say

Yeah-ah, ain't there nothing I can take, I say
Wow-ow, to relieve this bellyache, I said
Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take, I said (3x)
Doctor, you're such a silly woman

Put the lime in the coconut, you drink 'em both together
Put the lime in the coconut, then you feel better
Put the lime in the coconut, drink 'em both up
Put the lime in the coconut, and call me in the mo-o-ornin'

Yes, you call me in the morning
If you call me in the morning I'll tell you what to do {repeat to fade}
