Ya know, I actually bought and had that 45 when I was a teen...kinda took is as similar to Screamin' Jay Hawkin's "Put a Spell On You," a novelty item, but I bit. Even my father thought it was cool and don't know how THAT happened...

"...and I can see the men in their big white coats and they're coming to take me away HA HA!..."

Damn, how is it I remember this?

Sadly, I probably could recite the lyrics to "Does Your Chewing Gum Lose Its Flavor On The Bedpost Overnight"...

RIP Jerry, you were a bright light for comedy at that time...

:(

My best friend bought that 45. I preferred the flip side. It was backwards.

You could never get away with releasing something like that today.
