On Again On Again - Jake Thackray[00:00:01]
I love a good bum on a woman [00:00:18]
It makes my day[00:00:20]
To me it is palpable proof of God's[00:00:21]
Existence a posteriori[00:00:23]
Also I love breasts and arms and ankles [00:00:25]
Elbows knees[00:00:28]
It's the tongue the tongue the tongue[00:00:29]
On a woman that spoils the job for me [00:00:30]
Please understand I respect and[00:00:32]
Admire the frailer sex[00:00:33]
And I honour them every bit as much[00:00:36]
As the next misogynist[00:00:38]
But give some women the ghost of[00:00:39]
A chance to talk and thereupon[00:00:40]
They go on again on again on again [00:00:43]
On again on again on again on [00:00:45]
I fell in love with a woman with[00:00:57]
Wonderful thighs and hips[00:00:59]
And a sensational belly I just never[00:01:01]
Noticed her lips were always moving[00:01:02]
Only when we got to the altar and[00:01:04]
She had to say I Do[00:01:06]
And she folded her arms and gathered[00:01:08]
Herself and took in a breath and I knew [00:01:10]
She could have gone on again on again [00:01:12]
On again till the entire[00:01:13]
Congregation passed out and the vicar[00:01:15]
Passed on and the choirboys[00:01:16]
Passed through puberty[00:01:18]
At the reception I gloomily noted[00:01:19]
Her family's jubilant mood[00:01:20]
Their maniacal laughter and their[00:01:22]
Ghastly gratitude[00:01:25]
She talks to me when I go for a shave [00:01:36]
Or a sleep or a swim[00:01:38]
She talks to me on a Sunday when[00:01:39]
I go singing hymns and drinking heavily[00:01:41]
When I go mending my chimney pot[00:01:43]
She's down there in the street[00:01:45]
And at ninety-five on my motorbike[00:01:47]
She's on the pillion seat[00:01:48]
Wittering on again on again [00:01:50]
On and again and again[00:01:51]
When I'm eating or drinking or reading[00:01:54]
Or thinking or when I'm saying my rosary[00:01:56]
She will never stop talking to me [00:01:58]
She is one of those women who[00:02:00]
Will never use three or four words[00:02:01]
When a couple of thousand will easily do[00:02:03]
She also talks without stopping[00:02:15]
To me in our bed of a night[00:02:16]
Throughout the sweetest of our[00:02:18]
Intimate delights she never gives over[00:02:20]
Not even stopping while we go hammer[00:02:22]
And tongs towards the peak[00:02:24]
Except maybe for a sigh and a groan[00:02:26]
And one perfunctory shriek[00:02:28]
Then she goes on again on again [00:02:30]
On again on and I must[00:02:31]
Assume that she has never noticed[00:02:32]
That she's just been interrupted[00:02:34]
Totally unruffled she is and[00:02:37]
As far as I can see[00:02:39]
I might just as well have been posting a[00:02:40]
Letter or stirring up the tea[00:02:42]
She will not take a hint not once[00:02:53]
She's made a start[00:02:55]
I can yawn or belch or bleed or faint [00:02:57]
Or fart - she'll not drop a syllable[00:02:59]
I could stand in front of her grimly[00:03:01]
Sharpening up an axe[00:03:03]
I could sprinkle her with paraffin [00:03:04]
And ask her for a match[00:03:06]
She'd just go on again on again [00:03:08]
On again even more[00:03:09]
The hind leg of a donkey is peanuts for her [00:03:11]
She can bore the balls off a buffalo[00:03:13]
Mother of God I cried one day [00:03:15]
Oh let your kingdom come[00:03:17]
And in the meantime Mother [00:03:19]
Could you strike this bugger dumb [00:03:20]
Well believe it or not she appeared[00:03:34]
To me then and there[00:03:36]
The Blessed Virgin herself in answer[00:03:37]
To my prayer - despite the vulgarity[00:03:39]
Shimmering softly dressed in blue[00:03:41]
And holding up a hand[00:03:43]
I cocked a pious ear as the[00:03:45]
Mother of God began[00:03:47]
But she went on again on again [00:03:48]
On again on and I[00:03:50]
Will have to state how very much[00:03:51]
I sympathise with the rest of the family[00:03:53]
Give some women the ghost of[00:03:56]
A chance to talk and thereupon[00:03:57]
They go on again on again on again on again [00:03:59]
And again and again and again and again[00:04:02]
They will go on again on again on again on again [00:04:05]
On again on again on[00:04:08]
