MODERATOR!!! Give Jangar a kick up the rear please! :haha: :jester:

I am beginning to think that this is an "anglicized" version for Broadway audiences from shows like "Wait a Minim" or Minim Bili in which case it could be somebody like Julie Covington, his wife Zelide Jeppe. I can't really see the point of it being performed in SA where Ag pleez is almost a national anthem.

That's right, Jangar said above that it is a woman with a Johannesburg accent. Hardly Anglicised eh Lance?
JANGAR, the MODS are after you, get over here! NOW!

Just wondered because it was originally performed with a South African cast....and just the changes to the title would suggest that it had been anglicized as few Brits at the time would have recognized the word "ag"

JANGAR! W A K E U P!

:eek:

This took longer than I expected....

Here are the lyrics:

Oh please daddy won't you take us to Inanda
All six, seven, of us. eight, nine, ten...
The Horsey boys will all be there
The Goodman brothers what a pair
and we can get our picure on the social page again...

Champagne, caviar, polo and Jaguars
Garden parties, debutants and French liquer
Life so boring for a gal who cannot join the social world
With first nights, dimple Hague and gowned by Dior

Oh please daddy won't you fly us of to London
First class of course in the 707
we're sure sure to make the Margret set
find some titled boyfriend yet
To dance at the Savoy will be positively Heaven

Champagne, caviar, polo and Jaguars
Garden parties, debutants and French liquer
Life so boring for a gal who cannot join the social world
With first nights, dimple Hague and gowned by Dior

Oh please daddy let's go skiing at Saint Morits
with Mary Lou and you know who and the upper 10
If we don't break our arms and necks we're sure to charm the other sex
and when the season's over we'll go Boeing back again

Champagne, caviar, polo and Jaguars
Graden parties, debutants and French liquer
Life so boring for a gal who cannot join the social world
With first nights, dimple Hague and gowned by Dior

Oh please daddy if we can't go off to London
or spend a month in Paris when the weather's fine
if we can't induldge in winter sports
or cruise around some foreign ports
won't you buy me just a teenie weenie diamond mine

Champagne, caviar, polo and Jaguars
Garden parties, debutants and French liquer
Life so boring for a gal who cannot join the social world
With first nights, dimple Hague and gowned by Dior

Oh please daddy...


Voertsek (- the r) !!!!!!


Ag sies Koekie
just cut out all that nagging
pasop now hey, just remember I'm your pa
I'm sommer fed up with your cheek
and that fancy way you speak
That blerrie school that finished you has finished you klaar

Popcorn chewing gum (chewing gum)
Peanuts and bubblegum (bubblegum)
Ice cream, candy floss (candy floss) and eskimo pie

Ag Daddy how we miss nigger balls, liquorice
pepsi cola, ginger beer and canada dry

Thanx Lance for not giving it away

and the song is buy???????????
