Knebby Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Don't agree with a lot of those ^ He's saying "Just wanna piece of your Custard Pie" at the end, not "chewin' a piece" - yuk, gross. Also he says "play your mischief for me" not "just dream of me". Etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huw Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 He's saying "Just wanna piece of your Custard Pie" at the end, not "chewin' a piece" - yuk, gross. Sounds like "chewing" to me. Always has done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is your gig this Saturday 21/06/08? If so, a significant date for me. My sister's and her daughter's birthday! The longest day in the northern hemisphere and shortest down south. The summer / winter solstice. All we need now is a full moon., aaaah hoooo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slave to zep Posted June 20, 2008 Author Share Posted June 20, 2008 so ev, what do you think the lyrics are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evster2012 Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 so ev, what do you think the lyrics are? Since the vinyl days, I always sang "Just wanna piece of your custard pie" And on the last two, I distinctly hear an "I" before it. I just back-to-backed it from my Studio Remaster to my Mothership, and still think that's what it says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was 106 here yesterday, and projected to be even hotter tomorrow. Our first heat wave of the season. Couldn't tell mate it was pissin, down rain. As we are still in a drought (for seven years or so now), I'm not complaining. Hopefully you blokes will be spared from the usual bushfires. Anyway I hope every thing goes well on Saturday night. We expect a full report. Keep a weather eye out for those dern bootleggers! I can see it now Valhalla: Berserk Warriors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Since the vinyl days, I always sang "Just wanna piece of your custard pie" And on the last two, I distinctly hear an "I" before it. I just back-to-backed it from my Studio Remaster to my Mothership, and still think that's what it says. "I'd sure love a piece of your custard pie" I guess I should have quoted the whole line.
