It's well known that Top of the Pops is all lip-synched, so Squeeze decided to parody this by trading instruments. Watch the bassist - he's actually the keyboardist and clearly isn't really trying to look like he's actually playing the tune.

I hate to say this, but "ready" and "telly" don't rhyme; it's more of a half-rhyme.

It's "windy common", a park-like place close to a residential area (there's one in Clapham, London, which is also mentioned in "Up The Juntion").

Never gave it much thought, but now that you mention it...you're right!
Leave it to Jools.

Thought as much. Jools always had good taste.
Thanx for the info. |
