John: **rolls eyes** "Oh for christ's sake..." Paul: **continues singing** "...BRAAAA!!!! La la life goes on!" John: "not another fruity song for grannies." Paul: "c'mon, John..." John: "pffffffff." Paul: **sings** "....waiting at the door and as he gives it to her she begins to sing. sing!" John: "no." Paul: "oh damn it!! **music stops** Take 2!" John: **grunts** Paul: "from the top!" **John reluctantly sings his part for the 2nd thru 156th times. Music starts & concludes** Paul: "Oh blah dee, oh blah dah... braaaaaa! la la la la la..if want to have some fun, oh blah dee do dah! ho ho ho!" John: "you're going to get sued." Paul: "no i'm not... Wait...oh shit." And Paul did get sued.... by a Jamaican guy who coined the phrase "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" and Paul didn't give him credit. The song was recently on a "50 Most Awesomely Bad Songs ... Ever" list. Serves you right, Paul. END |
