enthusiastic BOS from me as well.

This one is great!   The Sound played a 70 set last week (?) featuring this one and I rewound it and played it like three times.

In 1999, Meredith Brooks ("Bitch") released a cover of this, with Queen Latifah making a guest appearance.  It was horrid.
“The choir of children sing their song.  They've practiced all year long.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.”

That Mungo Jerry Line "Life's for living, yeah, that's our philosophy" reminds me of my hometown's motto:

"Webster: Where life is worth living"



If you knew Webster and the surrounding towns, you'd know how funny this was on all levels.
