Frank kept remembering the story of Gautama and the mud pie. A little boy called 'Binky' was playing in the dirt with his friends when the Buddha passed by. The child was poor and had nothing to give to the Buddha so he offered him a mud pie. It was all he had and he gave everything. The heart gives. The fingers get dirty. Come on everybody - let's whistle! Lethbridge, gautama, isis, gog - magog...lethbridge, gautama,isis,gog-magig.
This triumphant foot stomping, hip thrusting,whistling anthem was recorded by FRANK FISH and his underpaid stooges the FINS way back in 1986ad. This song has recently been covered by hopelessly untalented, teenage blindfold underwater trapeze duo NIGE & TREV whose version can be heard their own childish Soundclick site:

Now cows have hooves and dogs have paws
and snooker champions have snooker balls
and fish have fins that how they swim
and if you didn't know that you must be dim
In a blue lagoon I see the water move
Is it a paw could it be a hoof?
No it's a fin zipping thru' the sea
and it has a strange effect on me
Oh! The Living World of Sea Creatures
Makes Me want to whistle...
Yes cows have calves and dogs have pups
and snooker champions win snooker cups
and fish lay eggs in the ocean
and whistling is a lot of fun
So whistle...
