Story behind the song
A schizophrenic friend of mine used to have a habit of repeating 'rubber ducky' and once when I was stoned I decided that latex was rubber and could be extracted from such a toy and that this would make a weird subject for a song. It has been used on several TV programmes including S4C's 'Y Ty' (the House) drama series.
Lyrics
Extracting the latex from a rubber ducky
Gets you in a mess, yes very mucky
We'll give you all a try if you're very lucky
At extracting the latex from a rubber ducky.
Rubber Ducky is never gonna stop
Rubber Ducky could take us to the top
Rubber Ducky can really make some noise
'Cos Rubber Ducky's just one of the boys!
Sussing out a means of sustenance
Do what you like it's a new dance
Come on, babe, why don't you take a chance
At sussing out a means of sustenance
Rubber Ducky is never gonna stop
Rubber Ducky could take us to the top
Rubber Ducky can really make some noise
'Cos Rubber Ducky's just one of the boys!
Chatting up the birds in a British bird-book
Selecting all the goers by the way that they look
I fancy the skylark and you can have the rook
Chatting up the birds in a British bird-book
Rubber Ducky is never gonna stop
Rubber Ducky could take us to the top
Rubber Ducky can really make some noise
'Cos Rubber Ducky's just one of the boys!
Picking out the bones of a herringbone jacket
Doesn't make a noise
It doesn't make a racket
It could get somewhere if you'll only back it
Picking out the bones of a herringbone jacket.
Rubber Ducky is never gonna stop
Rubber Ducky could take us to the top
Rubber Ducky can really make some noise
'Cos Rubber Ducky's just one of the boys!
