Off the deep end "DFX" treatment of Nilsson's classic!
Instrumental Guitar Rock/Pop with a TWIST!! Plus some warped experimental Avant Garde side excursions for the musically adventurous!
Instrumental Guitar Rock/Pop with a "Twist"!
Story behind the song
Conceived February 2003. This is Take 1 Mix 1 Recorded February 2003 Sony DTC-700
No, this isn't 'Gilligan' dropping them, this is me making Harry Nilsson roll over in his grave with a total nonsensical 'DFX' rendition of the song.
Starts with standard repeating drum machine pattern of vibes, congas, bongos & the like; then a few layers of electric piano; then QUITE a few layers of various guitar "C7th" chords
Then I put the lime in the coconut, oh....about a GAZILLION times (give or take), with probably a mis-remembered line, as I THINK the line is "...you drink them both up....", though it sounds like I'm saying "BOWL" instead of "BOTH"!!
Then I cut to a non delay loop voice over with the "Doctor.....is there nothing I can take, etc...." line,(QUITE BADLY I may add!).
Eventually we get to the non delay loop guitar solo as usual, & of course the grand finale of ascending chaotic instrumentation, & the final line about.....coconuts...
....going....
..somewhere......!! :-o :-o
(No, 'Gilligan' STILL isn't dropping them!!) ;)
Lyrics
(all lines repeated ad infinite except where noted *
Lime in the coconut
you drink them both up
*I said 'Doctor'
is there nothing I can take?
I said,'Doctor'
to relieve this belly ache?
I said 'Doctor'
Waa waaaaa......!*
*Making Harry Nilsson roll over in his grave....*
CRAM THESE COCONUTS UP YOUR ASS.....!!
