Insane piss-taking (chipmunk) songs
It all started back in the mid '90s when whilst we were at school we started writing and recording songs about our teachers using the school's four-track recorder. However, due to the fact that half of us couldn't sing for toffee, we used to record our voices at a slower tape speed than the backing track, then bounce the final mix down at the higher tape speed again, resulting in silly chipmunk voices. Since then, we've acquired more up-to-date technology than the humble cassette recorder on steroids and a dusty old SM58, and we've even started singing properly... sometimes. We've written piss-takes about various train companies, McDonalds, the Fiat Uno, Upton Park in the east end of London, as well as more seemingly mundane inanimate objects like onions and cups of tea.

Story behind the song
I've no idea why we made this arrangement. It seemed like a good idea at the time...
Lyrics
Onions, lovely juicy baby onions, You can rub them on your bunions, And with the smell you'll have no friends. Onions, you can throw them at your brother: That's when red onions make stains on the floor. Onions, lovely juicy baby onions, If you chop them by the dozen You'll be booing all day long. Onions make your breath smell like a toilet, So don't eat onions when you're with friends. Onion!
