Subject: RE: Spanish Nobillio From: Allan C. Date: 19 Apr 99 - 08:04 AM Vanessa, perhaps if you gave us the bit you remember it might help to jog our memories. For instance, it may be known under another name. Where did you encounter it? |

Subject: RE: Spanish Nobillio From: Vanessa Hand Date: 19 Apr 99 - 11:04 AM Thanks for the replies... I have been getting bits and pieces from people :) Here's what I have so far: There once was a Spanish Nobillio, Who lived in an ancient castillio. He was proud of his tra-la-la-lillio, And the works of his tweedle dum dee; Oh yes! The works of his tweedledum dee. (This is the missing part, something about going into town and finding a lovely lady) That excited his tra-la-la-lillio, And the works of his tweedle dum dee; Oh yes! The works of his tweedledum dee. He took her back to his castillio, And laid her upon his sofillio; Then inserted his tra-la-la-lillio, And the works of his tweedle dum dee; No/yes! (when two people singing) The works of his tweedledum dee. Nine days later he saw the doctillio; He had a bad case of (clap hands twice) -illio. All over his tra-la-la-lillio, And the works of his tweedle dum dee; Oh no! The works of his tweedledum dee. Now he sits in his ancient castillio, With a glum look upon his face-illio. No more proud his tra-la-la-lillio, And the works of his tweedle dum dee; Oh no :( The works of his tweedledum dee. |

Subject: RE: Spanish Nobillio From: Roger the aimmer Date: 19 Apr 99 - 11:32 AM See also Gay Caballero in the DT for a similar song. I vaguely remember an even ruder schoolboy version but can't (probably fortunately)dredge up the full details from my memory except he gave his "favourite friend" (euphemism) some pet name which now escapes me ( the end rotted as a consequence of his philandering as in the other versions) |

Subject: Lyr Add: THE SPANISH NOBILLIO From: Jim Dixon Date: 01 Oct 09 - 11:58 PM Copied from Folk Poems and Ballads: THE SPANISH NOBILLIO There once was a Spanish Nobillio Who lived in an ancient castillio. He was proud of his tra-la-la-lillio And the works of his razzle-dum-dee! One day he went to the theatillio, And there he saw a lovely dancillio, Who excited his tra-la-la-lillio And the works of his tweedle-dum-dee! He took her up to his castillio, And laid her upon his sofillio, And then inserted his tra-la-la-lillio In the works of her tweedle-dum-dee! Nine days later he saw the doctillio. He had a fine dose of clapillio All over his tra-la-la-lillio And the works of his tweedle-dum-dee! Now he sits in his lonely castillio, With a handful of cotton-wadillio, And he swabs off his tra-la-la-lillio And the works of his tweedle-dum-dee! |
