Forgot to attach this. The original artist was Nervous Norvus, but this
is the version I grew up with - one of my favorite records at age 6 along
with "The Purple People Eater".
That is Scatman Crothers on vocals, also seen in "Silver Streak" "The
Shining" and the "Chico and the Man" TV show in the 70s. (That should
make it on-topic for the group).
