Here's the fucking awful lyrics, in case anyone has pulled their own ears off and can't hear how crap they are:

Stuck inside these four walls, sent inside forever, Never seeing no one nice again like you, Mama you, mama you. If I ever get out of here, Thought of giving it all away To a registered charity. All I need is a pint a day If I ever get out of here.

Well, the rain exploded with a mighty crash as we fell into the sun, And the first one said to the second one there I hope youre having fun. Band on the run, band on the run. And the jailer man and sailor sam were searching every one

For the band on the run, band on the run, band on the run, band on the run

Well, the undertaker drew a heavy sigh seeing no one else had come, And a bell was ringing in the village square for the rabbits on the run. Band on the run, band on the run. And the jailer man and sailor Sam, were searching every one

For the band on the run, band on the run, band on the run, band on the run

Well, the night was falling as the desert world began to settle down. In the town they're searching for us every where, but we never will be found. Band on the run, band on the run

And the county judge, who held a grudge Will search for evermore For the band on the run, band on the run, band on the run, band on the run

Well, the undertaker drew a heavy sigh seeing no one else had come, And a bell was ringing in the village square for the rabbits on the run.

Third rate at best.

hahaha...

least I didnt say JET.

Well Micheal, I'm with you on this one, though I wouldn't necessarily buy the tune, seeing as how Paulie doesn't really need my money.

Let Me Roll It, from the album, is the one Macca song that I love though. A bit weird, that one.

What's so good about it?

Pretty average if you ask me.He and/or Wings did some better songs.Although not many.It's a happy video.Good times on the road 'n all that.Nice to see him in happier and younger times and all that before he met the evil Mills thing.Have always thought him a self important cunt since the Beatles ended but i wish him well all the same for his remaining years.God i'm feeling generous tonight - what's come over me?

"Band on the Run" and "Jet" are nice pop songs, really liked them when I was a kid (I thought it was "man on the run" at first). A lot of his other mid 70s and 80s stuff has not weathered well at all to say the least, so the Band on the Run album seems golden in comparison.

did the pollster also wake up to wogan the other morning? I was laying in bed thinking the same revisionist thoughts...

Ha ha you've outed him!

He gets all his ideas from Wogan.

I've got no beef with Terry,per se. Noel Edmunds is a bit of a tit though...He resides between all our ballbags and arse cracks.

Wikipedia him.Tells you there...

Ha ha I added that to the Urban Dictionary!

You did too!!

Perfectly scripted an all!! hahahaha.Brilliant!

I did it when I was pissed on Christmas Day, after your story on here.

Brilliant, isn't it! The fact that you can do it, not my entry. Most families play charades on Christmas Day. Me and our kid put filthy words on the interweb.

Good laugh though. We did ladybum an all.

You have to wait ages while the moderators approve the entries to make sure they're not unsuitable. God knows what they're looking for cos there's some right filth on there.

Well that has to be my favourite post of the year.. Done on Christmas Day,just makes it extra special..The First NO-EL..ey Edmunds...

Very fitting day for it!

Good to see the moderators never found it unsuitable...They would have a hell of a job trying to prove it was unsuitable though,it was a no brainer for them to be fair..Class!

I voted option c. why anyone would willingly listen to that crap is beyond me.

Bit arsh!

Fuck off is always the best option!!

Not looking good, Boaty.

What shall we make him do as a losers forfeit.

Name change?

Yes I think so.

I propose Boatraceface changes his name to Noel Edmonds on Sea for one week.

try removing the "uk." from the link.

band on the bum,,, sailor sams fave

sent inside forever

It's never wise to offer the 'Fuck off' option on such a serious poll as this... I'm all for democracy though,albeit at the expense of thoughtful opinion.

All right then, hands up who can't get the bloody song out of their head today.

Blimey! The Aye's are making up rapid ground on the Fuck offs since I last looked...

Everyone likes Band on the Run in the end,don't they,given time?

Hands up who now thinks they were a tad hasty with their Fuck off vote? C'mon,let's av yez...Have a heart and spare me a week of being Edmunds,and I'll stop being a knob.Deal or no deal?

No, its still a big fuck off here.

I even listened to the Frog Chorus, in an attempt to make it sound better.

'Pipes of Peace' edges it a bit.

Say,say,say,what you want Burt,but don't leave me with my.... ??I'm fucked if I can remember,but Jacko was involved was'nt he? Best left there that one if that fiend*featured,me thinks..

*alleged

Speaking of Noel Edmonds.....

Good one Burt

Liked Frankie Fraiser goin"Peepuwl luyk me sposed to be rarscuwls,bart isss not..it's yer Edmundses!"

I voted 'fuck off' as there is no option for I don't like it and I really mean I don't like it.

So, FUCK OFF!

You are charm itself today I see Jemma..I have feelings y'know! Your not still sore about the Gary Megson thing,are you? I smell a grudge..Some sort of retribution vote going on here.

Ok I'll belt up now..How many points would that give you on your licence IF it got logged? You ar'nt close to a ban or anything are you?

I'm fed up of my job anyway I'm going to start walking everywhere, I'll start on the streets of Horwich. Now what job involves street walking..?

Show off..I can't even bloody give it away!

crap song. it doesn't hold a candle to 'live and let die.'

hate it and what's worse, that "simply having a wonderful christmas time" song instantly came to mind. Jerk.

I voted fuck off because McCartney is a weazel faced toad, believes his own hype, lives in the past, pulls a stupid fucking face when he sings, is a sugar coated wanker.

i like it

it's about 4 songs in one

the band the beatles could have been

Maccas have a song? They are bad enough at burgers.

Always makes me think of jam rags... Paul McCartney... Now available with Wings...

It's about as interesting and exciting as Weetabix.Then again some people find Weetabix interesting and exciting.The song make me think of Weetabix for some reason.An average grey Monday morning eating Weetabix.That's how i'd describe the song

Aye, Weetabix are dead boring... Oatibix on the other hand rock... Which breakfast cereal floats your boat, folks?

Heard this in a Stone Roses documentary today. Worked quite well.

That would be"Blood on a Turntable" where it is describing the paint incident,with Gareth Evans being the band's victim.

Have you heard the KIllers version of this song yet? It's so overblown it's hilarious. There's even a barking dog in there somewhere - that must be a very bad taste dig at Macca's late missus the Lady Linda......

This is where Macca almost flushed his career down the drain:

a song that goes: "Gay, Gay, Gay, suck my cock..."

Indeed!

Wheres the i like to shag cripples option?
