(The Wild West Routine)
Airdate: 03/16/83
from "Video Spotlight"
Featuring: Louise English, Corinne Russell, Jane Leeves, Jane Conoway, Gillian Adams, Elfrida Ashworth, Cheryl Mortimer & Nikki Critcher
"Lady Godiva" is actually "The Wild West" and features Benny and company in a Wild West setting. There are plenty of great girls in this routine, including Louise English, Jane Conaway, Jo Thomas, Gillian Adams and Corinne Russell. Over the years it was edited in syndication, but with the success of the A&E DVD releases, we should see this released intact.
(Words & Music by Shel Silverstein, 1972)
Hey, Lady Godiva, ridin´ through our town
Naked on your big white horse
With your long hair hangin´ down.
Lady Godiva, you say you´re frightened and so shy.
I hate to bust your bubble, but you
Sure picked a funny place to hide.
Hey, Lady Godiva, lookin´ for a place
No one knows your body
And nobody knows your face.
Lady Godiva, you wanna be loved
For what´s inside.
I don´t know much about horses, but you
Sure picked a funny place to ride.
Every man´s a clutchin´ hand,
Reachin´ out to grab you.
Every man´s a quiverin´ lance
Tryin´ hard to stab you -- don´t let ´em nab you.
Hey, Lady Godiva, lookin´ kind of scared.
You showed ´em all your talents,
And nobody seems to care.
Lady Godiva, you say that noone wants to ride?
Come to think it over,
You may have picked the perfect place to hide.
Hey, Lady Godiva, lookin´ kind of scared.

And nobody seems to care.

You may have picked the perfect place to hide.
On the stage:
Louise sings... wearing a tuxedo. The girls
wear ponchos they remove, revealing outfits
similar to the red hot outfits.
Every man... and every woman,
want the same thing.
Every grandpa... and every grandma,
want the same thing,
Coochie, Coochie...
Coochie, Coochie...
(Backing Vocals...)
Tommy Cooper... wants the same thing
Mr. Rigby... and Miss. Jones... wants the same thing
Coochie Coochie...
Coochie Coochie...
Tommy Cannon... and Bobby Ball...
want the same thing...
Coochie Coochie...
Coochie Coochie...
Louise... (spoken)
"Aha... just like that... or it could be like that...
I like that... it's very visual that..
I really like that... I really...
(Louise throws away the Fez)
Man!!...., MIss Jones, MIss Jones, My God that's very visual, yes, My God...
You wouldn't catch Miss Jones wearing one of those you know...
oh no she wouldn't wear it, but my God that be fun tryin'...
Oooh, I'm excited, Tommy I'm excited...
She'll go for me, Tommy She'll go for me...
what...?... You said I could have her Tommy... you little liar...
for me... tell me Tommy...
deep down inside you REALLY HATE me...
what?... for me Tommy?... all for me?
OH, Rock on, Tommy! Right!
On behalf of all these ladies here...
these exponents of the Arthur Terry bickerie...
Terry Biss... Dancing! I thank you, I thank you,
Once again I thank you, Rock on Tommy!!
(The Angels Dance and there is a showdown between Benny and Bob Todd; At the end everyone dances in a circle around the Gorilla outside the saloon.)
(slightly faster to give the song a "giddy" feeling.)
