Um, look again at what you typed.

You spelled it wrong. I have no idea what shurg means, but that is why Mystik and Jon are teasing you.

As far as this song, I love it, but the whole thing about buying a vowel never meant more than that to me.

I absolutely love this song.. I think one of the fun things about Al's music is you can just enjoy it or you can get into it on all sorts of levels.

Al's type of humour is very college-y and actually a pale shade of blue if you look closely, but if you dont wanna, thats just fine, Its only innuendo after all, make of it something or nothing, but to my mind the context in this is quite clear.. he's gonna take advantage of being stuck in a closet *in a dream* remember, not real life, with a pin-up girl.
Al's never really been a kid's entertainer has he though? this ought not to shock anyone.
its no worse than the self service pumps LOL!

ludo, do you think it is clear that he specifically means "O" or is he just inventing a new slang "buy a vowel from" in place of "fornicate with"?

I think he specifically means O.. and have always thought so from day one..


...... and its *very* clever.. and very funny imo

Yeah it's a great joke. I didn't get it until about a month ago, or whenever I posted so on this thread.
