…tell her I love her"
On the “for unlawful carnal knowledge” thread this song popped into my head. Problem is, I can’t remember who recorded it. It was a popular concert song, one of those that everybody liked to sing along with. 80’s or early 90’s, I think. Sounds like something the Tubes would do, but I found nada on their site.
Help!

I know what I need to know
And
I know what I want to know

It’s an April Wine song. I don’t remember when exactly it was recorded, however.

i was about 7 years old when i first heard that song. i didn’t have a clue what it meant and was singing it loudly (along with my 5 year old sister)
my mom came charging in and slapped us both without explanition.
she apologized later when she heard the song herself and told us what we were really saying.
but i can’t answer your question. i never knew who sang it.
I’m pink therefore I’m Spam
oh, the song is around 20 years old
Ok, I did my homework. The song was recorded in 1982, and it’s from their CD “Power Play”.
I do not know the song, but my mother told me about this bit from the Soupy Sales show. It sounds like the song writers were just recycling.

Thing 1–the Soupy Sales story is an urban legend.
I don’t know if it was an original or not, but it was recorded by the Poster Children, on their 1991 “Daisychain Reaction” Album.
Here’s a link to it on Tunes.com–give it a listen.

dammit. try again…
OK. Let me rephrase it then.
I don’t know the song but I recall my mother telling me the urban legend about the Soupy Sales show. It sounds to me like the song writers were just recycling.

Back in the mid to late 1940s, my obnoxious little chums and myself would sing this little ditty to embarass our little girl classmates—that was in about the third grade, as I recall. So it is a dern sight older than twenty years.
