When she took THAT RIDE(in the buff,of course)...some guy did not follow instructions and peeked(Peeking Tom).If memory serves right,he was punished by having his eyes burned out with with a redhot iron... Incidentally, Peter and Gordon did a little ditty about the Lady...you would need Sherman, Mr.Peabody and their "Wayback Machine" to go find that song...sometime in the sixties..just as the Beatles were getting started if I remember correctly....
Okay,grammar mavens,since a female danceur is a danceuse,and a female chanteur(singer) is a chanteuse...does that mean a female voyeur is a voyeuse? A Peeking Jane(or Peeking Thomasina) as it were?
And a female connessieur(excuse any spelling errors...my French is a bit rusty)...would she be a conneseuse...or just a female connessieur?
Incidentally,there are also some Godiva chocolates ...delectable. |

Dear bnix,
No " Wayback machine " required - just a Yahoo search:
Seventeen, a beauty queen
She made a ride that caused a scene
In the town
Her long blonde hair
Hangin' down around her knees
All the cats who dig striptease
Prayin' for a little breeze
Her long blonde hair
Falling down across her arms
Hiding all the lady's charms
Lady Godiva
She found fame and made her name
A hollywood director came into town
And said to her
"How'd you like to be a star?"
"You're a girl that could go far"
"'specially dressed the way you are"
She smiled at him
Gave her pretty head a shake
That was Lady G's mistake
A-hey-hey-hey
Lady Godiva
He directs certificate 'X'
And people now are craning their necks
To see her
'cause she's a star
One that everybody knows
Finished with the striptease shows
Now she can't afford her clothes
Her long blonde hair
Lyin' on the barber's floor
Doesn't need it long anymore
Lady Godiva
Regards,
John |

The man with the answers.In case any person remembers there was also a song,by the J.Geils band about a guy's "true"love"...one day he opens a magazine and there in living color is his"true love'...as the centerfold.
Also,a song by the southern rock group .38 Special...can't remember the name of the song...but it was about girls jello-wrestling(do they still do that?)The title of the song was not "Little eEgypt"...but something similar...Zechiah's avatar put me in mind of the song... |
