Trouble

Here's another terrible blast from the past. As I was going through some older stuff (from the 90's and 80's) I couldn't help but really chuckle at much of the stuff I found. So many one hit wonders, I wonder if that's any different now with radio and record companies being far more aggressive when promoting an artist. Then again, anyone remember Vanilla Ice? He even got his own movie!

Surprisingly, the band Shampoo the band are still going. "Trouble" would seem to have been their big break, but I've not heard much from them since. But it would seem that their sense of humor (they were influenced by those such as the Sex Pistols all the way through to Take that) would be on par with mine.

Uh-Oh, We're In Trouble,
Something's Come Along
And It's Burst Our Bubble
{Yeah, Yeah!} Uh-Oh,
We're In Trouble,
Gotta Get Home Quick
March On The Double!

We've Been Out All Night
And We Havn't Been Home,
We're Walkin' Through The Back Streets
...All Alone! The Party Was Great
Yeah, We Were Really Frilled!
And When We Get In
We're Gonna Get Killed!

Uh-Oh, We're In Trouble,
Something's Come Along
And It's Burst Our Bubble
{Yeah, Yeah!} Uh-Oh,
We're In Trouble,
Gotta Get Home Quick
March On The Double!

We Couldn't Get A Cab,
'Cause We Ain't Got No Money!
We Missed The Last Train
But We Thought....
Don't Worry!
We'd Get The Night Bus
But The Night Bus Never Came!
We're Eight Miles From Home
And It Started To.....

Uh-Oh, We're In Trouble,
Something's Come Along
And It's Burst Our Bubble
{Yeah, Yeah!} Uh-Oh,
We're In Trouble,
Gotta Get Home Quick
March On The Double!

Yeah Yeah, Trouble...

We Tried To Steal A Car
But We Soon Realized,
We Got On The Road
None Of Us Could Drive!
Police Car Came Along
And They Took Us For A Ride,
And When We Get Home
We're Gonna Get, Gonna Get
Gonna Get Fried!

Uh-Oh, We're In Trouble,
Something's Come Along
And It's Burst Our Bubble
{Yeah, Yeah!} Uh-Oh,
We're In Trouble,
Gotta Get Home Quick
March On The Double!

Uh-Oh We're In Trouble,
{Yeah Yeah!} Uh-Oh We're In Trouble....

Uh-Oh We're In Trouble,
Something's Come Along
And It's Burst Our Bubble!
{Yeah Yeah!} Uh-Oh We're In Trouble,
Book Us A Ticket On
The Next Space Shuttle!

Uh-Oh, We're In Trouble,
Something's Come Along
And It's Burst Our Bubble
{Yeah, Yeah!} Uh-Oh,
We're In Trouble,
Gotta Get Home Quick
March On The Double!

Uh-Oh, We're In Trouble,
Something's Come Along
And It's Burst Our Bubble
{Yeah, Yeah!} Uh-Oh,
We're In Trouble,
Gotta Get Home Quick
March On The Double!


Always amusing to be taken back to a time long ago. This takes me all the way back to high school. But no, it wasn't considered good back then either mind you.
