For years I thought Twisted Sister was saying "I can't finda '55!", clearly referring to the DDO and the frustration of roll searching. |

And for the Brits out there...
The musical/song "Half a Sixpence", and a traditional folk song "The King's Shilling." and "How Five & Twenty Shillings Were Expended in a Week". There's also (apparently) a rugby song that includes the lines "If I give you half a crown, Can I take your knickers down". The Irish folk tune "A Ha'porth of Tea".
One could also just about stretch to "On Ilkla Moor Baht'at", get it?

I was just about to say that. It's Sammy Hagar who can't drive 55 and Twisted Sister who can't take it.

jprine I think of him every time I see your name. If you ARE John Prine, we have met several times.
I know a lot of the songs.

how about this one..
"Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat. Will you please put a penny in the old man's hat....if you haven't got a penny then a halfpenny will do, if you haven't got a halfpenny then god bless you"
I haven't got a halfpenny, but I'd imagine that's for an entirely different reason than when the song was first sung.
