Heck, this is so funny to hear. We were there, but I didn't know anything about Jackie Lynton - hadn't heard of Savoy Brown then. But my girlfriend at the time didn't like his language at all. At one point, he said something like: "You're all fuckin' bastards, you lot!", and she was disgusted! Of course I got the brunt of it, not him. We were there to see Schenker really. The other funny thing is that we couldn't see Jackie Lynton - he was at the front of the stage rather than on it. Thanks for giving me a hoot. :)

OMG OMG OMG I've been looking for this for years!!!! What FAB memories...1982 was my first Reading Rock Festival and the whole weekend fantasic, not to mention extremely loud...but the volume (of the CROWD) near the stage during the Hedgehog Song was absolutely DEAFENING! Thank you...I'm an extremely happy Granny tonight!! :)

lyrics?

[@davidhorney]

An ‘edgehog named Dan set up home in a can, When he got turned out of his BUCKET, When asked to retort, the ‘edgehog said with snort, "I’ve only one thing and that’s F*** IT!” This upset Doug who was a redish brown slug, and known to be incredibly blunt. Out slid his head and with a slobber he said "Whoever turned Dan out's a C**T!” Andrew the ant was half way through a good w**k when he was stopped by Tommy the duck, Tommy said “wadaya think”, Andrew gave him a wink, He said “Tommy, I don't give a f***!” "I don't give a f*** Oh I don’t give a f***, Oh Tommy I don't give a f***. Oh I don't give a f***, I don't give a f***, Tommy I don't give a ****" Olly the owl scratched his head with a scowl Said “I thought that me bucket was an ‘edgehog’s castle" "there's only one thing to do with the man who made him move, that’s poke me beak right up his a*****e!” News travels fast, but still Tom Tortoise was last, And when he heard he near threw a fit. He said “You woke me in Jan, to tell me about Dan,” “When quite frankly, I don’t give a s***!” Oh this isn't the end of the story my friends, a bad deed is seen to by God. And the one who moved Dan (fancy kicking a little hedgehog out, eh?) was by a bus over-ran and they all shouted “F*****g good job!” Oh it was a f****n good job, oh a f*****n good job, they all shouted f*****g good job f*****g good job, f*****g good job, They all shouted f*****g good job.
