Subject: What is this song?

Written By: Cav on 1/24/2000 at 12:21 p.m.

I don't honestly know if it is an 70's or 80's song but it starts out with someone who sounds like Steve Martin saying "A bird, a Plane a fowl" also in the song I think the lyrics are ".........think I'm trouble ............. " or ........"........on the double........" "I should have known.....................on the double.........." Something like that. Does anybody have a clue as the title and artist?

LOL! Sorry, couldn't help but laugh at the opening line you quoted to this tune. He actually says "A-two, a-three, a-four...", and your "mystery song" is "Trouble" by the one & only Lindsey Buckingham (of Fleetwood Mac fame), a top 10 hit from the Winter of '82. It was off his 1981 debut solo album, "Law and Order". Fortunately, the album is still in print today here in the U.S. on CD...

VH-1 still airs the video for "Trouble" on occasion - great '80s song! :-)

I would have never figured that one out! I really thought it was Steve Martin! I appreciate your help!
