Subject: Lyrics: Figuring out Bollocks Brothers - Harley Davidson of a b*ahem*itch.

Written By: Foo Bar on 07/17/05 at 3:41 pm

Remember folks, for best results, stick some guess as to the lyrics into the Subject: line.
This came from someone else asking for lyrics help on this board.  Here's the easy 80%
of the problem, let's see if we can't figure out the rest of it!

And now, let's see what I can cram through the filters:

BOLLOCK BROTHERS: HARLEY DAVIDSON OF A BITCH!

Harley David-son of a *cough*itch!

yeah, sorry about the filters, they can be a total pain for things like this.

Have you ever checked out the forum at top40db.net?  They live for challenges like this.  I've helped them transcribe dozens of songs (they're doing the entire Hot 100 from 1955 onwards), and there's more than a few people who are good at this type of thing.

Thanks for the tip, ChuckyG -- I'll give 'em a try.  Still only about halfway through figuring out Double Dutch Bus (erm, I'll bump my post here in the meantime), which has been driving me up the wall for years.

And now for something completely different, if your signature refers to "Moxie" brand soda pop from way-back-when, a friend ordered a case and shared some a few months ago.  I'd never tried it before, but yeah, it's good stuff!

D'oh!  My bad.  Couldn't type and rewind, and maybe I accidentally pasted over something when re-censoring it last time.

So - the English version - 3:54

Harley Davidson of a b*oing*itch!
If we get stoned tonight, fly like a witch (yep, really a witch this time :)

Get on my Harley, you daughter of a b*oing*itch!

Marlon Brando rode his Harley, that wild son of a b*oing*itch!

(( cheerleader vocal ))
P? E? AEM?  (not sure of letters)
B? E? AEM?  (still not sure of letters)

Did I tell you I like young girls, big big t*fweep*its!

------ And in French!  Yes, I've since come across an all-French remix at 3:00, but since I barely speak a word of the language, here's all I was able to figure out:

Harley Davidson of a b*oing*itch!
He', dis donc? (indecipherable)
Harley Davidson of a b*oing*itch!
Qu'est-ce tu fais sur ma Harley  ("What are you doing on my Harley?")

Harley Davidson of a b*oing*itch!

I stumbled across this thread in my own quest to decipher the lyrics. After a lot of listening and research, I have got all but a couple of words down. They are in red. It is mostly the French lines. I do not speak any French.

The "cheer" is sampled from Cruisin' 1965 - Increase Records - INCM-1965 and was originally on 93 KHJ in Los Angeles with Robert W. Morgan. It was a girl named Barbara from Magnolia High School in Anaheim, California calling to try out for cheerleader and wanted a "good-luck wish".

I am sure that the all French version that Foo Bar found was by Serge Gainsbourg and is the original version of the song. The lines that are in French at the end of the Bollock Brothers version are probably from this also. (There is also a Bollock Bros. version w/o the French Ending). I ran it through an online translator for a literal translation.

Harley David Son of a B***h,
Hey dis donc David fils de pute, (Hey say threads of pute therefore David)
Qu'est ce que tu fais sur ma Harley, (What you make on my Harley)
Harley David Son of a B***h,
Si tu veux pas que je te bute, (If you want not me to support)
Harley David Son of a B***h,
Faudrait me la rendre et vite fait, (Would need to return it to me and quickly made)
Harley David Son of a B***h,
En plus quand tu as fumé du jute, (On top of that when you smoked of ooze with juice)
Harley David Son of a B***h,
Tu sais plus très bien ce que tu fais, (You know more very well what you make)
Harley David Son of a B***h,
Ca y est t'as le gourdin t'est en rut, (This is you whizz there the bludgeon is you in rut)
Harley David Son of a B***h,
Ses vibrations te font de l'effet hein hmm, (His vibrations play you the effect sorry hmm)
Harley David Son of a B***h,
Qu'est ce tu decides tu vas aux putes, (That this hushing up is decides you go to putes)
Harley David Son of a B***h,
Ou alors tu vas voir les gays, (Where then you are going to see the gays)
Harley David Son of a B***h,
Hey dis donc David fils de pute, (Hey say threads of pute therefore David)
Harley David Son of a B***h,
Qu'est ce que tu as fait de ma Harley, (What you made of my Harley)
Harley David Son of a B***h,
Tu aurais du prevenir ta chute, (You would have your fall of the prevenir)
Harley David Son of a B***h,
Tu es mort sur le coup, c'est bien fait, (You died outright, it is made well)

  I do not speak any French.

Merci beaucoup! ("Thank you, bigtime!"), and not just for sourcing the Cruisin' 1965 sample!  I speak just enough French to translate a couple of the important words.  For instance:

"Hey dis donc David fils de pute", (Hey say threads of pute therefore David)

For instance, I know that "fils" is French for "son", and that anyone who knows anything about swearing in Spanish (which is closely related to French) can take a wild guess at "pute", and I can probably take these to someone who does speak French, and get a good explanation of the idioms used in the other lines.
