Edit 1b for headphones, June 2021/February 2024. A live performance on the BBC television program "Monster Music Mash" in 1969.
From 7th October 1969 till 11th November 1969 a series of six programmes was hosted by Alan Price that went out on Tuesdays afternoon in the weekday children's slot. Alan Price said of the show "I adore working with children... We want to give all the artists on the show the chance to perform two or three numbers, anything they feel like doing". (Children? What was he thinking!) Guests included Fleetwood Mac, Pentangle, Dave and Toni Arthur, The Moody Blues, Magna Carta and Slade. (Fleetwood Mac, The Moody Blues, Magna Carta, yeah, children's material? What were you thinking, Alan?)
OH WELL
(Peter Alan Green)
I can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
but don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to
oh well
now, when I talked to God I knew He'd understand
He said, "Stick by Me and I'll be your guiding hand"
but don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want Me to
