I feel a bit like banging my head against a brick wall, to be honest. :wall:

Everyone is waiting for the Lethe's scan of Literally, I think. The question is where Lethe is.

Let's stonk to the rythm of the honky tonk, stick a red nose on your conk, and lets stonk!

This fills me full of dread. Can't see how Neils vocals will use this phrase effectively tho hopefully the song will use the title similarly to that of regret by new order???

The Stonk
Words and Music by Joe Griffiths/Hale & Pace
Good evening, here is the six o'clock stonk

All over the nation there's a brand new craze
You see it going on wherever music plays
It's funky and it's punky and it's impolite
You can do it by day but it's better at night
S.T.O.N.K.

Let's stonk, to the rhythm of the honky tonk
Stick a red nose on your conk
And let's stonk

Well you can play the fiddle with a lump of cheese
Or make the Taj Mahal out of mushy peas
Or microwave a pussy cat for your tea
But it's better little baby if you stonk with me

S.T.O.N.K.
Let's stonk, to the rhythm of the honky tonk
Stick a red nose on your conk
And let's stonk

And now here are some great stonkers of our time
Nice to see you, to see you "Stonk"
Read my lips, I'm a stonker
Ich bin ein stonker
It's one small step for man, but a giant stonk for mankind

Let's stonk, if you're skinny or if you're fat
Let's stonk, if you're on the way to wearing a hat
Wrong side down if you think you're a bat let's stonk
They're stonking in the offices and in the shops
The robbers are even stonking with the cops
Grandma's stonking as she stokes the fire
The boyos are all stonking in the male voice choir
S.T.O.N.K.

Let's stonk, to the rhythm of the honky tonk
Stick a red nose on your conk
And let's stonk

Let's stonk, stonky stonky
Yeah yeah yeah let's stonk, stonky stonky, nose on your conky
Let's stonk, stonky stonky, hubba hubba hubba
Let's stonk, stonky stonky
Stick a red nose on your conk
And let's stonk
And let's stonk
Don't be a plonker when you can be a stonker
Let's stonk

Hey are you stonking?
Are you asking?
I'm asking!
I'm stonking!

Let's stonk, rhythm of the honky tonk
Let's stonk
Let's stonk

Officer, I'll come quietly
Well that would make a change
And one final word from Jacques Coustonk
Gurgle

So... this confirms my worst fear... the album will be definitely called "Horny".

Just kidding... maybe they will too.


Note/Plea: Please God save us.

He's taking the piss folks, i know the name of the forthcoming single so i can confirm the new single isn't called 'Stonk'. So you may now all calm down. :roll:

As Kermit said, that definition of stonk is the first thing I thought of. When I was a kid an erection was called a "stonk on".

I can still remember being sat in a classroom where there was a display of dinosaur pictures drawn by kids from other classes - Tyranosaurus Rex, Diplodocus, Triceratops etc. Someone had drawn a huge penis on one, scribbled out the dinosaurs name & written Stonkasaurus instead. It still makes me smile even now :wink:
