And what creature is he meant to be? I always assumed a Gorilla, or something similar, but one review at the time said he was a snake. Are ther any clues in the words? (There is a mention of "trousers" - a common theme through many of the Bonzos songs...) It is funny that Vivian Stanshall started out writing it as a straight song for Matt Munro to record. David

David yes, i always thought that it was a gorilla. Unboogu is surely a Gorilla name if i ever heard one. although "laughed when we bought the ladder". SNAKES AND LADDERS?!?!?!

Thanks, or you can just listen to it if you click on it.
I have got it I think it might be on one of the bootlegs I got recently.

We met at Waterloo She smelt of al-kay-hol I'm a scrumpologist too I'll show you the Hole in the Wall The Hole in the Wall is a pub in Waterloo www.fancyapint.com/Pub/london/hole-in-the-wall/1004Guessing, but perhaps a scrumplogist is a cider drinker? Either that or I've heard it wrong All the best
