Not Now John question
Can anyone translate this?

s'cusi dove il bar
se para collo pou eine toe bar
s'il vous plait ou est le bar

It it the last verse of Not Now John.

Re: Not Now John question
Something about "where is the bar" (in different languages).

I've read a discussion about these phrases somewhere on this forum, and I just spent the last hour trying to find it (with no luck).

I DID find a rather emotional little battle from a long time ago...but no translation.

I'm sure there is someone who can help.

Read the "I just bought TFC and got pissed off" thread.

Re: Not Now John question
Driven is correct. Anyway, just for the record, the first line is Italian and it's mispelled (should be "Scusi dov'è il bar?"), the third is French and the second one has been in the past the subject of a discussion somewhere on the forums, not sure what language actually is.

Re: Not Now John question
Yes indeed this has been discussed elsewhere but, unlike Driven, I can't be arsed to look for it.

As a final point, Roger DOES speak the line in profane English at the end of his polyglot tirade: "Oi! Where's the f**king bar, John?"

Byron never eschews the finery of the lingual tapestry that is 'english'.

Gotta love the bloke. He's got his standards, man.
