Flying The Flag

It's the middle of May and all the countries across Europe grabs their national flag and wave it about like some sort of demented xenophobic as The Eurovision Song Contest lurches into view again.
For those outside of the continent, the competition is for all nations in Europe who perform a song which all the other nations vote on to pick a final winner in a televisual galafest.
The most asked question is usually 'How long has Israel been in Europe?' but as that cheerful tune about Nuclear Annihilation got booted out at the Semi-Final stage along with the two favourites (Denmark & Switzerland), this year we ask can the UK actually win the whole shebang?
In our wisdom we have put forward as the UK entry a song called "Flying The Flag" by a group so camp that they should be in a field surrounded by boy scouts ging-gang-goolying.
The risque lyrics are sure to be lost on the rest of the continent as one of the group asks with a wink "Would you like something to suck on for landing sir?"
As last years winners, Finland get to host this years final and the favourite is the glamrock like Swedish entry and I will stick my neck out and say i expect the bouncy UK entry to push for the top place.
Come on Scooch, let's teach Johnny Foreigner how to write a song.
Ba da da, Ba da da, Ba da da ,Ba da da , flying the flag, all over the world.....

Are you saying i should lay off the hallucinogenics?
The Scooch song is a bit naff but it isn't THAT bad.

I'm saying your post sounds like you wrote it while you were hallucinating.

Absent are any references to let the rest of us know what the hell you are talking about and I, for one, can't be bothered to Google right now.

Try the blue rose blotter acid. It's much better.

Sorry if 'For those outside of the continent, the competition is for all nations in Europe who perform a song which all the other nations vote on to pick a final winner in a televisual galafest. ' does not explain it enough for you.

Oh, well, maybe I took too much of the stuff back when...
