Hello! I'm Lyrkit!

I tried many ways to memorize English words and found the most effective one for me!

We already have all the words of the songs that we have heard throughout our lives in our memory. We simply did not pay attention to them, but we all already hear them!

I noticed that when you learn a new word from a song that you have already heard before, you already know the translation of this word forever and you will never forget it!

I want to share this method with you. So, the scheme is as follows.

We find songs that we have already heard.

We add all unfamiliar words from them.

We pass mini tests of memory games. done

Now that you know a lot of words, you will very quickly come to know the whole language!

I bet you'll be surprised how effective this method is!)

The Bishop And The Actress

 

The Bishop And The Actress

(album: Mr. Joe Jackson Presents: Max Champion In 'What A Racket!' - 2023)


Oh, the bishop and the actress
Had a very bold affair
Or it would have been, if they were seen
Out in the public square
Instead it was in secret
They cuddled and they kissed
And spread fresh gossip with each tender tryst

But that was back in days of bawdy fun
When fair folks felt no fear of quip or pun

When you heard a saucy sort
Say I like a spot of sport
But it happens to be hard to fit it in
Or someone was on the job
Or was polishing a knob
Or debating the debaucheries of old Nell Gwynn

When you heard 'Fainting fits!'
Other naughty bits!
Or 'Cor what a lovely pear!'
The bishop and the actress were still there!

[?]

Said the bishop to the actress
"It's you that I adore
But we mustn't meet out on the street
I'll come in your back door."
Said the actress to the bishop
"Proceed with caution there
A man in your position must take care."

But nowadays there's trouble all around
Where entendres that are double are still found

When you hear a cheeky chap
Say I like a bit of slap
And tickle, or a tremble of the knee
When something's getting sticky
Or somebody likes a quickie
Or is flashing us a wink and going 'Tee hee hee'
Wielding a chopper!
Squealing 'What a whopper!'
'Deliveries in the rear!'
The bishop and the actress are still here!

Did you add all the unfamiliar words from this song?
