Biografía:
Slapp Happy foi grupo do que hoje se chama "avant-pop" (porém na época estava relacionado a cena Rock in Opposition e posteriormente a Canterbury scene) composto por Anthony Moore (teclados), Peter Blegvad (guitarra) e Dagmar Krause (vocais). Seu som é popular porém sofisticado abarcando elementos do jazz, pop, folk e rock progressivo.
A banda foi formada na Alemanha em 1972. Os membros da banda se mudaram para a Inglaterra em 1974, onde se fundiram com o grupo Henry Cow, mas a fusão acabou logo depois e Slapp Happy dividir-se.

Or is that a job you don't dare do?

We watched a distant drummer flashing
G D C D
on the beat in all his parrot fashions.
G D
Get in line keep in time with the Drum
G
& Don't forget you're nothing yet but water
D
Don't move your feet until the next beat comes
C
One of the laws says pause between
G
I would hate to make the game seem mean
C
Hey my pretty flower can you guess where I've been?
G
Can you guess at all?
F
Well I've been to your rooms and learned
G
you have all the mirrors turned against the wall.

G "D for Drum!"
Listen now to the sound of the Drum -
G
& don't forget we're nothing yet but water.
D
It won't be pleasant when the present time is done
C
testing nightly 'neath a sprightly summer moon
G
your spirit like a jelly in a spoon.
C
Hey ma pretty flower there's a cat in the room
G
& it's not the type you're used to
F
Though I think I led it to the sink
& tried to make it drink
G
it refused to.
