The Python's song Sit on my Face has evolved into Cum in my Mouth. Renoux is full of respect for the Python's "irreverence" and claims that "Cum in my Mouth is the next step. This is what they would have written today. And they really laughed when they saw how we'd translated that song." "

William Christie
From Christie. William Christie. Traditional ballad airs, Volume 1. Edinburgh: Edmonston & Douglas, 88 Princes Street, 1876. http://books.google.com/ebooks?id=SowwAQAAIAAJ The ballad is sung on the Pentatonic scale, "noted in 1850 from the singing of the old woman in note p.42." The ballad was "written from her recitation. In another instance of a ballad found sung different from the way it is published. As far as Christie could tell, the ballad was sung "by the old woman's father and grandfather; and, if so, it may thus be traced to the middle of the last century [i.e. 18th cent.]. Mr. Buchan gives a version of the ballad, "Brown Robyn and Mally," II, 299, which has not the final catastrophe here given. In his note II, 346, he says, -- 'My informant says,-- Robert Steward was the real name of Brown Robyn, the bird that sang so sweetly in the orchard, and was gardener to the lady's father, a gentleman of great fortune on the banks of the Tweed.' &c. &c." p. 136

same, p.42. The woman was "in Buckie, (Enzie, Banffshire,)...She died in the year 1866 at the age of nearly 80 years. Her father, long resident in Buckie, where fisherman and labourers have 'tee-names' had the 'sobriquet' --"Meesic' (Music)--given to him in the end of last century by the populace, thus indicating his fame as a ballad-singer."
