For example, this song http://crocmusic.com/track/471370/ice_cube/what_can_i_do/http://www.englishforums.com/English/ListeningUnderstandingEnglish-Songs/kgzzb/post.htmMon, 17 Aug 2009 19:49:42 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:866219mr. tomHi In Pakistan and India, very, very few people would be able to understand the wording of this song, including all English teachers. I just happened to speak to a well known Indian author and I asked her if she understood English songs (in general), and her immediate response was no. In a recent workshop of English teachers, the British presenter played this song and gave each participant the copy of the lyrics with a few blanks which he had deliberately created, and which they were supposed to fill as he played the song twice.

At it sounds as if that really is what they're singing. How you spell it I have no idea, but a number of lyric sites do seem to go for "surry" (not that I really trust lyric sites to get spellings correct). Anyway, back to "stoned soul picnic"... as far as I know (which may be not much) this means nothing more than the sum of its parts: "stoned" = under the influence of recreational drugs "soul" = to do with soul music (and/or various other aspects of black American culture) "picnic" = outdoor event or party So, it basically sounds like some sort of outdoor get-together where there's soul music,...http://www.englishforums.com/English/YtLittleDittyRockify/jqqcb/post.htmSun, 22 Jun 2008 22:46:19 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:834956I spent the weekend with Mom and three outta four sibs, and I tell you, I needed a rock n roll YouTube fix. These are all straight rock n roll videos - nothing funny or silly. Jus tgood old (fairly newish) alt rock. And THIS one is from a desert-island cd - Throwing Copper, by Live. A musician's cd - get it now - it's not nearly new (not old tho) but simply fine and wonderful. Get it now! Great licks and lyrics. Probably my fave cd of all time.
