Tricks, Points % ✔︎

Also printed on B-Side label:- "Late Start High On Fence" and "Segovia Rules".

On the B-Side the band are individually credited, rather than as 'The Blockheads'
On the sleeve-back they are "ID And The Blocks".

There is another version here, which states on the back cover "Made and produced in England", which is missing from this version.
There is also a version here, that has a slightly different intro on the A-side.

Runouts are stamped except for the etched ”STRAWBERRY”.

        My copy is even groovier on 33 rpm +8.

        I present now for you, the great lyrics:

        In the deserts of Sudan
        And the gardens of Japan
        From Milan to Yucatan
        Every woman, every man
        Hit me with your rhythm stick.
        Hit me! Hit me!
        Je t'adore, ich liebe dich,
        Hit me! hit me! hit me!
        Hit me with your rhythm stick.
        Hit me slowly, hit me quick.
        Hit me! Hit me! Hit me!
        In the wilds of Borneo
        And the vineyards of Bordeaux
        Eskimo, Arapaho
        Move their body to and fro.
        Hit me with your rhythm stick.
        Hit me! Hit me!
        Das ist gut! C'est fantastique!
        Hit me! hit me! hit me!
        Hit me with your rhythm stick.
        It's nice to be a lunatic.
        Hit me! Hit me! Hit me!
        Hit me! Hit me! Hit me!
        In the dock of Tiger Bay
        On the road to Mandalay
        From Bombay to Santa Fe
        Over hills and far away
        Hit me with your rhythm stick.
        Hit me! Hit me!
        C'est si bon, mm? Ist es nicht?
        Hit me! hit me! hit me!
        Hit me with your rhythm stick.
        Two fat persons, click, click, click.
        Hit me! Hit me! Hit me!
        Hit me! Hit me! Hit me!
        Hit me!
        Hit me!
        Hit me! Ow!
        Hit me!
        Hit me!
        Hit me! hit me!

            A very few copies of the UK issue BUY 38 were pressed on red vinyl, probably only running into single figures.

              I recently bought a copy that appears to be mislabeled. The label says Ian Dury but when I play the single it's actually an "Earth, Wind & Fire" single. Anybody else run into this?
