The ukulele isn't only the sound of Hawai'i and vaudeville, it's also behind some of the greatest expressions of culture and art from the hundred years or more.
And then there's this.
I've posted a song sheet for this number before, but I was transposing it to C and thought I may as well throw this version out there as well. "Doc" Cox, AKA Ivor Biggun, made it to number 22 in the UK charts in 1978 with his uke-driven single "The Winker's Song (Misprint)", despite / because of being banned by almost every radio station, but this track from the same album is slightly toned down in comparison. Slightly.
Here's the man himself demonstrating why he's considered something of a cult¹:
