ok, this is utterly trivial but it's really getting to me now. I just need a keen eared individual to sort me out and I'll sleep at nights again.

There's a Pot Noodles ad on at the mo set in Mexico.
A group of mexicans serenade a young brit couple at their table and it turns nasty for the fella, it's alright, no award winner but there you go.

There's one line in the song that I can't get. I've listened, concentrated, got sarah to listen etc but to no avail. Please help.

The song begins:
"Oh English girl you're so young and so ..... (blah blah blah)"
so far so good, then it get a bit faster
"But secretly he is bored with you... (blah blah blah) the back street action"
still alright.

THEN it gets faster still and here's the line I just can't get.
"He can't resist - something something
something something- pot noodle mess"

The second set of 'somethings' I can get, I just can't remember them here, it's the first two after "he can't resist"
it sounds like he's singing "He can't resist the city suggests" but that makes no sense. Or, "He can't resist the citizen chelsea" again, no sense.

please, someone, listen and tell me what it is. I won't make a big deal and I may be the only person who can't get it, or cares at all. You won't see me dancing up to bed, you'll just get a thanks and the whole sorry business will be forgotten.

If you go to you can download the advert and play it using Windows Media player. Even though the words that Paul gives are probably correct I agree with Ely that it sounds more like 'city ....' than 'Seedy Sanchez', but since it's the Seedy Sanchez Pot Noodle then I suppose it must just be the singer's pronunciation.

Ely lad life in the fast lane aye chum,you must learn to chilli out it's all subliminal.You can only find the answer by purchasing the Mexican chilli pot noodle it has all the lyric's on the back of the container bar the ones you cannot discern.You then have the chance to win a holiday to Mexico for you and the lovely Mrs Whitley if you can supply a fitting and amusing line.

I think it actually says "he can't resist, the city suggests the Mexican Pot Noodle best....". It kind of makes sense in a strange way. It's like the earlier ad where the guy used to go around asking these women if they "Pot Noodle". In this case, this guy's on holiday, bored, people suggest Pot Noodle, and the result is the mariachi band... You can check out the download: http://www.ubfoods.co.uk/about/adverts.asp. I was so pleased I could download it because it's one of my favourite ads. Plus I could memorize the words :) [%sig%]

yes but if you google properly the first result you get takes you to the lyrics supplied by mark gull. google is similar to early geek speak. GIGO. garbage in garbage out.

English girl you're so pale and so lovely/ on holiday with your proud man/ But secretly he's bored with you/ He want it filthy and dirty and more rude/ And when you sleep he creep into town/ To look for the backstreet action/ He can't resist the Seedy Sanchez/ The Mexican Pot Noodle mess/ And as he swallow, he shout "Oh yes"/ Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes, OH YES! My pleasure.
