Hide the Sausage
Ivor Biggun Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well there's a brand new dance
Everybody's trying to do
It's better than the pogo
The shimmy or the boogaloo
You can do it by yourself
But it's much more fun with two
So come on everybody
Let's go nuts and screw
And this is just what you do

You've got to...

Hide the sausage
Come on and hide the sausage
It's time to hide the sausage tonight
You've got to sink the winkle
It's really very simple
To straighten out your wrinkle tonight
Come on let's play mums and dads
The moon is shining bright
Come on everybody and hide the sausage tonight
Get it right out of sight

It's a dance you can do on the sofa
It's a dance you can do in the park
You can do it round the back of Sainsbury's
If you're quick and you do it when it's dark
You can do it backwards, frontwards and sideways
Provided that you're over sixteen (I am... next birthday)
You can even do it standing up, I've seen it in a magazine
But you've got to be keen

When you...
Hide the sausage
Come on and hide the sausage
It's time to hide the sausage tonight
You've got to sink the winkle
It's really very simple
To straighten out your wrinkle tonight
Come on let's play mums and dads
The moon is shining bright
Come on everybody and hide the sausage tonight
Get it right out of sight

Well a little chippolata
That points down to your toes
Is as good as a big Frankfurter
That reaches up to your nose
And if it's a Wiener Schnitzel (Mein Gott)
Or a hot dog stuffed in a bun
Or a big black pudding
Come and do it everyone
You can join in the fun

Don't be a wanker just...
Hide the sausage
Come on and hide the sausage
It's time to hide the sausage tonight
You've got to sink the winkle
It's really very simple
To straighten out your wrinkle tonight
Come on let's play mums and dads
The moon is shining bright
Come on everybody and hide the sausage tonight
Get it right out of sight

Everybody
Hide the sausage, come on and hide the sausage
Hide the sausage, come on and hide the sausage

Let's all conceal the saveloy
Let's go barmy with the salami
Let's put the toad in the hole




Would you like to play a tune on my pork clarinet?
Get it right out of sight

Overall Meaning

The song "Hide the Sausage" by Ivor Biggun is a humorous and explicit song that depicts a brand new dance that is better than the pogo, shimmy, or the boogaloo. The song's lyrics suggest that the dance is best done with two people, and that it can be done anywhere, including the sofa, park, or even around the back of Sainsbury's in the dark. The lyrics also mention various sausage-related innuendos like Chippolatas, Frankfurter, Wiener Schnitzel, hot dog stuffed in a bun, and black pudding.


The song's meaning is very clear, it is about sexual intercourse indicated through the use of metaphors related to sausages that are best hidden (or concealed) and played with in secret. The song encourages listeners to let loose, have fun and join in on the dance craze while reminiscing about "playing mums and dads" with the moon shining bright.


The suggestive lyrics of the song caused controversy upon release, and it became widely known in the UK as a novelty song for its explicit content. Despite mixed reception, the song has been used in several films and TV shows.
