Winking your blues away
Ivor Biggun Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All those lonely blues songs, you might feel that you wrote 'em
You might be sad and think that life has kicked you in the scrotum
Be brave and wipe that teardrop from your eye
there's one more remedy you can try

Wanking your blues away
Wanking your blues away
If you haven't had a promise
And you haven't got a sister or a wife
And your brother's not keen
You can get to the promised land
The answer's right there in your hand
Try wanking to the rhythm of life

It's a source of some amusement
that the craft of self-abusement
was invented, so it's thought
by the Greeks and the Westphalians
perfected by Australians
developed by the Welsh into a competitive sport

Wanking your blues away
Wanking your blues away
Shirt on the floor
One hand and a metronome
And lots of boogie-woogie
The Cowman sits there on his farm
With loads of blisters on his arm
Wanking 'til the cows come home


It's time to take your trousers down
Lock the door and go to town
You can wipe away your frown and wank your blues away
Don't worry that you'll lose your sight
Make the world seem gay and bright
WANKERS OF THE WORLD UNITE and wank your blues away

Wanking your blues away
Wanking your blues away
It's a harmless hobby, it's what your right arm's for
And not for drinking lager
The basic kit for masturbation
Is a plonker and a hand and imagination




Keep wanking 'til you just can't wank no more
But don't forget to close the bathroom door

Overall Meaning

The song "Walking Your Blues Away" by Ivor Biggun is a humorous take on the traditional blues genre. The lyrics suggest that instead of wallowing in sadness and loneliness, one can alleviate their problems by engaging in an act of self-love. The chorus encourages listeners to "wank your blues away" as a remedy for their woes.


The first verse of the song acknowledges the universal experience of feeling down and out, but also emphasizes the importance of being brave and taking control of one's emotions. The second verse takes a more explicit turn in recommending masturbation as a solution to one's problems, and even provides some tips for how to do it effectively. The final verse encourages listeners to embrace their wanking habits without shame, and even invites them to join a collective of "WANKERS OF THE WORLD UNITE."


Despite the tongue-in-cheek nature of the song, it touches on important themes of self-acceptance and self-care. It challenges societal norms and encourages listeners to embrace their sexuality without guilt or shame. The song underscores the power of humor to address complex issues and provoke critical thinking.
