I was driving one day, in the early 1990s, singing along with Elton John, “love I feel it in my hands, I can tell by the things I could do with another man…” as I had since I was a little kid, when I suddenly realized that probably wasn’t what he was saying. It still sounds like that is what he is saying.
I see quite a lot of Elton John in these answers, maybe he just didn’t enunciate.
One of the earliest websites I remember was like scuse me while I miss this guy dot com and it was people sharing what you’re looking for. Check the way back machine
The title and the lyric are both “brimful of Asha”, which has a double meaning. In the singer’s native language ‘Asha’ means hope, and is also the name of an iconic Bollywood singer/dancer.
What I heard was “grim poodle basher”. Obviously it wasn’t right, but I couldn’t figure out the actual words just by listening harder.
