In Tepid today:

The Cheeky Girl Records
'We are the cheeky girls
We are the cheeky girls
You are the cheeky boys
You are the cheeky boys
We are the cheeky girls
We are the cheeky girls
You are the cheeky boys
You are the cheeky boys'.

Many of us have paraphrased The Cheeky Song (otherwise titled 'Touch My Bum' in A Flat Major), but little until now was known of the record-breaking bibliography underpinning the number. Among 247 sources listed are the following:

1. Sereny, Gitta, Albert Speer, His Battle With Truth (Macmillan, 1995).

2. British Banking Statutes and Reports, 1832-1928 (2 vols. 1929).
3. Papke, David Ray. Myth and Meaning: Francis Ford Coppola and Popular Response to the Godfather Trilogy. Legal Reelism: Movies as Legal Texts. Ed. John Denver, Urbana and Chicago: U of Illinois P, 1996. 2-22.
