About that bone in the nose.....see Ray Steven’s song about “Ahab the Arab” & his girlfriend Fatima. I had about forgotten that silly song until I saw the reference to a bone in the nose. Find it on You Tube.

== About that bone in the nose.....see Ray Steven’s song about “Ahab the Arab” & his girlfriend Fatima. I had about forgotten that silly song until I saw the reference to a bone in the nose. Find it on You Tube.

I loved that song, from when I was a kid... so I looked up the lyrics, here’s a snippet that includes the line you quoted:

...
Well, he brought that camel to a screechin’ halt (verbal screeching sound)
In the rear of Fatima’s tent
Jumped off Clyde, snuck around the corner
And into the tent he went.
There he saw Fatima layin’ on a zebra skin rug with...
“Rings on her fingers and
Bells on her toes and a bone in her nose ho, ho.”
There she was, friends, lyin’ there in all her radiant
Beauty, eating on a raisin, grape, apricot, pomegranate,
Bowl of chittlin’s, two bananas, three Hershey bars,
Sipping on a RC co-cola listenin’ to her transistor,
Watchin’ the Grand Ole Opry on the tube, readin’ a Mad
Magazine while she sung, “Does your chewing gum lose
It’s flavor?” Yeah, Ahab walked up to her and he say,
(imitate Arabic speech), which is Arabic for “Let’s twist
Again like we did last summer, baby.!!” Ha, ha, ha!!
You know what I mean! Whew! She looked up at him from off the rug,
Give him one of the sly looks,
She said (suggestive giggles, then outright laughter) “Crazy, crazy, crazy baby!”
Yeah, and that’s the story ‘bout Ahab the Arab
The sheik of the burnin’ sand
Ahab the Arab, the swingin’ sheik of the burnin’ sand...
