Vandaag de Dipsy Doodle opgehaald bij John in Swifterbant (met een T).

Volgens Henk de Jager is de Dipsy Doodle een leuke kast. Ik ken hem niet en heb hem ook nog niet bekeken.

Maar Henk is dé EM deskundige in Nederland en als Henk het zegt..........

Over "Dipsy Doodle" en "Dipsy Bug" zijn in het verleden liedjes gemaakt.

De teksten staan onderaan deze pagina. Ongetwijfeld heeft Williams met deze kast daarop ingespeeld.

De Dipsy Doodle opgesteld en even goed geïnspecteerd.

Eerst was hij helemaal dood maar toen de zekeringen vervangen waren wilde hij wel opstarten en is er licht in de kop en op het speelveld.

De 24 volts op het speelveld zijn er nog niet en ik kon zo snel niet vinden waarom.

Dus nog niet geflipperd.

De Dipsy Doodle gaat wel het nodige werk geven:

1- Het credit mechanisme is uit de kop gesloopt.

2- De kast is deels overgeschilderd. Dat valt op omdat er geel in plaats van groen gebruikt is.

3- Alle rubbers moeten vervangen worden.

4- Een paar fikse beschadigingen op het speelveld en een gebroken plastic.

5- De shooter assembly is gebroken

 

Enzovoort.

Maar, ik vergelijking met wat ik zoal tegengekomen ben valt het nogal mee.

Het belangrijkste is dat de kopruit in goede staat is!

 

Deze kast komt er weer helemaal bovenop.

Alleen nog even afwachten wanneer, want het rijtje wachtenden voor een beurt is wel groot geworden.

The Dipsy Doodle's the thing to beware

The Dipsy Doodle will get in your hair

And if it gets you, it couldn't be worse

The things you say will come out in reverse

Like "You love I and me love you"

That's the way the Dipsy Doodle works

 

The Dipsy Doodle's easy to find

You know it's always in back of your mind

You never know it, until it's too late

And then you're in such a terrible state

Like "The moon jumped over the cow, hey diddle"

That's the way the Dipsy Doodle works

 

Whenever you think you're crazy

You're just a victim of the Dipsy Doodle

Ah, but it's not your mind that's hazy

It's your tongue that's at fault, not your noodle

 

You better listen and try to be good

And try to do all the things that you should

The Dipsy Doodle will get you some day

You'll think you're crazy, the things that you'll say

Like "Rhythm got I and hot am I"

That's the way the Dipsy Doodle works

 

If it gets you, you'll be singin' it

And we'll bet you, you'll be swingin' it

 

The Dipsy Doodle's the thing to beware

The Dipsy Doodle will get in your hair

And if it gets you, it couldn't be worse

Ev'rything you say will come out in reverse

"You love I and me love you"

That is just the way the Dipsy Doodle works

 

Whenever you think you're crazy

You're the victim of the Dipsy Doodle

But it's not your mind that's hazy

It's your tongue that's at fault, not your noodle

 

You better listen and try to be good

And try to do all the things that you should

The dipsy doodle will get you some day

And you'll think you're crazy, the things you'll say

"Violets are red, roses are blue"

Roses, roses, roses, all around you

 

You'll never know it until too late

And then you're in such a terrible state

If you wanna do the Doodle, do the Dipsy Doodle

Doo, doo, doo, do the Dipsy Doodle

Doo, doo, doo, do the Dipsy Doodle

Doo, doo, doo, do the Dipsy Doodle

Do the Dipsy Doodle now

As recorded by Bill Haley & His Comets:

 

The Dipsy Doodle is the thing to beware

The Dipsy Doodle will get in your hair

And if it gets you, it couldn't be worse

The things you say will come out in reverse

Like "You love I and me love you"

That's the way the Dipsy Doodle works

 

The Dipsy Doodle is easy to find

It's almost always in back of your mind

You never know it until it's too late

And then you're in such a terrible state

Like "The moon jumped over the cow, hey diddle"

That's the way the Dipsy Doodle works

 

When you think that you're crazy

You're the victim of the Dipsy Doodle

But it's not your mind that's hazy

It's your tongue that's at fault, not your noodle

 

You better listen and try to be good

And try to do all the things that you should

The Dipsy Doodle will get you some day

You'll think you're crazy, all the things that you say

Like "Rockin' not I and rollin' goodbye"

That's the way the Dipsy Doodle works

 

(Instrumental Break)

 

Well, when you think you're crazy

You're the victim of the Dipsy Doodle

But it's not your mind that's hazy

It's your tongue that's at fault, not your noodle

 

You better listen and try to be good

And try to do all the things that you should

The dipsy doodle will get you some day

You'll think you're crazy, all the things that you say

Like "Roll, rattle and shake alligator"

That's the way the Dipsy Doodle works

That's the way the Dipsy Doodle works
