Lyrics:
A great philosopher once wrote
"Naughty naughty very naughty"
Ha ha ha ha ha
There's a guy in the place
He's got a bittersweet face
And he goes by the name of Ebeneezer Goode
His friends call him Eezer and he is the main geezer
And he'll vibe about the place
Like no other man could
He's refined, sublime, he makes you feel fine
Though very much maligned and misunderstood
But if you know Eezer he's a real crowd pleaser
He's ever so good, he's Ebeneezer Goode
You can see that he's mysterious,
Mischievious and devious
As he circulates amongst the people in the place
But once you know he's fun
And something of a genius
He gives a grin that grows around
From face to face to face
Backwards and then forwards,
Forwards and then backwards
Eezer is the geezer who loves to muscle in
That's about the time the crowd
All shout the name of Eezer
As he's kotcheled in the corner,
Laughing by the bass bin
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Has anybody got any veras?
Lovely
Ya ha ha ha ha ha
Ya ha ha ha ha ha
A great philosopher once wrote
"Naughty naughty very naughty"
Ha ha ha ha ha
Ebeneezer Goode, leading light of the scene
Know what I mean - see
He created the vibe,
He takes you for a ride and as if by design
The party ignites like he's comin alive
He takes you to the top, shakes you all around
Then back down, you know as he gets mellow
Then as smooth as the groove
That is making you move
He glides into your mind with a sunny "Hello!"
A gentleman of leisure,
He's there for your pleasure
But go easy on old Eezer
He's the love you could lose
Extraordinary fellow, like Mr. Punchinello
He's the kind of geezer who must never be abused
When you're in town and Ebeneezer is around
You can sense a presence
In the sound of the crowd
He gets them all at it, the party starts rocking
The people get excited it's time to shout loud
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Ya ha ha ha
Ya ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha
Wicked
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
I AM 60,AND LOVE THIS MUSIC.THE SHAMEN FOREVER.
2nd that, at 62 the E's were very good.but e's er a geezer that must never be abused.
60 in one month and still loving this
only the british could have the brass balls to go on top of the pops during drug awareness week and shout E's ARE GOOD 😆
Anybody got any veras 😂
Adam Glasgow - aye, Colin is assuredly a Scot.
Laaavvllleeeeyyy
@3MT e's are good e's are good, there's effin e's are good
Aiberdeen aiberdeen, er fae aiberdeen
The kicker? This song was the number 1 during the "Drug awareness week".
Sure worked, I'd say!
songs like this caused so much controversy but the system just did not understand the youth of that generation and still dont
MizterNice - The system never understood the youth. They tried to, so they can sell to them and squeeze money out of them, but never to actually understand what's behind it.
they said it would rot peoples heads intense doses of ecstasy 10 years they will be cabbages they claimed WRONG ONCE AGAIN im ok living proof of that!!!!
Brits love a bit of irony >:D
Glen Booth Although it should be said with more and more clean synthesis routes being closed by outlawing precursors, more and more crap enters the synthesis process.
What you get today isn't really good E anymore.
Looking back, the controversy this song caused in the media was hilarious. By the time they caught on to the drugs references it was too late. Up yours Daily Mail!
Naughty naughty , he created the vibe , keep you alive 💚🎶
And ..YES!!!
I wonder how many of the Daily Mail staff were (and probably still are) regularly charlied up to the eyeballs?
excellent comment and if peeps didnt click on they must of been born yesterday lol
Fuck the British state! Amirite?
This is crazy. Earlier this year I came out of a coma in April I was in it for 2 months. And this song was on my mind in the hospital. And now I’m listening to it. It’s crazy. I love it. Proper tune. Xxx
I was on a coma for 4 months last year, I can’t relate lv. Hope your doing well lv xxx
UK 🇬🇧 in the 90’s was an epic time to have witnessed. I was 7 when this came out in Manchester . I remember this was blaring everywhere, also my folks house parties dancing to this, happy times for many, no phones, no internet, great music 🎶 😊 🎉
The memories. 90's will forever be the greatest decade ever!!!
Good times, i'm privileged to have been around during the early nineties club scene. Best years of my life.
Best for dance, that's for sure. So many legendary dance tunes come from then.
Lucky for me I stayed drunk during most of the nineties. This music may have caused me to abuse hard drugs.
No way man, listen to the lyrics E's good anyone got any Salmon? No reference to Heroin. You alki fool!!
Salmon is tobacco alki fool
It's 2023 & E's are still good.Lol.Legend of a tune 😊
Not round here they're not lol
April 2023, this is the alarm on my phone 😅 Waking up to it every morning.
Will forever be one of my favourites from the 90's ❤
Brilliant - I might get it for my ring tone as well...great idea..)
This song used to be sung as a Hymn at my school during Assembly. The Headteacher was a massive pillhead though. Figures.
He was naughty naughty very naughty
Fucking top geezer head teacher then lol
Omfg 😷☝️
Wish I had your teacher!!! Made me morning, this! 😁 😁 lol
What school did you go to?😂😂😂
I was a personal trainer at this time ( as well as a podium dancer for MOS and gardening club) sometimes I had to do kids parties and seeing all the under tens singing eeees are good did make me smile
Whaaaaat 😂😂😂
Ahhh the gardening club … loved that place . I don’t remember ….any drugs being used there….honest …
Haha I loved this song when it came out!! I was about six years old running round shouting “E’s are good!” 🤣😂
I didn’t know how right I was haha
Thanks for making me feel old haha I was in me twenties when it came out.
Lmfao
I was 15 and turning 16, good times
Lol 😂😂
"Ladies and Gentleman, please stand for the Essex national anthem..."
Allah Oh Akhbar I think that is the Addaan from the places now!
"Sorted!"
I have only just appreciated how clever these lyrics were! In 92 I was only focusing on one of the stories in this song!! But the geezer is a clever guy!
The 90's, the last decade of any decent music.
The 90's, the last decade of any decent fun.
Na it completely ate shit and died in 2013
@@tnetroP Did I make the most of it? Absolutely, am I paying for it now in my 40's? maybe a little bit.
There was a bit of good music in the 00s but not afterwards, unfortunately.
Synth wave resurgence in the 2010 was decent. A few good artists at least. Chilliwave as well had a good run for a couple years in the early 2010s. Other than that yeah, music has pretty much ran its course. Was good 👍
still makes me smile that they got away with this and even got it to number 1!!
E's are good…….
Nic & Andrea Hills very naughty! Naughty naughty! ;)
Could be cause it's simply true... Keep on smiling
Plenty of songs about drugs... you've never heard Eric Clapton's 'Cocaine'... or 'Golden Brown' by the Stranglers, that song was about hash.
OMG!! I didn`t speak English at that time, and now....wow...I sang this song like crazy without any knowledge...thank you for this wow sensation :D :D
Zsuzsanna Gáspár horse with no name was heroin trip
My dad was born in 68, wasn't intrested in music in the 90's, but said he loved this...
Mainly cause it got to number one even with 'havin' e's are good'.
I remember the UK press getting very upset about this song at the time...'E's are good, E's are good...'
Genius tune.
Why did they get so wound up about vitamins?
@@grumpyoldman3458 'Drug awareness week' the song was released during it
So this is what Judge Rinder was up to in the 90s
lmfai
Best comment i'll read today HAHHAHAHAHAHA
Wtf
Love it.
God I miss the 90s ❤.
A great philosopher once wrote.....this is a bloody good tune.
Didn't take much thinking about that did it 😂😅
This will go down in history like Shakespeare and Dickens. And I speak as someone with an Eng Lit degree
The 1990s was a excellent decade for music and films
Great sound!!
Great lyrics!!
High energy!!
Still fresh!!
Luvd the early 90s music era☺
Still a banging tune to this day - just a shame you will never hear it in someones house ever again absolutely blaring on old KenWood stack system with the subs banging just like you did hear it back in the 90s growing up haha !!!
Timeless track right there guys .........
Bet here are still houses blaring this on their old stack systems from the same time period, maybe even right now except from RUclips and not the cd ;)
Those were the days...
@@jimmuscle2891 fukn oath! 😎
What everyone does t comment on in the genius meta of the lyrics
To this day it’s fantastic - bands like wetleg take the piss but this is so much BETTER
Pioneer❤
Nothing touches the 90s for the onset of warehouse raves and techno 💜👌🏼
Yes ! Also the playlist was yet to be divided into strict genres . You’d hear House , techno , acid, disco, hip house , rave , breakbeat , garage, electro all at the same venue on the same dance floor . Sometimes even the same dj!
God bless The Shamen one of the best bands of the 90's.
That bird on the first chorus is fucking tidy! Phwoar!
***** The young lady on the first chorus is exceptionally attractive! My word!
Haha
Leeds Leeds Leeds., Yeah!!:-Phwoar!:-Nice one mate:-she really got yer going and aroused.I wonder if you ever saw the band live.Then it really would be arousing. James
Heard she's called Mandy...
More info needed
I remember this is the early 90s growing up time flys love this song
Seems like another era..can't believe it's nearly thirty years ago...wow..depressing.
This song, along with most of their work, will forever be a classic and an outright banger
@@Alexoperplexo I remember buying the cassette when it first came out,still have it somewhere, killer tune.
Its now 32 years old.
It still give me a little warm feeling inside to think that this was the number 1 selling single in the country. I miss those times. :-)
Ah, London in the 1990s. Wish I could go back!
Best scene in the 90s was Manchester Liverpool Stoke
@@liam7251 the joy of the 90's was it was everywhere.
@@Daytona955™ Such a cool relaxed decade.
The absolute Best. This song resonated in the Sydney Australia clubs, it was an amazing time. The Shamen are Iconic.
and I STILL cant get over the fact its twenty years since this came out
I can't believe it's 30!
Noo. It's 32 years ago silly
Lol
From the bottom of my heart - I'm so bummed I missed all the fun during the 90's... I was born in 91, and don't get me wrong, theres a lot of cool stuff going on, but seems like the 90's had something special that got lost over the years. To all you 40-50 year olds out there, fucking lucky bastards!
Cheers dude, we had a riot, no dancing holding a phone aloft, just tunes, endless summers and good times, the music gripped you till 8am and beyond. Early 90s were the best, Italia house techno, early rave and dance. We organised massive raves without mobile phones or social media! You couldn't do it now, everything is organised and discussed online and it's all monitored. A DJ, an MC, a set on some pallets, several hundred lads n lasses in a field or warehouse, that was us till dawn.......
E's made the club crowd really friendly, funky, fun and sexy. The friendliness in particular is unmatched to this day.
No1 in drug aware week in 1992, and they are singing "E`s are GOOD", hats off to them, Class!!!!!!!
Es were good Es were good who agrees let's all go back to th 90s!!!
They were indeed good. Loved up times even the Football hooligans gave it a rest, wonder why authority keeps it illegal/unsafe?
THEY DONT WANT US TO HAVE A GOOD TIME ANYMORE!
Es are still good mate
"In years to come we won't remember any of this Rave music." - David Baddiel.
I can’t believe that this got in the charts, let alone get to number one!! Anyone can decipher that the song is about the use of ecstasy!! The same thing happened with Cigarettes and Alcohol by Oasis. Advocating cocaine use!!
Oh my Gosh!!! Your SOOO Right!! We just got to be really thankful that we were part of a life changing ERA. Labrynth,Dreamscape,Helter-skelter, Obsession,Fantasia...... The list is endless of an era that will never be repeated!!! BIG UP ALL THE OLD SKOOL RAVERS!!!!!
Awe man Labrynth, there's a blast from the past :)
OMG!!!! After 30+ years I have finally FOUND this track!!!!!! I've been desperately searching for this, all I remembered was: "Ah ha ha ha?!!" And I thought the lyrics were "Edgerbert-something?!!" I thought I'd never see this again, I also knew that this track was English made as well....Search over, playlist forever!!!!
English is my second language, and I still do not know wtf he is saying.
@kasperjoonatan6014 , it doesn't matter here and besides you can always look up the lyrics here.
First time listening to this and it’s now my favourite song and not even half way through 😮
The singer is like a toned down version of Keith Flint from The Prodigy
Rip i actually made a mistake looking it up thinking that he done this.
RIP Keith - i snowboarded with he and the brothers in 97.
Dry talented geezer. Love the raps 🎶
An English Cartman wtf I’ve literally just gone from listening to the firestarter to this song and then I see this...
Keith Flunt
This Song is A combination of the Prodigy and the Bitmap Brothers.
Although the first weren't around at the conception. One of the best songs of the Shamen, IMO.
Anyone else had this song pop up in their head for last couple days for no reason? Didn't event like it that much, back in the day! ;]
Ahhhh i was completely oblivious to what this was about when it came out and i was 10 years old lol
This reminds me of the old days trying to hit record and play at the same time just before the song started on the Sunday chart show, Life was so much easier then.....
ah yes I remember 1990's, the good old days, down at the club with Ebenezer and his mate Charlie. what fun we had
oh did you know the cousins well too? 😂
2021 still makes me smile brings back so many memories
those were the days!!!! great clubbing days and the e's were really good!
I was 1 when this was out , wish I had been older when these good songs were coming out lol
Just telling my boy hes naughty naughty very naughty lmao forgot about this omg what did we listen to back in the was good days though lol

Llkl9o9ooo9oòò9o99
Im here in 2020. I was born in 1981. I fucking love this tune!!
Im born in 94 and am still busting this track.😂😂
6th year at school. On repeat full-blast. Happy days.
Rise Of The Footsoldier 4 (2019) Brought Me Here
I was 19 years old in Oxford-uk in 1992 . Lots of fun and great memories. This video came randomly!
fooking love this tune reminds me of being a kid xxxx
erm i wish ha im 31 :)
Can't beat old Skool xxxx
Totally brilliant tune and the vocals are well fast....E,s are fucking good..well back then they were awesome.................
back then E's were destroying peoples lives ^^
antonio12aniello
what are you on about, what utter bollox, e,s are fucking great, break down barriers between classes , makes folk free, love, way way better than any other drug except pure 2CB, in my opinion, get out , get high , live and have some wicked memories, dont believe the new papers, utter rubbish, stand in a field with 1000 folk dancing all night e,d up...feel the empathy..im 54 now and i am alive, lived through the 1970,s 1980,s and the great 1990,s E buzz, i have all those memories and yet nothing at all beats free party,s E,s and all those nights up, being with great people who i had never met before, all having a great time...
@@haileysvomit I know plenty who went on to harder drugs after this and a lot of them are dead now, so yeah you can say its as awesome as you like, fact is that its fucked a lot of people over. Anyway fuck all that, the tune is good.
Yeah, i remember this freakin' song.
I was 21 back then 🤘
Stone cold classic. Christmas number one 2020 anyone
2021 and Es are still gd 👍
Epilepsy Alert! I just had 2 seizures while watching this video...but it coulda been the E's I had earlier...
What? Es are good, Es are good!
E's counter seizures. real MDMA does anyway so must have had bunk shit
Diplamatik Juan, behind the song, was drug culture, people would be listening to this while off their fucking heads, not cool, don’t do drugs
The Car Show that's like saying people shouldn't watch fast and furious because people might joyride
Haha, you want seizures you want the Rob Zombie song "Superbeast" music video.
just sawr Mr. C dj last night...and he played really good.Love that guy
I always remember as a kid my dad would randomly sing out “eezer good eezer good he’s ebeneezer good” and I wouldn’t think anything of it as he’d always be singing random songs. When I got to about 15/16 he must have stopped but at the time I wasn’t conscious to the fact. Now I’m older and know the meaning of the song I can see why he stopped saying it as much as I got older and wiser 😂
Обожаю!Это недооцененный шедевр .Мне 47 лет я как девочка танцую с тобой Шаман 💃
Absolute genius!!, it's hard to think that this was 20 years ago. Top song!!!
Still banging my bass bin in 2023
Mad to think this comment was 10 years ago.
I'm born in 91 and discovered this some year ago. Sad that we don't get this kind of music anymore! Such a banger! And E's are still good, just gotta know where to get the good stuff
If I could go back in time I’d go straight to the 90s ! What wasn’t there to like
"And he'll vibe about the place" - vibe, we missed you, we need you now, thanks for occupying 2021...
I'm not a 90s kid myself (1999), but this is an absolute tune. Its this and Move any Mountain.
Shagrid Basher How the hell? You haven't done ecstasy at 16 I hope
Yeah, I haven't, just a huge 90s fan.
Shagrid Basher good taste at 16!
memories , this was such a big epic tune back in the day.. got any salmon!
Sorted!
I must be feeling melancholy for my youth and years gone by. I have no idea why this song and the hippodrome just popped in my head.
Can't believe I used to dance to this song when I was only 2 years old..
Found this by searching for naughty naughty very naughty 😂
Loved how the BBC used this song on children's TV as the sound track against drug abuse. Even back then the BBC were out of touch..
I love this tune, first heard it when I was a young innocent entering college way back in '92....
......Oh yeah. Good times. :D
Best time ever!!!we stapp stapp stapp
and that was when they where good :-D, no idea how they got away with this, but what great memories
Hi G on a Mission., Yes,it was in 1992 and 1993 that they were so well known! I have no idea where you were living back then or how old you were.I was very fortunate to see the Shamen LIVE at the Live Pete Wardman (afternoon) Radio broadcast from the Virgin Megastore,Marble Arch,W1 (along with Pauline Henry who handed me the Sony prize).I also have an interview between Mr C and Judge Jules from 1994 on my 25 hour Metal tape archive. Take care and Enjoy. James
James Turner right there, best days of my life, remember seeing these at a rave in a barn somewhere in Kent in 1990
This still plays on radio I hear it at work. Funny to see the bosses walk past and this is blasting out 😂
they were probably off their faces on E in the olden days
just as good as I remember, always makes you feel good
God this takes me back.
This has been stuck in my head all day LOL still love the dog :)
I did MDMA for the first time a couple of months ago and I tell you, best decision I ever made, such a good experience and so this song has now become one of my favs!
U top druggerrr
get it down ya mate
Some good advice from Mr C
"... But go easy on old Eezer
He's the love you could lose …"
He's not to be abused
I'm Hip Now...What took so long to hear this joint...All new to me, and elated to be hipped up by House Music Defined Recordings Crew out of Los Angeles, Detroit, London!
Best tune in August 1992 by far got any salmon ? Love it ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Anyone mentioned here, that this is just very good track? With nice sounds, guitar riffs, vocals and samples, .. this is just damn good song as it is. No matter if it is about E's. The song is just damn cool.
I agree.
The Shamen's energy and a bit of Beatmasters who carried early '90s dance scene on their backs.
As a 13y/o in school, I was so proud of the fact I knew this word-for-word and could sing it in time to the music perfectly. Sadly I remember doing it during a Science class when the teacher was out of the room.
To think that's not even on RUclips or Facebook!
shit, you were 1 yr older than me, i would have took the piss out of you so badly !
speaking of school, my music teacher used to play keyboard in the shamen
Absolutely ingenious!! Very popular with me and my tribe back in the early 90s! 😎🤣
Teenage in 90s the best decade of music.
Sound man!! I get compulsive urges to sing along with this every time I hear it :)
90's was the final decade of fun and good stuff , most music from 2000 - till now is bullshit .
There was plenty of shit music in the 90's as well, this song is evidence of that.
+OVI-Wan Kenobi So shit that you're listening to it!.
+Reuben Binyamin no fucking way, the underground scene is still amazin
'96 had mostly tripe for music, it was terrible.
nope you're just an out of touch crybaby
They was good back in the day
I was 16 and had NOOOO idea what this song was really about, but it made me crazy whenever it came on the radio.
Just educated my 21 year old housemate to this song, his reaction "Too before my time". Lol, kids today...
Nope just that kids taste is probably Top 40.
I'm 23 and remember this from my childhood even though I was born in 1992 (its release year)..most British born kids around my age would unless T.Vs were banned in their house. lol
Sophie M im 31 and remeber this when i was 7 was like banging choon
Ffssss im 20 and grew up listening to this song as it’s one of my parents favourites...but i never once cottoned on as to what it was about. Just read a vice article explaining it and cant get over how clever it is ahaha. You just don’t get that in music these days... think i was born in the wrong era🙄
Sabrina I feel your pain
Me too
this song is gold i wish i was alive to see it live
I saw the Shamen in 1994 supported by the Utah Saints. A good night"
Cracking track
has anybody got any veras .....laaavllyyy :)
I had no idea what this song was about at the time. Can't believe how audacious The Shamen are!
Totsl samon.pink😊
Wish I could go back,just for one weekend!!
Vintage, 30+ years old, like a good whiskey
