(3,601 posts)To Question 1: Riders on the Storm Jim Morrison plainly says 'Tagalog Holiday' which means take a vacation in the Philippines, a beautiful country and a wonderful place to visit.
To Question 2: The song is Break on Through and eighty sheep. Morrison sings 'Jiggit! Jiggit! Jiggit! Jiggit!' which by the traditional way of counting sheep is four score or eighty sheep. That method is yan, tyan, tethera, pethera, pimp, sethera, lethera, overa, covera, dick, yanadick, tyanadick, tetheradick, petheradick, bumfit, yanabumfit, tyanabumfit, tetherabumfit, petherabumfit, jiggit!
Then you start over again.
