One of my colleagues at work has been getting reaquainted with 90s dance music, never cared for it much but of course I just had to tease her about this track which has the most ridiulous lyric - "What's she gonna look like with a chimey on her?"
So I had a google around to see if it was just nonsense or had some sort of meaning.
Some sources suggest that 'chimney' is a slang term for a black eye, derived from thyming slang - Chimney stack / smack.
A more amusing version is that it's a euphemism for dropping a house on her ie what a witch!
Any other ideas?
