law Mike as a "randy Scouse git"  (roughly translated as a horny slacker from Liverpool). Monkee  Micky Dolenz (qv) heard the phrase when he visited England and  watched the series, and made it the title of a song (appearing on  the "Headquarters" album) that he wrote about the trip. When  "Headquarters" was released in the UK, the record company objected  to the use of the phrase (which didnt appear in the lyrics),  because it was actually somewhat taboo to the British audience, and  a minor scandal broke out. RCA Victor insisted Dolenz give an  alternate title for the song, and he complied by calling it simply  "Alternate Title". While no singles were issued from "Headquarters"  in the US, a single of "Alternate Title" was issued in the UK, and  became a hit in the wake of the scandal.
