Don Porges is correct. Barry Mackenzie was (is?) the infamous comic 
strip hero in Private Eye. His favorite occupation was drinking Foster's
lager ("Let's shoot a few tubes of frosty Fosters") and consequently
throwing up ("techicolour yawn" or "spew a bucket of prawns"). Barry
had many other similarly pithy homilies which senility has robbed from
what's left of my mind.

"The ice cream truck in my neighborhood plays 'Helter Skelter'."
