Neil Innes (December 9, 1944 - December 29, 2019) was an English writer and performer of comic songs, best known for playing in the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band and later The Rutles. He was also known as "The seventh Python", something Michael Palin himself told the press.


Quotes[edit]

  • How sweet to be an idiot
    At my back
    With no fear of attack
    As much retaliation as a toy.
    • How sweet to be an idiot (1973).
