Telegram Sam - T. Rex
I could never understand The wind at all Was like a ball of love I could never never see The cosmic sea Was like a bumble bee And when I'm sad I slide. I have never never kissed A car before It's like a door I have always always Grown my own before All schools are strange And when I'm sad I slide. I have never never Nailed a nose before That's how the garden grows I could never understand The wind at all Was like a ball of love And when I'm sad I Slide Watch now I'm gonna slide |

Whatever happened to the Teenage Dream
Surprise surprise, the boys are home My guardian angel's rung down my telephone The heat's on mister, can't you hear them scream Whatever happened to the Teenage Dream The curfew comes at the crack of light The sad old wino aches to dissipate the fright The jet junk jiver speeds past in his machine Whatever happened to the Teenage Dream A broken god from a musty world Sweetly mouthed touched an onyx girl His prison bars were very hard to clean Whatever happened to the Teenage Dream -Yeah The Wizard of Oz and the bronzen thief Ruled my girl with teutonic teeth But all was lost when her mouth turned green Whatever happened to the Teenage Dream Silver Surfer and the Ragged Kid Are all sad and rusted boy, they don't have a gig Believe me Pope Paul my toes are clean Whatever happened to the Teenage Dream Black is black and white is white Some go to Heaven and some get it light Your barber's a groove, but his wig, it screams Whatever happened to the Teenage Dream -Yeah |

A Bolanic revision of Orpheus Descending
Prince of Players, Pawn of none Born with steel reins on the heart of the Sun Gypsy explorer of the New Jersey Heights Exalted companion of cocaine nights 'Cos he's a Dandy in the Underworld Dandy in the Underworld When will he come up for air, Will anybody ever care At an old eighteen exiled he was To the deserted kingdoms of a mythical Oz Distraction he wanted, to destruction he fell Now he forever stalks the ancient Mansions of hell Now his lovers have left him And his youth's ill spent He cries in the dungeons and tries to repent But change is a monster and changing is hard But he'll freeze away his summers in his Underground yard |

Do the monkey wrench, on a persian bench it's a teenage night and the vampires are right And I want to lay my lips on your explosive mouth Picked up Kenny at the art-deco deli, And Zero is a cat with any automated hat And I need to be rid of the fantasies I'm hiding And I want to lay my lips on your explosive mouth It's a shame for a man to hide all the things that do survive from his past When I jump on your horse I gallop the course, And howl like a wolf and I drink up the sky And I beat on my chest just to punk up the rest And I want to lay my lips on your explosive mouth And I want to lay my lips on your explosive mouth It's a shame for a man to hide all the things that do survive from his past |

Oh my Venus loon it'll make you swoon, It'll make you feel good It'll make you feel good. Repeat Verse 1 |

Slim lined sheik faced
Angel of the night Riding like a cowboy In the graveyard of the night New York witch in the dungeon Of the day I'm trying to write my novel But all you do is play Baby Boomerang Baby Boomerang You never spike a person But you always bang the whole gang Mince pie dog-eye Eagle on the wind I'm searching through this garbage Looking for a friend Your uncle with an alligator Chained to his leg Dangles you your freedom Then he offers you his bed Baby Boomerang Baby Boomerang You never spike a person But you always bang the whole gang It seems to me to dream Is something too wild In Max's Kansas City You a belladonna child hiding on the highways On the gateways to the south You're talking with your boots And you're walking with your mouth Baby Boomerang Baby Boomerang You never spike a person But you always bang the whole gang Baby Boomerang Baby Boomerang You never spike a person But you always bang the whole gang Thank you ma'am |

City port, city port, city-city-city port
I went to the city port City port took my blues away I went to the city port City port took my blues away, yes they did I lost all my city cool When I bought your midget show I grew all debonaire When I had the 1980's air, in your hair That's right I went to the city sight A young love took my soul away Peering eyes and Persian skies, removed my eyes And took them right away, took them all away Just like I lost all my city cool When I bought your midget show City Port And it took them, took them all away And it took them, took them all away City Port |

All alone I sit at home
With my chrome guitar Even Michael Mouse He has a house with someone there You handsome bitch, you movie twitch And seranade the dudes that move and Smile so vile and masquerade, they masquerade An adjacent kid with a Jamacian lid And switch-blade knife, steals the Truth from your golden tooth then he Turns you in So you hold hands tight on a marble night And maybe dismissed, but know that Zeus is never loose with his Grecian kiss His Grecian kiss Fiery skies in children eyes Fade into youth bleeding blood and tears On all the ears, that heard your gold So you walk the dog and you stroll the fog On a dome sky earth, and lie too hard Is an English bard, you better hide your tracks Better watch your mind Do it to me baby, now |

To groove is to lubricate your imagination
You can call somebody captain Under pressure you can flip You can be a rock commando But you can't pilot the ship Groove a little baby, groove a little now Groove a little baby, you might know what you want But I'll show you how You can trip the light fantastic Become a space grotesque You can fossilize your thought dreams Behind a rusty desk You might know what you want But I'll show you how You can read the works of Shakespeare In the Academy of Life You can punk the skunks of freedom With you jeweled Etruscan knife |

A distant friend of Johnny B. Goode
Jason B. Sad was a lonely lad His head was a bed for everyone His clothes was his life but his heart was a knife Inscribed on it was "rock 'n' roll is cruel" Take me to school, boy Leave me alone, boy Slice me a bone of the Universe Take me to school, boy Leave me alone, boy Slice me a bone of the Universe Jason got weird and he pierced his ears A gypsy alone in his gallantry He met Shaky Sue, who wore only blue And they shared in their teenage misery Then Jason read books and wore hard looks He swapped Sue for an artisan His winters were long and a fantastic song Grew from his head like a marigold |
