Right now, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
Paradise by the dashboard light
Teenage… had a race for the night time
Spent my cash on every high I could find
.
Rightly or wrongly …always takes me back to being 17
“Do you remember the 21st night of September?”
Brilliant opening line
Now the rovin’ gambler he was very bored
He was tryin’ to create a next world war
He found a promoter who nearly fell off the floor
He said I never engaged in this kind of thing before
But yes I think it can be very easily done
Hey, white boy, what you doin’ uptown?
Hey, white boy, you chasin’ our women around?
Oh pardon me sir, it’s the furthest from my mind
I’m just lookin’ for a dear, dear friend of mine
Is she really going out with him?
Ah!
I got a feeling inside of me
It’s kind of strange like a stormy sea
I don’t know why, I don’t know why
I guess these things have got to be
I gotta new rose, I got it good
Guess I knew that I always would
I can’t stop to mess around
I got a brand new rose in town
Holly came from Miami F.L.A.
Hitch-hiked her way across the U.S.A.
Plucked her eyebrows on the way
Shaved her legs and then he was a she…
Dancing Queen.
Yeah!
Got no place to go
I’m tired of walking up and down the street all by myself
No love left for me to give
I try and try but no-one wants me the way I am
Why should I pretend I like to roam from door to door
Maybe I’ll just kill myself, I just don’t care no more
Because I’m not satisfied
Everything I tried
I don’t like the way life has been abusing me
In the days of my youth
I was told what it was to be a man
Now I’ve reached the age
I’ve tried to do all those things the best I can
No matter how I try
I find my way to do the same old jam
We’re leaving together,
But still it’s farewell
And maybe we’ll come back
To earth, who can tell?…
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry…
‘A long time ago
Came a man on a track’
‘Hey hey mama dig the way you move’
‘People try to put us down’
Ships in the Night by Be Bop Deluxe…the first band I discovered without influence of others and the first time I went to a gig by myself…
Sup up your beer and collect your fags
There’s a row going on down near slough
Get out your mat and pray to the west
I’ll get out mine and pray for myself
and this…
Naughty boys in nasty schools
Headmasters breaking all the rules
Having fun and playing fools
Smashing up the woodwork tools
‘Ride a White Swan’ and ‘Meet on the Ledge’
Hey Hey we’re The Monkees
Fairies wear boots and you gotta believe me!
"Born To Be Wild" with Steppenwolf.
