If Music Could Talk |
| Make sure! |
| Taking cover in the bunker tonight |
| Waiting for Bo Diddley’s headlights |
| I feel alright |
| Gotta Fender Stratosphere |
| I can do anything tonight |
| It’s in neon lights an' global rights |
| Frank? |
| He’s on the phone |
| There ain’t no German girl outside |
| But who cares when its warm inside? |
| With music |
| Special mystery of music tragically |
| Exchanging slaves for majesties |
| Modern waves of tragedy |
| Packing a to pience colt pair of shoots |
| A shiny grey mexican suit |
| The blue eyed traffic can sashay by |
| 'Cos tonight the sailor boys have hit Shanghai |
| The kick-out traffic goes creaking by |
| I smash my glass and shout shanghi |
| My drummer friend comes shooting by |
| He said Errol Flynn will never die |
| Oh no! |
| Who am I to question why? |
| And are you lonesome tonight |
| And do ya need a country cowboy |
| Who’s just thin and tight in those |
| Brrrr bus depot jeans |
| With a squirt resistant stud stud |
| Hey stoner |
| Get over there in the spliffbunker one |
| Becos London Bridge was sold somehow |
| But it was too old anyhow |
| When Uncle Sam has broken down |
| We’ll make him down in old Japan |
| Say yeee |
| Well there ain’t no better blend |
| Than Joe Ely and his Texas Men |
| Where the wind blows |
| I ain’t seen none like that scenery |
| You can see from a bus if you pay the price |
| Wave my arms around |
| Flag one of those taxi’s maybe |
| I saw a girl somewhere somehow |
| Forever sticks in my mind somehow |
| I’ve just got three lines |
| And a pair of two’s |
| Like a lucky roll of dice that you |
| You cast |
| If music could talk! |
| Which means |
| Whatever your mind can bring |
| Likethe apple fell off the tree |
| Pah! |
| Fell right on his head |
| Yeah many years ago |
| There was a man who said |
| I am a shaman |
| A voodoo shaman |
| Got in trouble so he’s going out |
| Mixing up and Haiti! |
| Oh! |
| And the crickets |
| Buddy Holly said it was |
| Brrr Brrr yiii! |
| If music could talk you know |
| I feel kinda lonely |
| Standing out on the floor |
| Of Electric Ladyland… |
| Cos this is a good question Samson |
| Are you partly Arabic? |
| Chi man! |
| Whatcho all about |
| I don’t want to I can’t hope to |
| Say it all in one go |
| Occasionally once or twice |
| A day I feel alive enough to say |
| Let’s hear what the drummerman’s |
| Got to say about |
| He said is it Errol Flynn’s birthday or not? |
| Sept 12 until October |
| If they pack 2 piece |
| Colt pair of shoots |
| We got the shiny grey Mexican suits |
| I’m just wasting a great big |
| Corporation and the entire fund |
| The girders of Wall Street |
| And thetemples of money |
| And the high priests |
| Of the expense account |
| And Im wasting the whole thing |
| I come down in Yamaha-ha |
| They make the best pianos-time to step-up |
