"Leroy"
(spoken:) "Leroy... and his Campus Queen, what she means, what she means"
Leroy was a cat, always knew just where he sat
In his rise up to riches and fame
The chick that he'd choose, would have dollars to lose
And a love, lotsa love in her heart for his name
One girl that he'd seen was the Campus Queen
She had looks and her Daddy had lotsa loot
So he made her his aim, in his heartless game
He had looks, he had nerve, boy was he cute
He craved a FLAT TOP WINNER, WITH A 2 SPOT DIMMER
And a roof that rolled back for the sun
Then add a V-8 HOOD, LOTSA CHROME ON THE HUB
SPEED that says 160 and some, ah that's fast
With his charm and his poise, he out classed all the boys
In the race for her hand he secured
He met her Mum face to face, now she adored all his grace
His place at their table was assured
"My boy" said her Pa, "Now what you need is a car, call me Dad
Gee whizz, you're my son"
Get a 2 toned flyer, with white walled tyres, and a gas tank
You make sure it's got plenty of gun
(REPEAT CHORUS x 3)
You know, I'm really beginning to appreciate the sly, sarcasm of The Family's music........this one makes me laugh....I still like Desiree better (with her ruby red lips!)
ReplyDeletePutting the CD into the Drive as we speak-
ReplyDeletePaul, the Youngster that I work with, lived down the street from some old timer like yourself, that seems to have had a great effect on the young man....God help him!
OK I listened to the whole Album-I see where mr. Lennon would love 'em-like the Who meets Firesign Theatre-
ReplyDeleteYou got any "Atomic Rooster"?
Earlier family is generally better, I think.
ReplyDeleteThough Desiree, on this album is great.
Ask him if he's got "Music From a Dolls House", or "Bandstand" or "Anyway"
"Anyway" is probably my favourite.
Atomic Rooster, no, not got.. King Crimson? Deep Purple I can do, and many others.
